Americans are finally waking up. yay

I don’t condone violence but I’m glad the American people are finally standing up against the corrupted broken system. Revolution is long overdue. The looting of high end stores such as Chanel is also not so bad in my view. Chanel and other high end brands are like symbols of out of control consumerism and greed. Burn them all down. People who can’t even afford healthcare and food for their families do not need streets lined with shops taunting them with $50,000 blingy handbags. Trump is such a sad pathetic little character in all this. A tragic keyboard warrior sitting in the bunker tweeting. I’d love to see him dragged out and ripped apart by the crowd.
I sincerely hope for the American people that some positive change occurs after this and things don’t just go back to business as usual. I don’t feel positive that it will though. I think there is a long dark battle ahead. The true colours of your leaders and authorities is now completely exposed. They are violent thugs who will stop at nothing to preserve power including killing their own people.

  • "I don't condone violence" - Lie.

    "The looting of high end stores" - Don't complain about forgotten communities that breeds crime when businesses leave the community. Also nice attempt to not include the fact that small businessmen are also being targeted.

    "I'd love to see him ripped apart by the crowd" - See condoning violence point.

    "I hope positive change comes after this" - There won't be.

    "They are violent thugs who will stop at nothing to preserve power including killing their own people." - You say unironically in defense of rioters destroying the lives of the people they claim to be fighting for.

    American's aren't "finally waking up", these rioters are people that had the moral, or lack there of, capacity to destroy, steal, and harm others, they're simply using Floyd's death as a catalyst to engage in acts they would of committed if there was chance of no resistance and then you get ideologues exploiting those people to make it about "anti-capitalism". I hope every business owner leaves and sets up shop elsewhere leaving all of these assholes to the ashes they caused, and then watch them beg and blame people for their community being a wasteland they created.

        This guy is a top teir bootlicker. Cops could come beat his elderly neighbor to death on his porch and he'd make an excuse for it. These are the people who defend cops shooting a schizophrenic person for acting erratic because the poor little piggies were scared of him.

        Get ready for a circular logic argument where he can't see the difference between destroying a police car and destroying somebody's personal vehicle. Or that comparing the cops to any other criminal gang of violent thugs means you endorse destroying people's corner grocery store.

        • It's real nice you have to lie to represent me.

          You base me being a "Bootlicker" on the fact I want cops to stop the riots. You call me a bootlicker because I want the cops to stop people like you from being the types that would run in and beat the elderly neighbour while claiming it's "just a protest, bro!"

          I can't see the difference between destroying a police car and destroying somebody's personal vehicle? You mean like how the "protesters" can't tell the difference between the institutions they claim to be rioting against and innocent people's businesses, property, or safety? Kinda like that?

          Oh, piss off, inbred. You mean to tell me you're not in support of these riots but the second someone openly opposes them and wants them to be stopped you openly claim they're a bootlicker? "Wow, I don't condone the riots, I just condemn those that oppose the riots". You're transparent as fuck, my dude.

            Beating up old people isn't good. Neither are cops. I'm not supporting riots, I just will not support the current predatory system of criminal gangs legally running the streets with impunity as an acceptable solution.

            You must watch a lot of news. Because you seem to think the only possible situations are riots or tolerance of criminal cops.

            • "I'm not supporting the riots, I just don't want the cops I don't support to stop the rioters I don't support so that the rioters I don't support don't have any resistance to the rioting I don't support."

              So basically you want the cops gone so that the rioters you don't support can continue. Gotcha.

          • Firstly the cops aren’t just “stopping the riots” at all. They have repeatedly been exposed by video using unnecessary brutality against innocent peaceful protestors. The most recent two videos I’ve seen they have knocked old men in the 70s to the ground, one cracked his head and blood poured from his ear and then they just carried on and left him. The second one was walking with a cane away from them. They behave like psychopathic thugs. No matter how you try to paint this there is absolutely no doubt that this is not about “stopping riots” at all. It’s about unnecessary police brutality and you don’t respond to the issue by brutalising even more people. Trump has done nothing but stoke the racial tensions even more and incite more violence as usual. Instead of standing up and addressing the nation he just fucking tear gassed and shot at people so he could get a photo op with a bible to appeal to his evangelical supporters. It’s not only disgraceful but also really weird that some people think this is ok.
            You may think your comments are well thought out but they are completely biased and as such I agree with SmokeEverything, you are a top tier bootlicker and you are a part of the problem.

