Just aswell the reporters were there, absolute utter confusion, although looks like they got there in the end.

I have a friend who works in the Atalanta police department he said the majority he arrested are Antifia.

There's a surprise..

So all on the right are racist are they and all on the left are not?

OK.

I think it's safe to say you can encounter racism if you're white.

Been to the US a few times and was always astonished at the reverential deference shown towards their Law Enforcement Officers. By all means respect your local Police but bear in mind that every Police force in the world has it's fair share of bad bastards.

Bingo

 

[stonerblue]

Ah so i actually sort of agreed with what you said and you become a bigger jackass than the other fool on this thread.

Well done.

No need

OK.

That isn't what I said, as you well know. This is not a 'left V right' issue. Where do you get this train of thought from that it is left V right?

It is about a system that has fucked over people of colour for 400 years. They ended slavery then banged them in prison to work for free in there for the likes of Bank of America, Well Fago etc. The protests are about a rigged system

Funnily enough if poor white people over there opened their eyes they would realize they had more in common with the black communities, rise up and create better standards for all

Again, it is not left V right. It is racists V non-racists, the people Vs the rigged system

It appears the GOP have set their stall out.

 

[SWP's back]

How are they 'sly as fuck' in a crowd?
Also very surprised by your whole post.

Yeah he’s gone weird today.

The words are quoted from those who knew him.

Well they were never going to say he was a violent criminal who'd robbed a woman at gunpoint before were they?

Yep, don't go to rural Jamaica with a black girl if you're white.

I think its between the racists and the non-racists, but I may have missed something

Bit too basic dont you think?

 

[Bovril]

Kicking off in Paris big time, currently watching live on Ruptly them French know how to riot.

 

[Boris Becker’s Backhand]

We've seen it all before, this is small beer compared to the aftermath of Rodney King.

Young opportunist thugs stealing trainers from Macy's probably won't help change things if 8 years of Obama couldn't.

[FogBlueInSanFran]

Biden, Trump, Obama... cut from the same cloth.

This is such an ignorant, lazy take.

My wife’s nephew and niece both went to Rice University, very progressive

I don’t doubt it. As I said I was very pleasantly surprised by Houston. However, Ive spent a significant part of my career working with and for Texans, to not want my kids to share their values. In fact, that’s why Houston surprised me.
