ok im going to spell this out for you

you continued to make the claim that the protesters and cops are equally at fault because of looters and because you cannot blame the whole police force for the actions of the higher ups. i think that's stupid because if you look at my sources its clear that the looters are such a small minority and so few are from ferguson that its illogical to use them to make claims like that, and on the flip side regardless of if the cops made the decisions or not they are still partaking in the violent abuse and silencing of the whole protest, and that includes every cop on the police force. i am talking in terms of the police being in charge of the situation because for the large majority of this event they have been, im aware the national guard have stepped in and was before you said so (whether that's a good thing or not is a different story)

you do not need to directly state you're defending the cops actions when you're directly linking to multiple sources doing just that, any rational person would already assume that. if you're not, great, you're a logical sympathetic person; do not pretend that im pulling claims like that out of thin air when that's what anyone would assume given the situation. the imbalances in wealth throughout the community are directly linked to racism and if you don't understand the intersectionality between racism, classism and class warfare you shouldn't be speaking on this issue

im gonna leave this thread again unless anyone can actually bring up any new points because currently this isn't going much of anywhere
