    Because rabid dogs would never bite the hand that feeds them.

    I don't know why Atlanta was chosen. It certainly can't be a protest against any white run city or thing going on. Atlanta has a population of almost 60% black, has a black mayor, a black police chief, most of the police are black, the Atlanta city council is majority black, Atlanta in short is a black run city.

    so perhaps the protest in Atlanta isn't a black vs. white thing. It probably is just a protest or riot if you will against authority in general. Not black vs. white, although it could be black vs. black. The protesters, rioters just don't like authority regardless from who it comes from, not even if they elected those in charge who wield the authority.

    I don't know, I'm just glad I live in the country, city people are just plain crazy.

    Eventually the police manage to irritate just about everyone. Police serving obviously corrupt federal, state, and local governments will eventually be disrespected as the failures of law enforcement and criminal justice systems becomes more apparent.

    Were Trotsky, Zinoviev, and Bukharin "leftists"?

    The organized groups of rioters are anarchist-communists against the establishment and status quo. Democrats and Republicans are virtually the same to them. Most of the rest are just idiot thug-opportunists going along for the ride and a free TV and bottle of booze.

    I think that's because he can't string together a coherent sentence and his script writers haven't yet put up the teleprompter. These rioters are unlikely to hurt the "law abiding" Biden vote. Biden is a racist pile of mush-for-brains. To Democrats, this is a "not Trump" election. He'll still get 80%+ of the black vote because "Everything is Trump's fault," no matter what.

    Yes, he can alienate the violent looter/thug anarcho-communist base. He's attempting to run as a moderate, and law-abiding Democrats are horrified at watching their cities being burned down as much as anyone.

    Last night, the Democrat mayor of Atlanta was scolding the rioters as being counter-productive and not productive change-agents like MLK. That's the Biden base.

    thats the mayor
    show us the tweet from Biden condemning the rioting the looting and violence
    hell we just had two officers shot one died from those rioters and Oakland
    and yet we still have many democrat pandering and making excuses for those violent thugs
    Republicans can make one hell of a campaign commercial of all these democrats pandering and excusing the riots and then show news clips of the two officers gunned down

    We've been all over Minnesota as tourists, canoeing, fishing, camping, sightseeing. The ONLY place we ever saw a piece of litter was in Minneapolis, and lots of it. I'm sure there's an occasional piece of litter rarely in other places in Minnesota but we were lucky enough not to see it.

    Minnesota outside of Minneapolis is one of the cleanest, nicest, and most beautiful states you could wish to see.

    But now people will think it's a land of violence, fire, and crime, and find somewhere else to visit.

    I live around 30 miles south of Atlanta. We have a growing county, but the strange thing as it seems, is we still respect our police and view them as helpful. Not as our enemy. Cities may be different, maybe they have to be with all those people.

    Perhaps Atlanta is showing corruption is an equal opportunity employer. The whole city to include their justice system is run by blacks. Maybe it's a human symptom to be come corrupt, it is said power corrupts, whoever has it, eventually will become corrupt it seems.

    Doesn't shatter a thing. Like the" me too" movement, their strategy just came full circle. You reap what you sow.

    It shatters the myth that leftists are loyal to their own.

    It doesn't matter how woke you try to be, and how much of an "ally" you are to the lunatic-leftist cause, when the riots break out, they will smash your windows and burn your life's work down, because their only true cause is destruction.

    There is a police precinct in the building. So that could be the reason.

    When Americans forgot that "government is at best a necessary evil" the corruption that inevitable accompanies Big Government was unleashed. The checks and balances have been subverted.

    It was black cop on white victim. There were no riots-looting-burning violence and justice was done by a jury and judge with a 12.5 year sentence.

    Maybe that was short of enough, but I didn't hear all the evidence in the trial and assume that justice was done.

    The BLACK Woman Mayor of Atlanta begged for a peaceful protest. So did the Black Woman Police Chief.

    The irony is that these women have been trying very hard to actually improve the police force in Atlanta.

    If you look at the pictures outside of CNN, you will notice that very large rocks were being used to smash the windows.
    There are no very large rocks like that just lying around on the streets and sidewalks of that part of the city.
    In other words, they were carried there with the intent of being used to smash windows.

    Bottom Line: It wasn't about a protest. It was about an orchestrated riot.

    about 10 min away from where Amaud was killed in Brunswick, GA, a couple black thugs walked up to a white lady with her baby in a stroller at the local park and demanded money. When they didn't get it they shot her baby in the face and killed him. White people didn't riot and burn down the city and start killing black people. Even though that is the worst crime imaginable.

    Biden, is as expected, condemning "totally inappropriate" behavior on "Trump's irresponsibility". Biden didn't answer the question about the riots; he pivoted back to "racism" and suggested that Trump condones it. What's Biden supposed to say? Mouth full of campaign propaganda, "Bad man Trump".

    Biden has no alternative plan of his own....that doesn't matter to most mainstream Democrats. They'd just as soon go back to the way things have been for the last 40-50 years under people like Biden, Clinton, et.al. Big talk.
