I live in a city that is so dangerous the police have to use pepper balls on protesters so that the president can have a chance to pose with a Bible in front of the church of his choice.
But guess what? The prosperous areas are quiet as they were before this. Yes, there were burglars who took advantage of police distraction on the night when protesting turned into rioting, not just downtown but uptown. That's over. The murders remain where the murders have been, i.e. in the poorer ends of town.
- joshstrange 6y agoI want to be clear, I draw a clear line between protestors, rioters, looters. They are not all the same and even then I can sympathize with some of the property damage (from the perspective of the people doing it). I’m far less concerned about rioters or protests getting out of hand than I am the police/government or some crazed person who read something or FB or Twitter deciding to take matters in their own hands.
