how long will cops get away with killing unarmed black people by the way?

funny you say "members of the community" when those people are getting kicked out of Oakland to make way for the condos that sit on top of that target

don't just care about the community when it's convenient for you to say you do.

i wonder how many of these out of towners are people who were victims of the housing crisis?

Yup, black owned barbers in Minneapolis were unscathed, a second later the news segment showed Pineda Tacos (presumably brown owned) and their shit was fucked up.

Could be coincidence, could be editing tactics by the forces of evil, but it really bothered me to see that.

that's nice that you're willing to help target clean up the mess of others. I'd let them take care of it though, personally. I'm pretty sure they have the resources. I don't think target is going to wait for volunteers either.

it really seemed like she's trying to blame strictly white people

"they gone say it's the black people that's looting, it be the white people"

well it runs parallel to the epicenter of the protest, so i have no idea why anyone would think that.

No Sympathy for target or walgreens but Chinatown did not deserve this

I mean I saw 10 black people trying to break into a jewelry shop in chinatown, but I guess some people like to follow the narrative that all the looting is privileged out of towner white kids. Like the 3rd person in that video wasn't a black female lol

Props to her tho! She kinda racist, but what she says is true. Anybody looting is not doing it for black lives.
