Unfortunately, I feel he was correct. Lets see, protest something, so we should steal from shops, because that will show them. Just another reason for scum to be scum.
NO WELFARE NO JUSTICE
This is what we get from Democrat controlled big cities. The cops get orders to let it happen. Now they allow their cities to burn to the ground! Make no mistake they are following orders from the Dem bosses running their cities!
“This is not community unrest or civil disobedience. This is terrorism and the organizers and instigators must be investigated and charged federally.”
