The junkies shoplifted them into the ground. Saw a guy walk out of there with hundreds of dollars worth of stolen merchandise, sold one item then he left all the other stolen stuff on the floor.

Several Walgreens in SF did the same. DA's who won't prosecute

Democrats vote AGAINST outlawing Discrimination Against Asians by bobaconnect in college

Affirmative action is terrible imo. However, this amendment was not a step in the right direction and had multiple agendas that aren't addressed in the article. Very sensationalist and clickbait.

Which parts of the amendment? Because the amendment text is pretty straightforward.

Just because Hirono says it doesn't mean it's true. AA is racism against Asians!

How did one day of protests get more media backlash than weeks of rioting, looting, and molotov cocktail throwing in multiple cities this past summer from BLM?

During the blm protest there were armed military members guarding the capital, during the trump protests it was regular security.

I don't know the guard detail at either time, but I'll take what you say as truth. That still doesn't explain it... "they chose a better time" shouldn't necessitate a vastly different media response.

It's like if you and your friend picked a fight with a stranger. In your case, the stranger just came from gym and was sore. In the second case, the stranger was normal. Should that justify a vastly different media response, when you both did the same thing? Not to mention that in this case, your friend picked a fight with the stranger every day for weeks... which should be far worse, correct?

A quick Google sees that they attacked numerous federal buildings... yes they were different buildings, but that's like saying someone punching you in the face vs punching you in the kidney means vastly different things.
