For real. They are rioting over one criminal getting shot, burning a flag that millions have died for. One cause greatly outweighs the other.


Well they fought for the right for that flag to be burned.

I do too, but what you have to understand is America is not what it used to be. We have decimated our culture, language, and borders (stolen shamelessly from Michael Savage) and exchanged it for political correctness.

America is well on it's way to complete disintegration, and this story is an example of why.

True. But it boggles the mind that, (1) so few businesses were boarded up, and (2) so few business owners were on site to protect their businesses. Everyone knew the police weren't going to do anything to protect private property, just like last time.

America doesn't have a language unless you count Native American

I guess that's why all of our road signs are in Cherokee, huh?

Yes-the USA does and it's English. It's not a sanctioned national language, but it is a predominant one.

Are you just playing devil'a advocate or what do you believe?

yep.

you loot, we shoot.

Sad that people raise their children to behave this way. One of the many downfalls of America. Destroy others property.....the property that pays for you to sit on your porch and have 6 kids.

But for what that cloth represents.


You can choose not to wave it or display it proudly, but don't destroy a symbol of a freedom so many died and continue to die for.

Isn't a person'so right to destroy the flag in and of itself a greater symbol of freedom?

You have that freedom, but it's a disrespectful and classless way to express that freedom.

That flag is more than a piece of cloth to anyone that has ever buried a loved one with it draped over the casket.

Not surpising, as is the fact that what happened was not surprising. The media runs from the truth on this and many other issues. Wonder why there are more blacks arrested in that area??? The answer is on every TV set in the world, but we will spend tax money for a Fedderal investigation into it


The parents of these kids (thugs) are the problems. Not the teachers, not the system, not the cops.......their own worst enemy is in the mirror. Until ........wait......it would be ignorant to even type that......we are all fricked

Eh the unrest is bad but the fact they didn't even indict this dude is worse. C'mon - we all know how easy it is to get a Grand Jury indictment and yet nothing. They didn't even send it to trial. And after hearing that prosecutor's freaky arse press conference I wonder if he even tried.

What a freaking mess.
