#8 Even if the rioters were apprehended (which they likely won't be), Target would decline to press charges. Shrinkage is already built in to the marketing plan and price point.

#17 Fox news Martha MacCallum had a story on the follies in Minneapolis last evening. Footage running behind MaCallum showed a protester waving a "Fuc* Trump" sign.

Appears to be in a league of the politically butthurt and like minded.

"Why can't we all just get along?"

#18 Well, B., surely very many delusional people out there also believe Trump is a fault for this. Trump surely wishes he could have been there himself, personally putting his left knee on the neck of that victim.

Link yesterday had all the normal Red Carpet Guests.

Girlfriend had scabies bigger than the white girl crying on her shoulder.

One had a sign, something like, "Let us protest like we are armed white males." or something.

Ah, I was going with Just Another Day in the Neighborhood.

If y'all have a problem with looters, get yourself some roof-Koreans. Or a Texas Ranger.

#23 One thing I like about where I live in Texas, the rioters wouldn't come anywhere near our neighborhoods. Armed rednecks* would outnumber them 50 to 1.

* Armed rednecks included alot of people from Africa, Indonesia, Paki, India, etc. My neighbors are from around the world but the vast majority have full Texan.

#24 So MSM has gotten what they wanted when they first started reporting this story. And, of course, OrangeManBad.

#25 Armed rednecks included alot of people from Africa, Indonesia, Paki, India, etc.

My sister-in-law was travelling to some African country, and we looked it up online. Primary crops are tobacco and corn, poor infrastructure...

Oh, like Kentucky!

#26 Nothing says Social Justice like a nice new Sony 65" 4K TV looted from Target, and setting fire to the local auto parts shop.

Lesson learned - a lot of local folks of color have taken up arms to protect their businesses. I wonder if they might reconsider the second amendment and which party kept the government from seizing their firearms... Someone ought to run an ad.
