    If you want to talk about looting I think we should discuss the looting of American tax payer and emergency funds by corrupt politicians and multinational corporations. What these rioters are doing aren't even a fraction of what the elite class has done to pillage this country during this pandemic, but I understand it makes for better TV.

    How many billions did Boeing get and why did they just lay off 7,000 employees?

    Let's talk about that instead of which Target got looted.

    TOLD YOU TO BUY THE DIP, SON. YOU COULD HAVE LOOTED THE STOCK MARKET.

    That Target will be a microcosm of what that area will look like in the future. They won't recover. And to that I say, "you did this to yourself". I mean, at least this will bring joy into their lives, I guess?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Reminds me of your weekly "This is great news for John McCain" posts about each thing that happened. Him suspending his campaign to rush back to Washington to "deal with" the financial meltdown, Joe the Plumber, etc.

    I have no recollection of this, senator.

    I never voted for McCain. Voted for Alan Keyes.

    In other news, there were approximately 800,000 police officers who did their job and did not commit a crime yesterday.

    That was strange, almost like watching a movie about fascism. Did you see how there was another reporter under similar circumstances, who was white, and they weren't arrested?

    Whoopee do. But whatever floats your boat, goober.
    I wouldn't be so quick to insult a 100% disabled in combat Veteran if I were you.
    Where do you get off talking to people like that?

    Big difference between a peaceful assembly/demonstration versus rioting/looting...the former is legal while the latter is not.
