IS IT RIGHT TO LOOT!?

The fuck do I care either way? Is it right to choke innocents to death? One is a life...one is some fucking stone and wood.*

ANYONE (and I mean ANYONE) who is not a part of this movement and this belief that the system NEEDS the rioting and NEEDS to be torn down - is in the wrong. Period.

*Oh, and how come the ones doing the choking are always AUTHORITY FIGURES WE PUT IN PLACE TO PROTECT AND SERVE?

And then the business leave town, taking jobs with them.
No jobs means no money.
No money means writing a bad check out of desperation.

A very good point (Although I have no desire to be like The Joker and am not an Anarchist or a nihilist like him)

But yes - the "comfortable lies" we tell ourselves are over at this point. I mean literally just turn ON THE TV. Look at people punching cops in the face for trying to make arrests amidst the protests. The comfort is over.

However - what do you do when the one doing the "far graver invasion of another's rights than the original shoplifting" is THE ACTUAL POLICE (THOSE IN CHARGE)?

(The answer has to do with fire and burning it down btw)

Am I the bad guy for saying that's probably not ideal, and that the rioting should be focus toward government institutions like police stations?

Destroying the lives of innocent people by burning their business to the ground is not "justice."

Stop pretending you want justice. You don't. You want mob rule where people are torn apart by the mob based on feelings instead of being judged in a trial with facts and evidence.

The fact that TC isn't warned and shut up is telling. This guy doesn't understand that revenge, violence, and hatred solves nothing. Our economy is failing, our buildings are burning, families are being torn apart, and people WILL die on streets across the nation, but all of that is fine, according to TC, because "the system has to fail".

This. I don't give a fuck about Target because they'll be fine, but destroying local businesses (whose owner's livelihoods depend on their work) and government housing units is wrong no matter what. Destroying an innocent person's home/livelihood isn't necessarily as bad as murdering an innocent person, but that doesn't mean it should be tolerated.

Look dude, what change has years of peaceful protesting brought? More dead at the hands of the cops.
Any society functions on the social contract. When one side refuses to live up to their end of said contract they have no basis to demand the other side continue to abide by it. If the Government and Law Enforcement refuse to execute their part of the contract then the average citizen is not bound to follow their rules.
