This. Bust out the horses and people will GTFO. See the Merritt Landry case. White homeowner got no charges after shooting an unarmed 15 year old black kid on the wrong side of his fence in the Marigny. There were marches here and there, but no riots.
Yep. Also no riots when those tPOS bouncers at Razzoo's murdered a black college student.

And none of those incidents caused anything close to what so many other cities have had to endure.

True in the cities or heavily populated areas. False in most small rural towns. I grew up in a small town and I'll bet 95% of the business owners are white, racist, and own several fire arms. If it is in fact legal (poster stated earlier that it is) to shoot someone damaging or threatening your property than I can guarantee the lead would fly!

Not at all. But stupidly defend away.

Also, NOPD blocked 35 "protestors" from trying to get on the I-10 bridge
Those protesters were a bunch of hipsters, government baby mommas and dead beat daddies... Rebels without a clue...

Locked Cocked and ready to Rock! Wish a Mother Fkr would. Rioter mentality know to stick to there side of town. Stepping out of bounds will get that head busted...they know to travel in packs and stay in the home range. Primal instinct kicks in with these situations and they will not stray much
