I watched online Hundreds of Blacks last night rip off a Walmart in Philly


Oct 28, 2020, 10:39 PM

and fled with the stolen goods in their cars..so many going into different directions to escape that they almost hit each other & pedestrians racing to & fro.

Questions:
1. Why Blacks & not Whites (neighborhood location?).

2. Why do they think that stealing is right? Are they that poor (the hundreds of cars & cell phones being used would say no).

3. How can this be a way to express racial inequity?

4. Shouldn't these people actually be called criminals
rather than protesters!

Geez, what has our country come to, particularly in Democratic-run cities & states.

My dad was at the VA in Philly this weekend and monday getting his heart checked out. They could not get an uber or a cab from the hotel because of the "racial unrest" and found themselves walking, my father with a cane, to the car through the protests. Neither he or my stepmom died, so that is good news Bill.

You should ask a "Black" since u think they're all the same

I looked at the photos and videos of the incident you are citing. You can't possibly tell what race 90% of the people are since it's dark, their faces and bodies are covered and the photos/videos are mostly taken from a helicopter that is above and far away from the crowd. Of the handful whose faces you can make out, one was clearly white and another 2 were not clearly black. Usually people don't make their ignorance so obvious, but lumping people together like that, especially when your assumptions are wrong, is the dictionary definition of prejudice.

1. Why Blacks & not Whites (neighborhood location?).
How do you with 100% certainty that they were all black?

2. Why do they think that stealing is right? Are they that poor (the hundreds of cars & cell phones being used would say no).
My guess is most of these people are opportunistic thieves, given the chance they;ll take it, much like a lot of people in the country.

3. How can this be a way to express racial inequity?
It's not.

4. Shouldn't these people actually be called criminals
rather than protesters!
They are. The majority of protestors are not the rioter/looters, that is a whole other group of people.

Bill,

These people are criminals, but there actions are loosely connected to the protests in Philly, so they get lumped in together. Sometimes criminals take advantage of civil protests for their own selfish gains.
