I've been saying it since Ferguson but I am absolutely #teamriot riots fuckin rule

 

Clearly you have too much fire in your eyes. We're not going to be able to speak as two adults right now. I'm not going to try to explain how useless and immature those types behaviors are.

 

They aren't useless. Violent resistance against fascism is necessary. Imo

 

You're just gonna equate it to the racism and bigotry of the Trump campaign and then run away when someone challenges you to elaborate on why you feel that way?

 

Courting the democratic voters with riots seems like it's not gonna work very well. Don't see 60m people getting on that train.

 

Seeing reports that 9% of registered democrats voted for Trump. 7% of registered republicans voted for Clinton.

 

If you don't have fire in your eyes then clearly you don't understand why people are outraged.

 

I just don't understand the concept of physically destroying one's community. Protesting..absolutely. Rioting..not my thing.

 

Tbf a giant hate mob just voted Trump into office.

 

"hollywood"

 

If you don't like rioting, fine. But if you belittle it that's not cool.

 

Because they don't feel like it's their community. They're disenfranchised. They feel powerless and like they have no control over their own community

 

fuck the bush family

 

Jesus.

The new normal sucks.

 

I didn't belittle it I just don't understand it.

 

I'm not courting shit. Riots aren't an organizational tool, they happen organically in times of extreme duress. Would you say this shit to the Watts Rebels? that directly got CRA68 even on the table.

 

I don't think the people rioting give a shit about democratic voters. Trump's election is a pretty good time to reset the entire system.

 

I don't like rooting for injuries, but hope this dude needs 20 Tommy Johns now.

 

You didn't. Other guy did.
