What was throwing the tea in the harbor? I say it was a little bit of rioting.
A direct protest of the tea tax. How does this compare to ransacking a McDonalds, and what did this activity have to do with a BART cop negligently killing a punk?
This isn’t apples and oranges, this is apples and manhole covers.
No comparison. None.
You are comparing an individual (cop) commiting a crime (homicide) that was not sanctioned by any group or entity of the government or department to citizens protesting unfair and outrageous taxation without representation. If you are saying a group that wants to destroy other individuals private property to make a point to people that agree with them is an appropriate way to protest you need to be hospitalized to have a cranial analectomy or a sterilization procedure done so that no like minded progeny is created.
