help these areas

they don't need help, they need equal opportunity, & the state to quit throwing every male in prison on petty drug offenses from over-policing.

Both things of which I'm a big advocate.

Stop fighting me on things we agree about with semantics!

I don't understand* those who take that willingness to fight and manipulate it into situations that help literally no one and only hurt others.

that's when everyone's willingness to fight turns into a HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE mob with no plan or foresight. groups of people can be swayed pretty easily, even more-so if there's a legitimate reason to be moved to action. then it's just lemmings diving off the cliff.

They're already in a welfare-heavy city in a welfare-heavy state, so clearly that's not solving anything. The over-policing of petty drug offenses might be worth looking into, though.

Mosin really thinks that because of something that happened 200 years ago, it justifies violence today in an unrelated issue.

He already provided it to us before anyone really asked.

Not a conspiracy when it's a fact. Your saying that homeless man did not die saying it's a Conspiracy and that infowars.com does not indeed post facts mainstream does not hardly ever give anytime. It's ok I know your a trendy and I am fine if you think everything is ok. I'm just giving you fair warning.

- Started 200+ years ago.

- It's not necessarily an unrelated issue.

You have to allow for the possibility that the reasons for the rioting are valid, even if the action of rioting itself is wrong.

If I were to say "no fast enough", would you hate me/would I get in trouble?

I'm not saying that, I'm just asking.

I mean, the English are one of our biggest allies and there are still Americans that hate the English over things that happened 200+ years ago...

who the hell is Bernie Sanders
A Vermont independent. If memory serves me correctly, he was the only independent in the Senate. Well, democrat in independent's clothing.
No King he is a socialist. Open, avowed, declared.

But he will run as a Democrat.

Wait, are we seriously using the "my people were once oppressed!" schtick as a means of debasing the reality that blacks are oppressed/discriminated upon?

Ah yes, the 'my Irish ancestors were treated WORSE than blacks' card. How long ago was that sir? Oh, 150 years ago. BUT IT FEELS LIKE YESTERDAY.

The reality is today if you're Irish you're safely under the amorphous 'white' umbrella.

As much as there are things I would like to stand up against, I can't seem to find the motivation to rob, loot, steal, plunder, pillage, or otherwise destroy innocent peoples lives and livelihood to "protest" against an act of violence.

No one does this kind of ***when kids are raped, beaten, starved to death or commit suicide. So why do people argue that this is some kind of valid response, just because of race?

No, the whole "my people were once oppressed" excuse is just a cop-out.

Everyone's ancestors were oppressed one way or another. Saying that your's were as a reason to cause/drive hatred in a community is a very poor excuse, because, guess what, so was everyone else's, including those who you are fighting against.

The plight of black people today has virtually nothing to do with the notion that 200+ years ago blacks were slaves.
