    It appears that the most unrest is coming from inner cities that Democrats have controlled for 50+ years

    No they don't. People need the right to defend themselves, their families, and even their businesses. Not deputize themselves when they see fit. If the police are overwhelmed, that is the reason we have the national guard.

    You don’t think people should have the right to defend their businesses, homes, property and lives?

    My bad if that came out as though individuals should go on the offensive... Quite the contrary.    People need to have the ability to defend themselves, like you said.. 

    BTW, I think it's long overdue that this country start using water cannons to disperse these MoFos that are the rioters and looters.  These guys are just playing a game of tag throughout the communities.  Get a few of these water cannon trucks and nail these jerks, and help put out the fires in the process.    Where is the suggestion box ?  Lol.

    I can remember the Los Angeles riots..... Korean storeowners in Koreantown assembled into militias to protect themselves, their families, and businesses and repelled the mobs with handguns, rifles and assault weapons.. because police had abandoned much of Koreatown...The neighborhood suffered major property damage and five storeowners by killed during the roiting..

    The National Guard arrived isn't arrive for 24 more hours...

     Situations like the LA riots, which, maybe rare, can occur anywhere today in American streets..

    Note :Congress had not banned assault weapons at this time( the sound of assault weapons alone can be very scary)..

     I remember those LA riots as well with the Korean store owners...   Those were some bad, bad areas back then in South Central and surrounding communities.  I bet most of these storeowners today (the independent ones) in these riot areas don't even own a firearm.  I'm sure they never thought that hoodlums would come in from other cities and overrun their cities..  

    Speaking of Riots in LA, I'm not sure why they have to take place every 30 years or so.. 60s, 90s, and now today, again.   WTH is going on ?   Like clockwork.

    Raleigh Police Chief Cassandra Deck-Brown held a press conference on Sunday morning after the mass violence and looting by leftist protesters overnight.

    “I will not put an officer in harms way to protect the property inside of a building,” says the Raleigh Police Chief.

    Must be great to live in area where your 1 video away from losing everything, it's like sitting on a razor blade... No Thanks.

    Property values in all those hot zones just took a dramatic dive as well... Response has to be stepped up, can't have anarchy.

    To anyone who votes democrat, those are the people your voting with... No way there's a significant % of Trump supporters out there.

    I saw an idiot with a sign yesterday, it read "Abolish Police"... A response to that isn't even warranted.

    Killer... Good to see you around .  I saw another one that was pretty pathetic.   It wasn't the typical "F the police" and the like...  No, it just simply said

    "All cops are bad"   paint_help

    Interesting to see the cops kneel w/ protesters in NYC, and walk w/ protesters in West Hollywood.  Let's see if this quells some of the anger w/ them,  and the looters & rioters that are just taking advantage of the situation..  

    I'm not sure how many more nights we can take of this nonsense ...  Time to bring in the cavalry if the states won't do it themselves.

    Probably would do fine if they just increased their use of pepper spray, bean bags, and rubber rounds. There are rubber shotgun rounds that nobody is walking through.

    True, but these are still  fired rounds , and officers don't use them often enough probably for this very reason.   .  Use the

    Water cannons against these lowlifes that are looting

    That's the issue. They work fine but officers are afraid to use them. All of this boils down to a pooe vetting process and hiring people who lack the judgement to be cops. You have a handful of bad apples to quick to use lethal force and a the whole rest of the department too afraid to use non-lethal force

    Do people think Democrats are doing a good job in the inner cities they have controlled for 50+ years?

    And is the Republican Party doing a good job in the southern states they have controlled since the carpetbaggers got run out? First, they convinced those folks to work cheap and steal jobs from the industrial heartland; then they exported those jobs to Mexico and Asia. Sometimes you want to be careful with this "pot calling the kettle black" type of thing. Most Blue states are self supporting (excess funds to the Treasury), while that happy band of southern states are for the most part on the federal dole (sucking the federal teat). 

    peace

    “They convinced those folks to work cheap and steal jobs from the industrial heartland; then they exported those jobs to Mexico and Asia.”

    Who is “they”? 

    The Clinton Administration had a lot to do with this.

    Thats certainly not what Trump republicans are in favor of.

    And states like NY give more than they get only because they have the billionaires paying a high federal tax rate. 

    Certainly isn’t because these states have done a splendid job with their budgets or policies.

    Very interesting that you make that connection..   you seem to make a connection between "black people " and rioters and looters.  I never said it.. but what does that say about YOU  ? 

    But you do need to see an optometrist if you can't see that most of the people, but not all, are black people rioting and looting.

    Democrats point at billionaires to show inequality and say things like “there should be no billionaires” — but love using the federal taxes paid by billionaires to prop up their argument showing how well blue states are doing
