Why your friends criticizing the Baltimore riots are either ignorant or racist

We should care much more about all the innocent people getting killed by police than about property damage.

If you value plate-glass windows more than you value the life of a person of color, you are being racist.

Josh Kruger, give me all of your electronics, or you're a racist and I'll smash your windows.

And what is your opinion? Do you agree with what you posted?

Welcome to FR.
Is looting a civil right?

[Secret Agent Man]

People of color don’t have freedom to riot and destroy anyone else’s property. JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE doesn’t have that right either.

They don’t have the right to attack others and they don’t have the right to terrorize others. People will rightly defend themselves and others.

You don’t get ot riot because a court ruling doesn’t go your way.

Talk about racism. Every case these people have already declared them guilty before the court case begins.

The racism is thick and heavy in the black community.

To the author of the article: The right to life of any person, "of color or not, ends when you attempt to take away the legal means used by another person to retain their own. You want to loot a store that multiple families *need* the income from to survive? Guess what - too bad, so sad, needs of the innocent outweigh the needs of the malicious and Mr. Looter can meet Mr. Bullet.

It's so easy - other "people of color" know how that works:

These 'people of color' also strongly disagree with your idea. Even indicating that the business was owned by a 'person of color' didn't work, so they switched to guns.

[Viking2002]

Yup. He's a fag. A mincing, militant rubber-wrist.

[shibumi]

That’s a nice looking rifle/shotgun combo there.

This guy thinks they do have the right....and he's been encouraging them to "Get fired up"...."Get organized"... "make your voices heard" ...I'm of the mind he was speaking to a certain 'group' of Americans Only

Do you like kitties?

[Dallas59]

The death has to be investigated....but stealing from people who have nothing to do with Greys death is wrong. Blacks kill Blacks WAY more than the police kill Blacks. The problem isn’t the police. The problem are Blacks not caring about themselves and blaming their problems on some undefined source...acting civilly towards themselves and other races, respecting the law, educating themselves on subjects other than slavery, cursing, sex, drugs and so on.
