Quite an important word in the context of the post I’m sure you’d agree
Yes, but you were still wrong to say I was condoning it.
Just curious as to why you're trying to pick holes in nonsense like this while you have completely missed the bigger picture? Had a nice evening by any chance?
I haven’t missed anything. I understand why they are upset, what happened was abhorrent, but what does looting shops and setting cars on fire achieve exactly? Why is that acceptable?
As for picking holes, I can’t believe you of all people would grumble about that. It’s your forte.
Deep state false flag to start a race war and the usual fools on here fall for it, they want you divided.
The Deep State you say?

It’s kicking right off across the pond
What's the problem? The police are just following their presidents orders. He told them to rough it up a bit.
I mean. They couldn’t stop themselves from blatantly escalating things. Even for a few days, even cynically, even for the optics. pic.twitter.com/YVDjnvVGnY

Trump has got nothing to do with the local state police, you need to blame the individual governors for their lack of direction.
morons protesting in London this afternoon. Chanting 'I can't breathe' is appropriate given some of them will likely have the same issue in 3 weeks time. Sick of people in this country trying to import US politics and race relations into the UK
protests outside the castle in cardiff and manchester this afternoon too . will only escalate to all major cities in this country this week
What America desperately needs is calm, dignified and measured leadership. Sadly they have Trump instead.
He spoke yesterday but the media forgot to report it. Regarding the riots, the governors of each state are responsible for deciding what type of response takes place, and many particularly in the Democratic controlled states have decided to do nothing, and let them continue with their rioting, looting, maiming and killing.
Good job too, all the world should be solidarity with this protest against evil
Reports of a Dallas store owner murdered in cold blood by the mob whilst trying to protect his store.
It is what it is.
[QUOTE=J R Hartley;5082232]Reports of a Dallas store owner murdered in cold blood by the mob whilst trying to protect his store.
saw this footage on twitter earlier
gruesome viewing . no problems with protests but what we are seeing now is carnage and anarchy
It is what it is.
It is what it is by all accounts Moz
How brutally kicking someone to death like that is honouring the death of George Floyd I do not know.
It’s just an excuse for anarchy of the worst kind.
it just wasnt kicking the poor chap had a number of bricks thrown at his face when he was half dead on the floor at full force by the baying mob
just for defending his shop for gods sake
I couldn’t watch it all.
Feral behaviour.
Animals.
Attorney General William P. Barr's Statement on Riots and Domestic Terrorism
Attorney General William P. Barr has issued the following statement:
“With the rioting that is occurring in many of our cities around the country, the voices of peaceful and legitimate protests have been hijacked by violent radical elements. Groups of outside radicals and agitators are exploiting the situation to pursue their own separate, violent, and extremist agenda.
It is time to stop watching the violence and to confront and stop it. The continued violence and destruction of property endangers the lives and livelihoods of others, and interferes with the rights of peaceful protestors, as well as all other citizens.
It also undercuts the urgent work that needs to be done – through constructive engagement between affected communities and law enforcement leaders – to address legitimate grievances. Preventing reconciliation and driving us apart is the goal of these radical groups, and we cannot let them succeed.
It is the responsibility of state and local leaders to ensure that adequate law enforcement resources, including the National Guard where necessary, are deployed on the streets to reestablish law and order. We saw this finally happen in Minneapolis last night, and it worked.
Federal law enforcement actions will be directed at apprehending and charging the violent radical agitators who have hijacked peaceful protest and are engaged in violations of federal law.
To identify criminal organizers and instigators, and to coordinate federal resources with our state and local partners, federal law enforcement is using our existing network of 56 regional FBI Joint Terrorism Task Forces (JTTF).
The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly.”
Here is the charge sheet.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner (ME) conducted Mr. Floyd’s autopsy on May 26, 2020. The full report of the ME is pending but the ME has made the following preliminary findings. The autopsy revealed no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation. Mr. Floyd had underlying health conditions including coronary artery disease and hypertensive heart disease. The combined effects of Mr. Floyd being restrained by the police, his underlying health conditions and any potential intoxicants in his system likely contributed to his death.
I don’t think the behaviour of a load of idiots should detract from the fact that the human rights of black people in America are substandard. The behaviour of these arse holes shouldn’t detract from the bigger picture.
The people looting etc should be ashamed of themselves for undermining what is a great cause.
What happened to that chap in Dallas went far beyond the “behaviour of an idiot”.
It was stone cold murder every bit as disgusting as the killing of George Floyd.
I’m hoping the poor fella hasn’t been killed and it’s social media getting ahead of itself, but it didn’t look good.
But, hey, either way, whatever the outcome, it is what it is.
It didn’t see that someone was killed,whoever did it deserves to be punished to the full extent of the law.
It doesn’t change the overall point of my post though does it?
Everyone in a country deserves equal rights, there is no arguing that black people get equal rights in the US currently.
