To the leftist Governors and Mayors and Congress Critters, the riots and looting are a means of redistributing the wealth. The very backbone of the Democrat ruling philosophy is to redistribute the wealth.
Or in African parlance, the looting is forced repaparations. The looters are taking that which is owed them because being unequal, they were sold into slavery
If America accepts the looting, rioting, burning as an excuse for the death of an arrest resisting druged out criminal, America is over.
