Doug, many times I post from my cellphone and that is why it is always one paragraph.
I really hope they can hold the peace tonight. This is embarrassing how unprepared the State of Minnesota was for this. By letting this get out of control, it has spread to so many other cities. There has to be a hard curfew tonight. And yes, we all have noticed that many of the so called protestors are coming in from out of town. I am watching the press conference by the all of the government officials in Minnesota and now I can see why things have spiraled out of control. You can't have a policy decision to let protestors burn off steam by allowing them to start fires, loot and a general lack of lawlessness. There should have been 3,000 national guard troops on the ground by Wednesday morning, not 500. Keep in mind how many of the elected officials are black. This isn't a racial issue and the irresponsible media has to stop making it one.

The whites do not understand or care to understand blacks fight against social injustice. It’s a big game to them. They run up, create problems and then run away and blacks get blamed and more police violence ensures. They are trying to tell people to stop. “It’s not what we want.” Not the message we want to send.
Pretty shocking

Oh so you don’t think blacks in Minneapolis have a right to be angry? That’s how angry they are.
Question remains, why are the white privileged kids doing it? What are they that mad about that they want to break shit?
Im all with in a racist society, it’s not enough to be non-racist and sit on the sidelines and refuse to denounce it. We need anti-racists...... but this isn’t supporting anyone or anything. They are trying to create havoc.
Nah. I’ll never forget in my life the time I was at the gym during the Freddie grey riots, and this lady leaned over to me and said, “isn’t what they are doing soooo stupid?”
That moment right there put a lot of things in perspective for me.
No clue. Not even one ounce of understanding. And keep in mind I live in one of the best areas in the country. This is white privilege to the T.
