    What would it take to discourage rioting every time an "innocent" guy is brutalized by police?
    What's next? Are they going to visit your neighborhood and set your own house on fire?
    How many of those roiters live on taxes that the burnt by them businesses paid for them?

    Actually Hitler’s rhetoric EMBOLDENED people to riot!
    Kristallnacht - Wikipedia
    And as history showed-that was a taste of things to come.

    I live long enough to know that second chances don't work. It is one thing to pay the debt by doing time but another to expect respect from everyone. One must be earned.

    More’s the pity. If we all thought like that this country would fall into anarchy.

    I mentioned Hilter and recounted it so that there was no misunderstanding or confusion.
    What I meant is that he would know exactly how to deal with rioters in order to prevent such riots from reoccurring. What he did to his opponents...
    Anarchy is exactly what I saw on TV: Minnapolis burning.

    Order will be restored eventually. It takes time. Just like with the Watts riots and later the Rodney King riots order was restored.
    Now if you want real anarchy,try a hotspot like Somalia or Yemen,where children are sometimes holding AK-47s(the real deal,not the Chinese knockoffs) and RPGs!

    You are the one shuffling terms like Anarchy
    for no reason in the first place. Go to your wikipedia and do some reading. I just hope you are not on rioters side. If so. there is nothing to talk about.

    On the contrary,I don’t condone the rioting either,it doesn’t do anyone a bit of good. But what you’re seeing on the news is NOTHING compared to some other parts of the world. At the same time those folks in the Twin Cities are frustrated. This isn’t the first time an issue with law enforcement has happened up there. And it seems like the powers that be didn’t take a hint the first time around.
    They aren’t listening to the very people they swore to serve and protect,and this was the end result.

    Wow, wonder if you'll have the same "oh well" attitude when it comes to Fitchburg, maybe your street even...

    I've noticed the riots only happen in areas with a blame the victim attitude.

    If you were to shoot a looter in some areas there isn't a jury that would convict you.
