Post subject:  St Louis Looters

A shooting of an unarmed black man by a St Louis Police Officer, has resulted in hoards of blacks breaking windows and looting stores in St Louis. One idiot who admitted to looting a quick stop in St Louis, said he felt they (the looters) were justified in stealing the goods as retaliation for the death. Never mind that he did not know the dead man. Never mind that the stores had nothing to do with the shooting . Oh, and definitely ignore that the looting will not bring the man back to life or benefit his family. Hell, lets call a spade a spade....the looters just used the shooting as an excuse to loot the stores, plain and simple.

What if looting did bring the dead back to life?

Would it be ok then?

At least then, the justification might seem reasonable.

Is that what you call that?

I thought he was acting out again.

Steak may or may not be involved. He likes to come by and share his worldview on race related issues to get a response.

This effort is obviously linked to Mac's absence, otherwise ES would have been preparing to call the show tomorrow and share personal observations on how most center fielders tend to occupy space between the left and right fielders.

Ah yea, but have you seen the St. Louis "Roll 'Em Up Kids" or the St. Louis "Kids, you noticing this plights"?

No fishing/steak involved. I just felt like expressing an opinion. In my opinion, the press has done a poor job of pointing out how pointless it is to punish store owners and the companies that insure the stores, by looting them. If they wanted to stage a march/rally and invite the press to hear their grievances, that would make sense. but the truth is, they just used an excuse to loot the stores. They used the shooting as that excuse. By doing what they did, their voices will not be heard. They will be ignored. For they are the voices of thieves, not worthy of attention. Dr. King was heard because he marched peacefully even when many made that very difficult. he turned the other cheek and because he took abuse, rather than fighting back, people listened when he spoke and considered his message. Had he used violence instead, he would have never made much progress. The thieves probably have nothing of substance to convey anyway, but if they did, it would be ignored.

Their criminal behavior got my attention, as it has gotten the attention of many. But their actions now help to dismiss, rather than give credence to any message they might have otherwise gotten across.

But you're talking about it. And bringing attention to their cause.
It's almost like you're partly responsible for their behavior.

So do you align yourself more with the "By any means necessary" approach?

I align myself with people who believe in personal responsibility and people who aren't world class frauds.
