Savagery is spreading with lightning speed across the United States, with murderous assaults on police officers and civilians and the ecstatic annihilation of businesses and symbols of the state. Welcome to a real civilization-destroying pandemic, one that makes the recent saccharine exhortations to “stay safe” and the deployment of police officers to enforce outdoor mask-wearing seem like decadent bagatelles.
This particular form of viral chaos was inevitable, given the failure of Minneapolis’s leaders to quell the city’s growing mayhem. The violence began on Tuesday, May 26, the day after the horrifying arrest and subsequent death of George Floyd. On the night of Thursday, May 28, Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey ordered the city’s Third Police Precinct evacuated as the forces of hatred, distinct from legitimate forms of protest, descended upon it for a third day in a row. The building was promptly torched, sending a powerful sign that society would not defend its most fundamental institutions of law and order.
On Friday, May 29, Minnesota governor Tim Walz explained his reluctance to mobilize the National Guard as an unwillingness to seem “oppressive.” Naturally, he apologized for his white privilege—“I will not patronize you as a white man without living [your] lived experiences”—and explained the feral violence as an understandable response to racial injustice: “The ashes are symbolic of decades and generations of pain, of anguish, unheard.” Few arrests were made after five days of rampant crime.
The media, visibly exhilarated by this latest explosion of black rage, had its own explanation for the chaos: people were outraged that the officer who had kept his knee on Floyd’s neck for a sickening eight-plus minutes had not yet been arrested and charged.

I’d just like to put in a good word for right wing radicals, too.
Go away troll
Aunt Teefuh? Surely the author means Oath Keepers, proud boys, kkk, white Naught-Zee supremacists, evangelical bible thumpers etc., etc. Or russians as suzee rice thinks.
What is far more disturbing is the traitorous betrayal by Demonicrat and RINOcrat governors and mayors who are willingly giving aid and comfort to the insurrectionist enemies of the United States by allowing them to pillage, burn, riot, rob, beat, murder, and attack the lives and property of U.S. citizens.
Such governors and mayors belong in jails awaiting capital charges for their crimes.

I haven’t seen any. Who do you think they are?
Good time to mention again that “antifa” is just a re-branding of the same violent anarchists who have been fomenting public disorder since the 1990s
They should also make good business losses (except for companies like Target, who are encouraging the insurrection).
Vote Democrat!
Direct result of ignoring that the Kenyan from Indonesia is not a natural born citizen.
Words have meaning or the Constitution is an illusion.
More incentive for law-abiding citizens to move away from large urban areas, to rural ones.
Unfortunately, this rent-a-riot phenomenon is only going to get progressively worse.
It almost seems as though Democrat governors and mayors are using these riots to punish the citizenry for not embracing leftism.
Numbers 32:20 So Moses said to them, "If you will do this, if you will arm yourselves before the Lord for the war,
Numbers 32:21 and all of you armed men cross over the Jordan before the Lord until He has driven His enemies out from before Him,
Numbers 32:22 and the land is subdued before the Lord, then afterward you shall return and be free of obligation toward the Lord and toward Israel, and this land shall be yours for a possession before the Lord. Numbers 32:23 "But if you will not do so, behold, you have sinned against the Lord, and be sure your sin will find you out.
We must turn back to God, pray that He save us, go out and crush this rebellion, or we will lose the country.
how did he mean that?
Their roots go back way before the 1990s or even the 1960s. The destructive power of American Progressivism goes back to the early days of the communists.
You must be young. Try the 1960s.
Led by the likes of race agitator Gayle King.
There is only one way to stop this. Use the force necessary to arrest the instigators and the rest will fade away.
Instead we have leaders telling police not to intervene, threatening to investigate the police’s behavior while they are getting pelted with rocks, urine, bottles, spit, and even Molotov cocktails, and for those arrested for rioting they are slapped on the wrist and released immediately from jail.
The riots will continue under these circumstances.
