Shocking on the twittersphere it's blowing up that white people poured tea out in the harbor and it was cool but yet black people are robbing Target and burning stuff down and they're considered animals and ghetto...
sigh.... god our education system has absolutely failed these people
Here are 2 examples:
" y'all love rebellions and revolutions until black people do it"
and a response to that tweet
" thry couldn't shut up about Arab Spring.. showed a million videos of protestors in HK, soiled themselves bc how eager they were to capture tea partiers and we want haircuts people... yet when black people have something to say, it's a problem"
here is another doozy
" because apparently we shouldn't have anything to rebel against.. we gotta remember this country gave us speech and rights and therefore we should be grateful... thats like my dad saying that i shouldnt be depressed cause I got food/ clothes a phone and other things "

Who runs the education system? Could it be the same people running these cities?

or some of the people rioting, at least at the "teacher runs the class" level

The rioters absolutely run the classroom in most instances.
I know this because a 70 year old woman that dedicated her life to public education and is still teaching in these shite holes tells me this.

If the kids today only had Saturday Morning cartoons and School house rock.

The "I'm a bill" episode would clear all this up.

The Boston Tea Party was an attack on tea that was nominally owned by the British government through the East India Company. They didn't attack private citizens and their property that night.
And before contrarians respond with examples of Patriots attacking those private citizens friendly to the Crown, there are always exceptions to every rule. By and large, the Sons of Liberty would go after the people they blamed for their problems - the government.

Some millennial thought that was a brilliant analogy.

You can't even have a discussion with people that stupid
All you can do is point and wonder if they're actually earthworms wearing human skin.

Exactly. They are trying to draw a false equivalence to rationalize the looting. Gotta problem with the cops? Take it out on local businesses. That'll show 'em.

Boston Massacre is a better analogy. It involved the authorities killing a black guy.

AutoZone and Target are infamous for holding the community down.

I believe the citizens of Boston voluntarily paid the cost of the tea a few days later. What they did not pay, and what they were protesting was the tax on the tea.

Yeah but the furniture barn is the worst

This is silly, what isn’t is that our founding fathers would be appalled st the level of oppression, policing, restricting of freedom and it’s worst form,violence, people of all races suffer from in the name of law and order.

you're exactly right...
the herd mentality of stupid is so overwhelming... the people replying to the tweets just get completely "owned" by white guilters that there is zero incentive to actually point out how wrong they are

Taxes on couches are oppressive to black people.
Free is better.
You didn't build that.

Can you imagine these looters and rioters trying to frame the Declaration of Independence, convene the Continental Congress and draft the Constitution of the United States of America?
Or even trying to identify any of these things?
