A whopping 96 percent of Americans say that they expect more racially-charged unrest around the country this summer, similar to the past week's violence in Baltimore. And more than half — 54 percent — believe a similar disturbance is likely in the metropolitan area closest to where they live.

In a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, 68 percent of adults said they believe it is "very likely" that there will be more protests and clashes around the country like those after the death of Freddie Gray, a black man who suffered a fatal spinal injury while in police custody. Another 28 percent said that they believe such unrest is "somewhat likely."

This is what we got for proving we’re not racists.

Why would anyone expect anything different? Blacks refuse to have an honest conversation about race.

Well, of course everyone believes more riots will occur. The DemoKommies who rule the big inner cities have already proved to the country that there will be no retribution for wanton destruction, and in fact actually publicly ANNOUNCE the provision of police-free zones that are officially OK to destroy.

The people I really feel sorry for are the folks with small, independent businesses in the neighborhoods that will be slated for destruction by the criminal thugs and dupes induced to riot by Demokommie agitators. These business people are almost all people of color and are working their tuccuses off trying to achieve the American dream. Too bad their political masters will be putting them at the epicenters of the spaces to be destroyed.

It is the bigotry of low expectations that behavior we would not accept in ASIANS or whites, is being expected and tolerated in blacks. Shhhhh, be careful, don’t make people with really dark skin angry... They have no self control; they are children / animals.

NO. MAKE IT STOP and the media shouldn’t be hand wringing. The media should be as disgusted by bad behavior EVEN BY BLACKS as Diane Sawyer was disgusted by Bruce Jenner being a Republican.

Lisa (Fithian) is going to have a very busy tour schedule/ what is she going to do with her franchise income?

What is she going to do once the cash flow dries up? Doesn’t she know there is a problem with being a president of a south american country?

The media is promoting this because they want it to happen.

Yup, "If it bleeds, it leads".

But much more sinister this time.

Actually 1964 was the first year..the NYC riots. But you’re close, and I’m being petty. Your point is well made.

Around 1962 Soviet Union Premier Nikita Kruchev said to America, we will destroy you from within, when a communist tells the truth you better be listening.

“A whopping 96 percent of Americans say that they expect more racially-charged unrest around the country this summer...”

A whopping 75% don’t care as long as the thugs only burn down their own neighborhoods.
