Charlotte Protests And Riots Thread

[Kollin]

I appreciate the insight, but I was inquiring more into why Vassenor seems to be fine with trying to brand all white people with the same stick. Especially considering he'd probably be offended if the same was done with people of a darker complexion.

Pretty sure she's white.

Consider it a reversal of how blacks are being treated. Doesn't sound so fun now that it's whitey taking the stick, does it?

How about, and this is a radical idea i'm sure, we give NO ONE the stick?
Yanno, instead of this absolutely cancerous and retarded idea that the way to correct this is to switch who it's happening to, let's instead shred this stick to pieces, and move on.

Or, or, we can do THIS plan, where we basically reverse the racism. I'm just saying though, i think idea is better for the whole 'egalitarian' thing.

Must be radical, because no-one seems willing to let it happen.

The tone of your original post didn't exactly suggest you were in favor of it either.
It may very well be comments like those, meant or otherwise that help fuel the circle it's going 'round in.

Again, why i'd say to not make them at all. They help nothing.

[Avistria]

It's always "fun" to see my home town in flames!

[Crockerland]

Not surprised at all. Especially considering how BLM supporters riot immediately when someone is shot and just happens to be African American. Of course, you can tell they'd act like uncivilised rabble knowing how wilfully ignorant they are towards the actions of the individual shot, just focusing on the fact that: One, the individual shot was African American. Two, that a cop was the one who shot them. This is appalling. And then, we get to the point where some of these supporters begin to act like barbarians towards anyone or anything just for the fun of it.

I know, right. They should be more like white people and find legitimate things to riot about.

Like pumpkins.

2 wrongs = 1 right?

People would probably be more open to the notion once they see things from the other side.

Charlotte, thankfully, isn't actually going up in flames. I mean, even after Wednesday's terrible violence, the protests have managed to stay peaceful since Thursday, despite our current state of emergency and curfew...

Or they might just turn on you, and flip the problem around. It's really not a great solution like you think it is. Unless you want an extremely high risk of just that, the situation being flipped, and the problem still existing.

When white people riot we don't pull 9mms on each other and loot sneakers.

[Galloism]

TIL douchefucks take advantage of unrest to try and burn someone, so blacks need to STFU about police violence.

TIL some people still can't realize that BLM are an anti-white hate group funded by George Soros as an attempt to start a race war in America.

I actually laughed out loud at this.

People shouldn't be rioting pretty much ever.
Should be dispersed. Riots are not peaceful and they are not justified - they are only serving to cause even more damage.

How exactly is that trolling?

I don't recall once suggesting it was a solution.

How is it not?

Firstly the racial (and really old, really boring) "dindu nuffin" meme, second, "let's shoot the uppity blacks".

Yes, but they're rather separate and distinct from the army, and the posse comitatus act only carves out an exception for them if under command of the governor, not the president. Also, incidentally, only in their state or a directly adjacent state.

Good thing I obviously wasn't discussing the moderator decision, I guess.

[Imperial Union of America]

I don't agree with that whole 'dindu nuffin' thing, but we should definitely deploy the army to deal with thugs who engage in looting, burning and other criminal activities.