            • Yes, the cops by and large are working on stopping the riots. This is why there is a curfew to limit police and rioters from engaging with eachother. If you think you can take a small percentage of officers and represent them as the majority in this situation then you're a fool.

              70 year-old man:
              - Man did not obey police securing an area.
              - Cop pushed the old man with minimum force, the old man stumbled which led to the injury. The outcome was unintentional but the cop shouldn't of done it and should be punished, which he was.
              - Multiple officers stopped, one immediately uses his radio to call it in, and one officer leans down to see to the man. So you are wrong on a factual basis.
              (I haven't seen the second situation you speak of. Link it)

              Trump has done nothing:
              - Trump has made numerous statements about the subject.
              - Trump just recently released a video where he sympathises with the peaceful protesters, vilifies the rioters, and sympathises with cops while saying what was done to Floyd was wrong. The video was removed due to copyright. So once again you are wrong on a factual basis. Research better next time.

              My comments are fine. For example, my response to you includes disproving your points with stone cold facts. You cannot call my capability to represent a subject into question when you can't even get the facts correct.

              Bootlicker. I can live with that. It beats being a pussy that doesn't like that there's a force out there that will punish you for hurting innocent people. Doesn't it just suck that you can't get away with ruining someone's livelihood? :'(

    Dude, this happened back in the early 90s with Rodney King. And he wasn't even murdered. They activated the EBS during those riots. That was almost 30 years ago. Seems Americans are always "waking up" by your logic, eh?

    There's a video on CNN about an 81 year old man who just lost his business to looters. They bashed in the windows, stole all his shit, and burned the place down. You think that's acceptable? Hey, it seems racist white cops killing black people is a thing, I agree. But the protests that descend into pure anarchy are achieving...what?

    Here's America waking up in 1992:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yz0AtEx9CIA

    And here's America waking up, also in 1992. Against KOREANS.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Dvwn4aXE8s

    It's happened so often over the years. How many times does America wake up, fall back asleep, and wake up again?

    See corporations aren't being looted. People are being looted out of jobs. Those companies have insurance for just this reason. Its but a minor inconvenience. But staff is out of work now. So congrats this looting you support is fuvking over small businesses and the working man. Nobody else.

    • What do you expect when you live in a culture that worships money and consumerism and you have an underclass of disadvantaged people who can barely even survive day to day let alone ever have any of the luxuries held up and flaunted before them daily. You have a massive ever expanding gap between rich and poor. The only people enjoying the luxuries are the wealthy. The rich just getting richer and the poor are left to rot. Of course when you have such a divide between the haves and the have nots you’re going to get angry people who will just take what they are told they cannot have. Not saying it’s right but just that it’s inevitable. Society created the problem and then pretends to be shocked and disgusted when people behave poorly. The rich and powerful are worse IMO. Nobody gives the
      poor a hand up. They just get a proverbial boot in the head to kick them down further. Once upon a time if you worked hard enough you could make a good life. It’s no longer so.

      Oh the news still tries to sneak in things about the so-called "pandemic".
      Like mentioning how social distance guidelines were not followed during a riot. It is like, "Well no shit, they aren't there to play the CDC's games."

    In socialist countries everyone is equal. Equally poor. Atleast in America you can easily become wealthy. If you cant your the problem not the system. Get a job at cocacola or the post office or something. Easy to make 30 an hour.

            you get overtime which is 45 an hour. You can have nice house, cars, boats, invest in stocks, invest in realistate.
            Its so easy bro . did you know minimum wage in USA puts you in the top 1% of highest earners in the world? You socialists have no idea how good you have it. Its not perfect. Lots of things are wrong with America. And really capitalism is the worst system, aside from all the others.

            • I’m not affiliated with any particular political side or system so your attempt at trying to draw me in to the division and to box me is an epic fail. I I just believe that people come before money. Many Americans would just step over a dying man like a piece of trash. It’s a very toxic culture you live in.

    People have the right to burn down government buildings. But you really can't call this a revolution. For there to be a revolution you need an organized group with a plan for how things could be different, and the media propaganda machine is preventing that.

    As for me I think we need to severely defund police and remove all the protections that let them get away with crime on a daily basis. They're a bunch of drunk driving wifebeaters, if you join that gang I dont consider you a human anymore.
