#2 - wrong - those ARE the looters. Why cover your face to try and hide if all your doing is protecting?

do your research there douchebag ree. there were many shops where blacks took up arms in defense, because the police force was overextended with the riots and protests! guarding the shops was too much for them to deal with so people actually stepped up to make a difference, BLACK people. maybe you should extract your head from your ass and figure out that not all blacks were out there looting and pillaging like a bunch of vikings. then again, it would seem from your tag that your head is firmly planted with an airtight seal. i really feel sorry for you.

one more thing? i've unsubscribed from this thread, so in the most likely event of you trolling me, i won't know it and you'll be doing nowt but wasting your time. cheerio you hater!
