Looters hit businesses in Philadelphia on Tuesday for a second straight night, as authorities struggled to contain civil unrest sparked by a video showing police fatally shooting Walter Wallace Jr., a Black man who was holding a knife.
Police said late Tuesday about a thousand people were looting businesses northeast of downtown, miles from the West Philadelphia neighborhood where the violence was concentrated a night earlier.
Harry_MiniumODU How many police does he have to stab before it's considered justified force? If ur brandishing a knife, gun or resisting arrest be prepared for the consequences. It's simple when law enforcement tells u to stop. Stop!!
So pathetic. Looting has zero to do with addressing these murdering police; and everyone who stole property should be arrested and charged.
They were just trying to free all the shoes that were locked in cages and inhumanely kept in boxes.
“Holding” a knife?! What a misleading headline! He was advancing towards the officers aggressively with the knife, refusing to drop it when commanded to. And has a long rap sheet, including threatening to kill police!
If Biden win...this will be our life’s everyday!! Trump2020
Just criminals. An excuse to steal. Counter productive to the cause.
White suprematist cells start and continue the looting.
Maybe cuZ you consistently pump “holding a knife”
He was threatening with a knife and deserved whathe got. Good riddance
Charging with. Knife, did you even watch the video
At least we got some of these kids working now. I saw footage of a bunch of them carrying plastic bags, must be about to clean up their city. That’s the spirit.
The future of America under Kamala Harris
Stop thinking and pay attention because the day is coming that if could get well be real freedom fighters being called terrorist!
and charging at cops with said knife. 🙄
These garbage governors and mayors are working hard every day, asking people to vote for the Republican Party as soon as possible. I even suspect that these governors are actually Trump's allies.
As Martin Luther King, Jr. once said: 'A riot is the language of the unheard.” 🤍 So, PLEASE VOTE! Instead of looting and riots. 💙💙💙IVotedEarly
It's a set up ( game on ) ...we have to win PA by any means necessary- we have to poke the swing voters hard - this is how we do it!
that how O'Biden ghetto rats do there X Mass shopping last 45 years New 4th coming
It's interesting that you call it 'civil unrest' as opposed to 'rioting.' Have you clowns joined the AP in calling rioting 'civil unrest'? Or is this just a copy desk preference by some politically correct twenty-something?
Not simply holding - but-Running at the officers with a knife- get the facts straight. JournalismIsDead
This is the innocent victim that the main stream media wants you to see. A violent criminal with a extensive violent criminal history. The polices actions are justified.
Wow, Trump's America is bleak. He told us he alone could fix everything.
You spelt 'charging at police while holding a knife with intent to inflict harm' wrong.
Nice headline. Yeah, all he was doing was minding his own business, holding a knife he was going to use to core an apple. JournalismIsDead
The committee to inadvertently reelect Trump strikes again
Why do we have to loot? I support peaceful protest, but not looting.
Amazing, since you have never called them by their real name ' Looters' . Good job, keep it up. Do some real reporting, maybe you will get more credits.

Democrat looters. Destroying great cities one by one. Vote Trump to end this crap. MAGA2020
Gee. I wonder why looters feel this is acceptable? 🤔
Those tazers just never seem to work for cops. Devices made in Jainah or what?....
“Looters” GFY
