we have our political class to blame
Of course we do. These savages have not been properly trained to respect life or property. They are simply doing what savages do. To your point: race-hustling politicians are encouraging this chaos by the "reparations" idiocy and lack of punishment. Large concentrations of these savages will make civil life in the cities impossible.
In a sense you're right. Our govt had supported the destruction of the nuclear family and Judeao-Christian morality. The fabric which once promoted civility had been shredded or allowed to be shredded by our govt.
