NBC is prohibiting reporters from using the word riot in its coverage of violent outbursts in Minnesota that have occurred in response to the killing of George Floyd.
While the situation on the ground in Minneapolis is fluid, and there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as protestsnot riots, NBC host Craig Melvin wrote on Twitter Thursday.

Actually, the ‘92 LA riots were the biggest, most damaging, deadliest riots in modern U.S. history. Hopefully, nothing ever comes close.

So, this is not a “riot”. This is “an artistic expression”.

You might be interested to know, that in 1975, the Negroid military members, stationed at Dover AFB, of ranks E-5 and below, went ON STRIKE, occupying the base mess hall for 2 days.At the end of it, there were no apprehensions, no disciplanary actions. The rest of the base, during this, was ordered ‘on alert’, and the gates were locked down.

I suggest calling them “Reparations and Barbecue Parties”.

I think they let them steal and burn so that they don’t kill anyone. “Steam control”...Bonfire of the Vanities.

They’s all just stopped what they’s been doin’, went into the mess hall and sat down! Every single one, aircraft mech to skycop, to warehouseman. Even the ones IN the mess hall.
This was 1975, the beginning of all that “human relations” stuff..
This is 1 year after bringing troops home, from “fighting the white man’s war”, remember?
These are those that joined the USAF to NOT be drafted and sent to Vietnam. These are those who had close contacts with the rioters in the 1960’s. These are the ‘new’ blacks, not the long-time old ways, ‘good’ black more senior sergeants that came out from the post-WW2 mindset.
I was mentored by one of the old sergeants, who told me to pay no mind to the others, ‘cause they don’t know themselves.

I don’t remember because I’m 34.

You, 34, lets see ...2020 to 00 is 20, 00 to 94 is 6, so do you remember the post-rodney-cant-we-all-get-along-king riots??
That’ the one with the Korean store owners shooting the thieves, er, demonstrators.
