    There's a difference between making a little mess to get people's attention and completely rioting and looting for the sake of doing so just because you can, and doing it in places that you live and get your life supplies from.

    Looting beats working for a living, plus you get on television . . . sweet! Sign me up as a nation-hating leftist today.

    What I don't understand is why it took them so long to finally loot the mall and why didn't they go after Target before the cops had a chance to react.

    The looters were poorly organized. Even the video footage at the mall showed the traffic jam they created exiting the mall with their "booty"

    I appreciate your flaccid attempt to morph this mindless animalistic idiocy into some noble cause, but if anyone equates this BS with the Boston Tea Party, they're better off posting in a psychology forum.

    As for "the powers that be", what you need to do is stop voting for Democratic/Liberal policy. You need to stop buying the notion that ever increasing taxes on the public is good idea, and somehow makes Government better at what it is supposed to do.

    It just makes Government more effective at convincing you that your faults are not your fault; that there are groups that you should resent.

    That you should get even.

    Make no mistake. The people have been increasingly drugged by the promises of this Government, which has gotten enormously powerful on the spoils of idiots buying its promises.

    Obama is simply the latest and most blatant in the efforts of Totalitarianists which have brought this about. This chaos is intended to tighten the noose of Government control of its people, further indenturing us.

    Yes, because "busting heads" always works. It is precisely the mentality which you are displaying which has led to the unrest you're now enjoying. Little wonder Texas is among the most educationally-challenged states. Of course you can argue that this unrest is either genetically predicated or occurs out of a vacuum. I would be interested to hear those.

    The police were at the mall when it first started, which is also where a major metro station is and that was shut down. So they just spilled into the surrounding neighborhoods, wrecked a CVS and 4 or 5 other shops, set cars on fire and such and THEN looted Mondawmin Mall after the police were dealing with people several blocks away.

    The typical liberal response, "well look at football game rioters". For one, the mayhem after a game is a combination of races, and most of them are (*)(*)(*)(*) faced drunk. This is pure out and out hatred, and you can know HD, it is the liberal reaction that these are just misguided kids, and you can also know, every one of these thug ass punks is a voting democrat, and not republican among them

    You are always trying to justify bad behavior with other bad behavior

    When slavery was culturally acceptable, black people were - nearly to a person - humble, God-fearing, family centric, and horribly oppressed. They experienced the worst of what society can dish out, and yet, they retained their sense of honor and civility.

    They knew right from wrong.

    When blacks were oppressed with institutional and cultural racism, they still retained their heritage, sense of family and God, and sense of right and wrong. Martin Luther King sprung - a most righteous and honorable man - sprung up from these adversities.

    They knew right from wrong.

    This changed with white liberal guilt, which didn't know how to react to the awareness of the injustices, and did what immature parents do with their kids.

    They spoiled them - and in the process, ruined them.

    Instead of simply tearing down the institutional racism, they proceeded to treat black culture as a helpless entity, awarding special privileges and allowances, and began to fill their ears with the story that whatever ills they suffered in the present weren't their fault, they were a product of past injustices.

    And - just like a child who is never grounded, they started to believe, and lose their own individualism.

    Overt racism couldn't do to the black culture what this new, far more insipid racism has done. The soft bigotry of low expectations has turned black society into a feral pet, and dehumanized it.

    The only blacks who have escaped this horrible fate are those who never lost their individualism, either through a high level of self-awareness, or simple luck, having recognized something within themselves that was special; that they could harness for their own benefit, and the benefit of their families.

    The rest were doomed by the natural consequence of Government Nannyism. Mix that with the soft bigotry of low expectations, and you see that racism can take many forms, including simple pity.

    Is being drunk supposed to make their irrational behavior justified?

    What a load of partisan BS. I don't give a damn who the guy getting shot by the badged officer votes for. It's irrelevant to me. Conservatives CREATED the police state, thanks to Reagan, that treasonous creation of Grover Norquist, a false legacy used solely to combat the democratic party and success/popularity of Clinton.

