I could be wrong, but the Chicago gang violence is between bloods, crips, and Mexican/El Salvador drug players. It’s black-on-brown-on black.

Thugs breaking glass are not a concern for the President of the United States. They are a local law enforcement issue unless the local police request help in arresting all those criminals. Don’t make a federal case out of local thugs being thugs.

Why should he acknowledge rioting criminals that the local and state government could take care of, if they had the will to do so?

For a president who has record low favorability ratings, particularly among black voters, Trump's silence seems to confirm one of their biggest fears about his administration: that Trump does not care about the challenges affecting black Americans. No, he just doesn't give a sh!t when useless people with too much time on their hands conduct demonstrations over bullsh!t that isn't important on a national scale.

Well, for one thing, no matter what President Trump says; the left will turn it into something ugly and lie about it so why should he? It’s an internal matter at St. Louis.

... President Trump still hasn't said anything. Because the protesters rioters don't have a legitimate gripe. They just can't handle the truth.

What does he need to ‘acknowledge’? That a man was acquitted and we are a nation of laws not mobs? Seems to me the protestors are the ones who need to acknowledge - the ruling of their peers.

Good. I got tired of Obama commenting on every single thing that happened in the world. Nothing wrong with Trump staying quiet on this.

Yes! These are not protests. They are planned riots. It’s time for the cops to start shooting anyone who hurls a brick at them. Some parts of the country are becoming ungovernable.

Exactly. Don’t these idiots realize that with this guy gone, incarcerated or otherwise, that their community is better for it? It isn’t the rich white paid for protesters that suffer the consequences of a terrible person like this guy but the people in his community.
If they want to discuss the root causes of why this guy was such a bad apple, then great. But it will require some serious introspection.

Too true...
And of course there’s the obvious: “We prefer to kill ourselves in fare larger numbers than the police every have.”
Now, back to trashing the police brothas...

Yeah, yeah. This is the same as Charlotte: “Trump is evil because he doesn’t say exactly what we demand.” This doesn’t even rise to the level of Fake Journalism, it’s utterly brainless agitprop.
