The violence that broke out in American cities this weekend goes far beyond justified anger at the killing of George Floyd on Monday. The rioters are looting shops and attacking police with impunity, and they threaten a larger breakdown of public order. Protecting the innocent and restoring order is the first duty of government.
The violent scenes in more than 30 cities were the worst in decades. Minneapolis police were overrun on Friday as neighborhoods and a police precinct burned. Los Angeles police were assaulted and...
opinion ya wanna screw up ur own town, enjoy!.... don’t fix it, just leave it so they can be reminded everyday
opinion It's an uprising against tyranny. Why the protests can't stop! 50+ years of peaceful protests have done nothing to stop violence to the people by its tyrannical government system. The USA wasn't created out of a peaceful demonstration; remember that. protests GeorgeFloyd
opinion I mean, you're right, but then this is not exactly a hot take. This fact gets brought up every time, so I'm not sure what saying it yet again usefully brings to the discussion.
opinion Nah we taking it to you guys
opinion For centuries minorities have survived, slavery, beatings, lynchings, segregation, rape & poverty while being forced to build our railways, roads & bridges. Despite being held down they overcame & built businesses & communities. Donald Trump isn't man enough to bring them down!
opinion Shut up
opinion Going up in flames by the same minorities and poor that live there. F them, Let them suffer.
opinion Many USA media including WSJ supported riots in Hongkong. Now you have your days! Enjoy!
opinion just like in the sixties. they only hurt themselves. do ppl want to help ppl that pull stunts like this? not.
opinion They will remain poor, and self victimized. This a vicious cycle put up by the Democrats DemocratsAreDomesticTerrorists DemocratsAreDestroyingAmerica DemVotebyMailScam AntifaTerrorists
opinion The leadership of our major metropolitan areas are hopeless. They are politicians not leaders. Before doing anything they must study how their actions will affect their re-election chances.
opinion The Wall Street Journal is uniquely qualified to explain what harms poor black people
opinion so why are they poor & minority.
opinion until 'media' holds politicians accountable for the industrialized racism of identity politics nothing will change
opinion Yup
opinion to all the ppl outside of the usa, wanna come here for a vacay?
opinion And clearly have only themselves to blame. They're worse then the cops.
opinion As has always been the case under similar circumstances. The question is, as Rome burns, where is Nero?
opinion ...and in the world without end. Amen. You will never erase the past. You will never eliminate prejudice. As lacking as the US is, it is one of the few countries where social mobility is possible. So, impoverished, colored brethren, take/make opportunity and keep it for you, kids
opinion Are you so naive or just pure evil, you rich people was the one that creates the poor and minority neighborhoods.
opinion And the WSJ isn’t particularly free of blame. Hosting commentary by folks such as KarlRove doesn’t help.
opinion Criminals steal& loot!Mlk,Ghandi,gave a blueprint of peaceful protesting
opinion Those poor citizens are always the biggest victims.
opinion It will be no different than past race riots.
opinion Reminder: no milk/antacid please. Water is just fine
opinion Many that are committing these atrocities do NOT care about others except themselves and their agendas. ♀️
opinion No worry fire started there then spread to wealthier corporate places. Unlike people fire and epidemic do not discrimate.
opinion the innocents and minorities who have no voices are always the victims. OWG
opinion Utter nonsense, victims will be all communities and all the people. The reaping of the people voted into office especially Trump and most of the GOP.
opinion Alas, very true.
opinion 我骄傲的宣布：我们伟大的美国发动了自由民主的“美丽的风景线”运动！
opinion
opinion What an absolute shit take. Poor and minority neighborhoods that haven't already been decimated by brutal policing and undermined by corporate looting
opinion Many retail businesses in these neighborhoods are ruined...poor people will be out of work...income will be lost. Those that touted the riots won’t be affected though, they are the super rich, the famous politicians and celebrities. This is a vicious cycle.
opinion It's because Markets are fine and only go UP. If Markets will go down more than 50% the rich and super rich will also be in the victims of chaos...
opinion The WSJ editorial board out here with one of the least convincing pieces of concern trolling I’ve ever seen. The main victims of everything in the US are the poor and the minorities. And the WSJ has always been there to explain why all of it was in the public good.
opinion Yup. No cops to answer calls.
opinion When you inject Military equipment, Training, Intelligence, and broad Surveillance power into the local Police Force, you change its Culture & Mentality. CivilUnrest becomes Resistance. Israel trained a lot of our police & provided SOPs. It should have stayed out of it.
opinion USA civil war 1861 to 1865, 620k to 750k soldiers died, with many civilians. claimed lives of 10 % of all Northern men 20–45, & 30% of all Southern white men aged 18–40. Do not repeat history.Civil conflict deadly to all. China’s Regime, Iran, North Korea awaiting USA’s fall.
opinion So, the same who are the main victims of police brutality then.
opinion In Hong Kong&US protests we find pretty much the same underlying reason :We're socialising total lidership disapproval !! In one case these people are called terrorist , in the other a special status communist but whatever you turn the coin it seems to be all fake news Bitcoin
opinion What happened to human rights groups United Nations or European countries condemning what’s happening
opinion They did it to themselves.
opinion revolution revolution revolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution revolutionrevolution
opinion They should go to richer hoods
opinion
opinion They are ALWAYS the main victims. That’s the issue.
opinion Not so fast WSJ, it is only June 1st. Someday you will have the courage to go off script
opinion
opinion No shit? Poor people are the victims of every bad thing that happens in America. The rich can afford to insulate from it and largely ignore it. I think that's a large part of the protests, but I could be wrong.
opinion TrumpEqualsChaos
opinion 'If the president comes out of his bunker and sees his shadow, we’ll have six more weeks of protests.'
opinion Yeah and who cares!
opinion Shoutout to Antifa
opinion shocking
opinion And celebrities are helping rioters and looters rather than helping them.
opinion After the coronavirus disproportionally affected inhabitants of our major cities, riots2020 may be the final nail in the coffin of city living. Why anyone would want to live in, or have a business in, a democratically led city is beyond logical explanation.
opinion Seems we have a failure of leadership by all politicians (Dems and Reps) Country experienced same events in 2014 and 2015 and we had a “blue ribbon committee” of experts What happened? We need serious people to make change
opinion lets get the 2 parent system back in style.
opinion So they're the perpetrators and the victims. Doesn't that mean the media won't talk about it?
opinion At least now businesses know which neighborhoods just aren't worth rebuilding in.
opinion The victims are the aggressors lol
opinion More bailouts for big business!!
opinion *'अगर मुसलमान देशभक्त होता तो।आज पाकिस्तान, बांग्लादेश नहीं होता।'* *'सिर्फ 'हिंदुस्तान' होता।' 'कृपया गलत फहमी ना पालिए।'* *कडवा है लेकिन सत्य है* *⛔👊👊गब्बर🇮🇳🚩⛔*
