St. Paul Mayor and Governor Tim Walz on Sunday backed down from their claims on Saturday that 80% of those arrested for looting were from out of state or out of town. They still stressed that “bad actors” from outside the cities played a significant role in the destruction.

Did the shelter in place order allow going out for groceries or walking your dog?Fuzzy Necromancer wrote: ↑Mon Jun 01, 2020 9:48 pm They are still putting my city under a 6PM-6AM curfew. What's the point of having a curfew for all non-essential personelle when you already have a shelter-in-place order?
Anyway it's not like they did a curfew whenever the sportsball team won and the fans rioted.

Is there a solid reference for false flag operations for these riots? I've heard conspiracy theories flying left and right, from the left and the right.

Fuzzy thinks tear gas is unacceptable and tasers have been criticized by many on the left, but Biden has a solution.

I live in the city where, decades ago, the police dropped a bomb on a residential area.

Failing to point out, that the bomb was dropped on a makeshit fortress of a house held by a militant and armed group. Granted it was a stupid an unnecessary decission that resulted in multiple houses burning down, but context is important.

The conspiracy theories I've heard from the right blame left-wing agitators, and the conspiracy theories I've heard from the left blame right-wing agitators.
Sounds like it might be a good idea to shut down the riots?

Re: Another day, another police beating in America
I'm sure the numerous non-involved people they killed, including the children, were very glad to know that. Ditto the people who's houses were destroyed and they were not compensated for the resulting damage, because I know you care so much about senseless property damage inflicted on people who have nothing to do with it. I'd call it less stupid than evil.Madner Kami wrote: ↑Tue Jun 02, 2020 1:33 am Failing to point out, that the bomb was dropped on a makeshit fortress of a house held by a militant and armed group.

The point I was trying to make, by the way, is that USA citizens exercising their second amendment rights can do fuckall to stop a bomb being dropped on them.
