many of today’s young people neither understand nor respect the importance of property rights in a free society..

Philadelphia .. at least 30 police officers have been injured in the violent unrest, while dozens of people have been arrested for rioting or vandalism. Mobs have descended on Walmart and rushed out carrying TVs, while other agitators ransacked Footlocker for new sneakers. The full number of businesses ravaged by the destruction is increasing and still being tallied.
...
This latest outbreak simply adds to the thousands of businesses, from Chicago to Minneapolis and beyond, that have been rioted, ransacked, burned down, or looted in the ongoing period of political unrest over police brutality, both real and imagined. All told, the damage from rioting in recent months will exceed any past period of civil unrest in American history, with even modest under-estimates putting the total cost at up to $2 billion.
The outbreak of mass rioting and looting across America is alarming in its own right, but equally chilling is the public’s support for the violence. .. college students in particular overwhelmingly believe that rioting and looting is justified.
...
One key finding from the poll was that 64 percent of college students agreed that “the recent rioting and looting is justified to some degree.” Only 28 percent disagreed with this assessment.
...
Property rights are human rights.
...
If business owners and investors can’t feel secure in their property in an area, they take their investment elsewhere. This means that in areas that are looted, there are fewer jobs and fewer opportunities over time.

Good, lets riot at their houses then.
Always the first thing to go in a socialist/communist government.
UN Agenda 21 ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
The good news... This same 65% of college student didn’t vote yet and they won’t bother voting on Tuesday.
Shooting of rioters to protect property should be justified.
We need to turn off the electricity at all colleges—it is racism for them to benefit from the inventions of white men.
Start taking those losses out of the CEOs salaries.
Things will quickly change.
DEFUND colleges.
Not that the result would be much less but the way that question was phrased is a great example of piss poor push polling with questions that likely lead to a certain result.
The thief only comes to steal, kill and destroy.

“...many of today’s young people neither understand nor respect the importance of property rights in a free society..”
They live on credit and their parents. Unless you work and scrape for what you have you don’t respect it.
100% of home and business owners say shooting looters is justified.
so glad i was in my 20’s during the 1980’s....this bunch...never seen such an ugly, homely, unattractive, miserable, unhappy group...especially the women...
“Good, lets riot at their houses then.”
That what these young people have been doing while living in the parents basements/houses.. looting. Stealing from daddy/mamma’s boyfriend billfold and/or mamma’s purse money or cards and of course stealing their stuff and selling or hocking it. They have just stepped their looting up from mamma’s living area to shops on the street. AND THE LAW ALLOWS IT.
Unless it effects them personally. Then it magically ceases to be justified.
