I didn’t expect anything in Nola. Kind of surprised that the other two you listed have been somewhat calm

I'm all for these peaceful protests and making a statement about topics people are passionate about. I also despise how hate groups intertwine into these events and ruin it for everyone else.

Obviously, white supremacists are too scared to go in to such locales.

Nola is interesting they destroy the city all day but when it comes to stupid protest they actually usually behave and go on about the day.

Hard to rob tourists if everyone is too scared to go and all the cool shite has been looted. Smart move.

Memphis hasn’t hard core rioted since MLK got shot, and he was shot in Memphis so I mean what can you do

A common joke around here is everyone is too lazy to riot

My personal theory is the police force is heavily black and black cops are bad motherfrickers who do not tolerate bullshite, especially from their black brethren. That shite gets nipped in the bud with the quickness with cracked skulls and no noteworthy story.

JPD has had a black police chief since early 90s. Force has been majority black for quite some time.

Think of what cities have the most baws armed at all times, in our cars and in our homes and business. Southern cities, they know this.

Surprised and disappointed that Birmingham gave in to this foolishness. It really damaged tis brand last night, and all the progress it made revitalizing downtown may have been lost.
