Not worried about any riots in Denver. There are about 10 black people in the state.

Yeah.

Any demonstrations will be done by stoned, white college students.

There's a lot of money, power and political hay to be made from racial tension. There was no way that the profiteers from this were going to allow the facts to get into the way of being outraged.

You would know better than I. I just thought there were a few parts of downtown Denver that were minority/majority.

Well obviously there are more than 10 black people in Colorado. There are probably a dozen or so in my office alone.

The Census Bureau has the black population of Colorado at 4.4%, so yeah, very few compared to Georgia (31.4%) or even Missouri (11.7%).

There are a bunch of rich liberals here, though, who aren't living unless they are complaining about something, so there will probably be some small demonstrations.

I didn't think so, but wasn't sure. Just did a google search and it doesn't look like there is one in Colorado. Bunch of racists out here

Streets named after MLK

If racial harmony were to break out, per MLK's dream, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Joseph Lowery and the whole lot would starve in the streets.

And that's not necessarily a bad thing.

It's kinder than what they deserve but the outcome would still be a positive for sure.

ETA: obviously referring to Sharpton et al

I love the headline... it's not a riot, it's a "rally".
