Math is hard! Those statistics mean that there is no discrimination whatsoever. Yeesh!
For a town that is 70% black, I bet that more than half of the stores being looted are black-owned, too.
And I'd not be surprised if the town has a large % of minorities in the police department.

I guess it would be useless to try to explain math to them, right? Whitey hides the secret information like that in books.

Rush was talking about this today. Said you can take any soundbite from here and insert it into the Watts Riots of 1965 (He said 1967 but that's incorrect) or the aftermath of the Rodney King verdict.
Nothing has changed.

Pretty much useless.
Interestingly, if Blacks get stopped twice as frequently as whites, but Blacks make up 70% of the population, they are actually under represented in traffic stops and whites are disproportionally pulled over in greater numbers than their percentage share of the population.
Based on that line of reasoning, Whites are being discriminated against

Why do they riot?
Why do they loot?
Why do dogs lick themselves in front of company?
Because they can.

Because it is fun, exactly. And because they want STUFF - other people’s stuff. They do not do it because there are not enough black policemen. They do not do it because of poverty. They do it to cause chaos and mayhem, to intimidate law-abiding citizens, to steal stuff, because they like chaos.

It does not take much of a reason for looters to come out.

They are not interested in math. Just a big new HD color widescreen.
The only math they do is trying to figure out how to get it home
after they steal it.

Those that remember Kent State also remember that there were demonstrations and takeovers on campuses across the land, with little or no action taken against the rioters.
Things kind of stopped AFTER Kent State.
This has been going on nigh on 50 years and for the most part the ONLY time the police really reacted was against the Korean Merchants in LA who were protecting their business establishments.
Opening fire on them - the looters and rioters - may be the ONLY way to stop it but it really isn’t all that practical.
Maybe a page from Bull Connors book - Firehoses and dogs They both ‘worked’ to keep things under control.
