      I would never condone violence against anybody for any reason, but that racist got exactly what was coming to him.

            That guy is lucky to be alive. A kick like that is often fatal.

                Don't know what "aftermarket ventilation" mean, but they kicker should be identified and prosecuted the full extent of the law.

                    Scary scene indeed. Imagine the terror of being a protester and not being able to so much as shove a cop or throw a water bottle at them without them totally flipping out and overreacting.

                      So, who had "Riots in the Streets" on their 2020 Bingo Card?

                      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                        @George-K LOL...add it to the yearly list! I wonder what July will bring. Maybe we'll see fireworks (literal and figurative).

                          One possibility is that the multiple horrors of these riots is that they won’t happen again closer to the election. If past is prologue this will be a distant memory. On the other hand this could be our “arab spring”.

                              Yes, let’s use disproportionate police violence to end these riots that were started because of disproportionate police violence.

                                It's past time to thin the herd. I don't care if the police do it, or if Henry Hardware Store does it.

                                    We don't have riots here.

                                    Maybe it's because we don't have many people, or maybe because so many carry guns.
