Gosh you kill one innocent black person and they all lose their minds, sheesh! Link to comment

carlfense Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 So you think they are justified targeting innocent business owners? (FWIW, I don't think that it's justified. That said, it may well be understandable. It is certainly drawing more attention than a strongly worded letter.) Link to comment

I imagine when the system itself fails and you feel like this crap happens all the time, you start to want to do things that aren't legal because the legal stuff did nothing for you. Link to comment

LukeinNE Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Gosh you kill one innocent black person and they all lose their minds, sheesh! Or we could....you know, let the justice system do its thing without declaring guilt and innocence based on nothing but our own biases... 1 Link to comment

HuskerShark Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 It definitely has to do with both, but why do we have to categorize the people polled based upon political belief?... Link to comment

Right. If you feel like the system is rigged against you (and there is evidence on your side) then your response is probably not going to be to work through the system. Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted August 12, 2014 Author Share Posted August 12, 2014 So, anyone who has a system stacked against them is justified in rebelling by looting, and vandalizing everything in their sight. Link to comment

Not only that but they are looting and vandalizing property that has nothing to do with "the system". Link to comment

I'm currently fighting a speed camera ticket from Sioux City. That's a system transparently designed to screw people without due process. Does this mean I get to grab a brick and upgrade my entertainment center with 60 sleek inches of Council Bluffs plasma? Link to comment