    So no, thanks. I won't vote republican/conservative anymore then I'll vote democrat/liberal. Both sides are bile, poison at best and outright suicide at worst. You can keep your arsonist, back door dealing, democidal parties to yourselves, thanks.

    And as far as your commentary about nobility - there was no nobility in the BTP, just like there isn't any here, or in any riot/revolution/unrest.

    It's not noble to fight for the rights given to you in the supreme law of the land. It's Mandatory.

    It's surprising how often busting the heads of bad people works to rearrange their public demeanor. Simple, quick, and efficient. Whap! End of attitude problem as far as the destruction of public property, looting, mugging, rapping, etcetera goes.

    Absolutely not, but those involved should pay a heavy price for that drunken behavior, and know it should apply to these rioters in Baltimore who are doing it out of pure hate for American society.

    I watched live footage for more than 3 hours last night. I found it extremely ironic that the protesters who are protesting against police, were upset that the police weren't doing anything about the rioters tearing everything up. Some clueless woman said that's how it always be. They never do nothing in situations like this.

    I've never seen so many hoodies in one area.

    Rodney King was a crack addict that led cops on a high speed car chase, then got out and tried to attack them.

    Then, and still today, people are too stupid to realize that when you break the law, you risk unhealthy consequences.

    The main point here:

    DON'T.
    BREAK.
    THE.
    LAW.

    As they should. But I think I said it earlier, a lot of those rioters won't get caught and will just lay low. Luckily there's plenty of folks including youth doing clean-up in the damaged parts of the city right now.

    It's the difference between classroom theory and field execution. These were probably trained by professional radical activist types who infiltrated those neighborhoods at the start of the peaceful protests. But it takes time to train non-academic, chronic low-achiever types to learn how to riot, loot, mug (well most of them are already skilled at doing that) and burn without actually getting taken down by the police or getting rounded up a few days or a few weeks after the fact and getting put behind bars. But of necessity all of that stuff had to be taught to them as theories.

    It wasn't until the thug graduates of the radical course work actually tried putting their theories into actual practice that they discovered that, "Hey this shlt ain't as easy as it looked on TV when other rioters did it. Shlt! I just burned myself with this damn flaming Molotov cocktail. Snap! That's what the instructor meant by light and throw not light and admire the way the thing flames above the lip of the bottle! Damn! I hurt my back flinging that trash can through that store's plate glass window. Snap! That's what the instructor meant by toss with the strength of your shoulders not by snapping your waist!" So forth and so on.

    It takes time to really learn how to be good at this stuff no matter how many George Soros funded radical groups sends professional trainers to a targeted place. How's that?

    "it's how it always be" they don't stop us from destroying our and others stuff, but when they do it's racism. "it's how it always be."

    Look how dumb their logic is.

    They want police to protect them, but when they do it's racist that they get involved.

    If I was a cop I would refuse to get involved in that madness, not only that but I would quit.

    They deserve EVERYTHING they get. If their homes burn to the ground they deserve it - not only that but they don't deserve a new one either - no they can be homeless for all I care.

    You see - those who build nothing and live off the taxpayers respect nothing because they didn't earn it or build it. For all intents and purposes money DOES grow on trees for these retards.

    Go educate yourself if you are clueless as to what happened and you could start by watching the ENTIRE video not one that starts in the middle AFTER he has attacked the officers and thrown one off his back and after being TASED twice to no effect. Then tell us why the other two men with him did not receive a single blow.

    That's my most favorite cop-out excuse by you people...

    Why don't you try taking the blame for something instead of going the lazy way and saying "Ain't my fault."

    The stereotype that communities like that receive is due to their own laziness and they can blame themselves. The cops are a majority black, as are the officials and residents. Sorry bub, but saying it goes back to slave days is a straight up cop-out.

    641,000 residents.

    63.3% black

    I don't think it was that elaborate. Honestly its just a bunch of blacks with an opportunity to steal and destroy for the fun of it without any regard for anyone but themselves. Of course progressives will without question defend them and their actions.

    One doesn't need to teach what is natural so bringing in radical organizers would be redundant.
