They all used the promotional code “Floyd “ for 100% off all items in stock

Here is a clear picture of what 90% of those "protesters" are about.. free shopping !!
We need a bigger and stronger police force.. not weaklings with no power, this whole thing just proves it.


A luxury car dealership in San Leonardo, California was the latest target of high-end looters. Dealership owner Mike Sullivan estimates that 80 vehicles worth $2.7 million were stolen

Many people loose the veneer of basic principles if the opportunity arises and it may benefit them.
Unfortunately this is due to a bad upbringing.
These folk think it is there due to steal.
If you see some one drop money, do you consider it your luck, or do you return it.
This is criminal behaviour, plain and simple, the whys, are irrelevant.

Tragically, all this reinforces the stereo types that form the gut instinct of those charged with keeping law and order.
This behaviour can easily be used as a mitigating factor to why excessive force is too often considered reasonable.

His opinion concerned 90% of the protestors, not 90% of the protests. While that number is high, in my estimation, many thugs are taking advantage of the situation.
Peaceful protests during the day are hijacked by Antifa/BLM/others at night as they incite riots and promote looting, vandalism and arson. Most rioters are doing it for fun, free stuff for themselves, and stuff to be sold later. It only takes a few Antifa to stash bricks and bottles in repositories and incite petty criminals to move up to arson and murder from shoplifting.
The world can see what is happening, once again. Some high profile folks are in denial and are justifying the violence until, of course, they are on the receiving end.

My math formula still applies.

The protesters have had plenty of time to get their point across. It’s time to start dropping the hammer on looters.

Apparently, you cared enough to call him out on it and I was wondering what your estimate was. Will you be in the 100% stupid category or only in the 90% stupid category?
It is still not to late to edit your post.

Hey now..
All those commercial items needed to feel some justice.

This whole damn fiasco has nothing to do with justice.
Seeing pallets of bricks sitting in the most convenient spots...
Thousands of dollars worth of brick by the way. Even cheap bricks are $500 a pallet.

Somebody with some serious bucks is behind this crap.

Because it was a stupid percentage. But since you care, my anecdotal percentage based on my hometown was 0% since there was no looting. Nor in the three towns surrounding us in yesterday's protests.

Why would I refute something I never said? You truly are confused.

Yet. Self destruction of one’s own neighborhoods will be one of the biggest legacies of the”protests”, and the lack of condemnation of all violence by the left. The lack of condemnation for the sacking and torching of their neighbor’s businesses and livelihoods.

It’s like the left practices class warfare, and uses “by any means necessary” as political tools. The classic orchestrate a crisis, then push your the only one with a solution.

Where is strength of argument and logic listed on the 13 rules for radicals again....... composed by who?

Spare the left/right BS, both sides are crap.

Looting in the name of Floyd sounds like a rage against the machine song.

Anyway, 90% of protestors are about protesting. That’s why the protests are bigger than the looting. Hyperbole is fun and all, but saying 90% of protestors are looting is really no different than when somebody says all cops are racist murderers or when blm says its open season on black men.
