    It is sort of appropriate for people to loot as a memorial to the dead thief.

    Lol, streamer legitly thinks it was a police conspiracy to steal his streaming phone. I wonder if he'll report it stolen.

    There's plenty of proof of unfair treatment by cops against african americans, just search Google. Either way, if you can spend some time looking up proof that white people DON'T get privileged treatment by cops then I would love to take an honest look at it.

    You made the claim that defies logic. If you can't provide proof give some logic other than white privilege.

    That takes stones to accuse the police of stealing his phone. Wow.

    How does my claim defy logic anymore than saying that blacks are treated equally in the justice system?

    Racism is a proven fact and has existed for centuries. If anything, my claim is closer to reality than this perfect utopian justice system.

    Thinking that the system is out to get one race in particular just isn't realistic. A lot of people whine and blame others when they screw up and have to face consequences, but it's not the system's fault, it's their fault.

    You claimed stats don't back this up and then didn't provide any of these stats. This statement is very logical, your claim isn't.

    Do you just believe it because racism? I don't find that logical either.

    The arsonists aren't too far behind. Only a psychopath would go around and torch buildings like that. Lots of people took pride to build those buildings/businesses and then some degenerate comes and destroys it.

    Racism exists, the US Government has engaged in racist practices for most of its existence (slavery, segregation, Jim Crow laws, redlining). Tell me, why do you think the "system" is perfectly equal now?

    That's a different argument and that isn't what you said. You said:

    Prove what you said.

    That's pathetic. Even the media that drives this story are fair game. You would think Obama's army would protect them and not throw things at them.

    I said I THINK that it is the case that a black person attacking an officer would be more likely to get shot. It would make sense based on other mistreatment of blacks or privileged treatment of whites systematically in America.
