The Ferguson Riot only lasted one?
What were the L.A. Riots like?
(I was only four years old :P)
CBS Baltimore is saying 2 days plus time to clean it up. They make it sound like moving around the city is difficult due the debris.
There is no Gates to stop it hardcore.
“What were the L.A. Riots like?”
L.A. riots went on for days, and caused billions in damage.
Ferguson was more than one day
They played politics; the NG was called out, but without ammo. 3/1 out of Pendleton was deployed to get busy in the bad areas. They cleaned it up real good. India Company reportedly took a few shots from a crack house and lit it up. But yeah, Marines were deployed back then.
Watts riots were about a week and the South Central riot was a little less in length. There was a lot more property damage than Baltimore but there is still time. The police here has apparently been told “hands off”. Their presence isn’t effective.
