In The 21st Century Leftists, Blacks, and College Students Have a Monoply on Rioting

[saintmichaeldefendthem]

Today blacks are burning down their neighborhoods, "burn this bitch down" and there are no white comparisons.

There never were.

And you say that I'm "ignorant of history".

Yes.

I am.

In your extensive studies in history, did you ever find mention of the "Battle in Seattle"?

You should be able to remember that one yourself, you can't possibly that young.

Did they burn down the neighborhood? They didn't, did they?

The rioters in the "Battle in Seattle" did more than $20 million dollars in property damage.

Do you think the damage from the Baltimore riots come close to that?

We'll see. My guess is property values in black dominated cities aren't nearly as high as in white dominated cities like Seattle. Care to wager?

In The 21st Century Leftists, Blacks, and College Students Have a Monoply on Rioting

There's been a lot of talk about rioting around the forum so I figured I would tally up all of the riots of the 21st Century to see if I can establish a trend. I pulled the below riots from Wikipedia. List of incidents of civil unrest in the United States - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia . For those of you wondering why there are so many black mob attacks missing, evidently the usual black mob attack doesn't count as rioting/civil unrest because they did it for no other reason then to have some fun or steal some loot and they lasted for only a few minutes to a few hours without a major police presence. My findings are the following.

In the 21st Century United States there have been

Blacks

Typical race-baiting racist post we see here on USMB.


Old white tea baggers don't have anything to riot about. All their rage is impotent.


What you're seeing in Baltimore is what's called real rage. Their actions are not legal, nor justified, but we (smart people) understand the root causes.

Real Rage huh? So they go out and rob a liquor store and steal drugs from a CVS? Looks like they want some freebies to me. And it certainly takes a smart person to twist their actions into something they're not. I will grant you that. I'm getting tired of the "It isn't justified, buuuuuuut ..... the black kids are angry" excuse. You want to see real black rage (at lease more authentic than the rage you speak of" click on the video below.

He is a Rightyloon racist pulling facts from Wikipedia of all places. Are you serious?

Fine, you compile a collection of civil unrest events and get back to me.

 

[Publius1787]

Young people have generally been the rioters since the beginning of civilization, older folks know better and have more to lose.

Agreed. But this thread is about which youngsters are doing the rioting.

 

[Publius1787]

I dunno. You compile that data yourself. List of incidents of civil unrest in the United States - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

So there's a chance it wasn't the minorities that you don't like?

Count them. List of incidents of civil unrest in the United States - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Are you sure wikipedia is a good source?

Wikipedia is never a good source. But it'll do for the purposes of this forum.

That sounds like a guy with an MA in History.

Now he's coming around.

OKOK, So they have a Monopoly save two riots by Puerto Ricans and Cubans. Shall we call it an oligopoly?

In order for your claim to be true, all riots would have had to have been carried out by groups who are leftist, black, AND college students. If each group does not fit all three criteria, then your claim fails. Because leftists can include blacks and non blacks, and college students as well as not college students. Blacks can include leftists and rightists, as well as college students and non college students. And college students can include rightists and leftists, and blacks and non blacks.

True -- that the opposite of "black" is not "leftist" does not seem to have occurred to the OP. He bends over backward to avoid listing "whites". I presume "leftists" is his euphemism for that.

At least a couple of those listings are bogus anyway. The "Miami FTAA" link does not describe a 'riot' at all. Neither does Katrina. I stopped reading there because as already noted, what's the point?

Your "data" is meaningless. For one thing as just noted you have events on here that are not riots at all; for another, you're using the word "leftists" as a race. Either that or you're drawing an apples-oranges comparison.

Someone inquired back on page one what the point might be here. Was that ever answered? Because I'm moving on .

You've been trying to move on for some time now. I'm surprised you haven't done so yet. Many of the college incidents cannot be considered riots but I included them anyway. The facts remain. The left, blacks, and college students are the unruly riot champions. You got data that proves otherwise? If not shut up. I will happily accept data provided by you. But you wont do that because your data will come to the same conclusion.
