I'm amazed that Ds think riots, arson, looting and increased violent crime are OK, but for some reason the Ds think that if someone shouting a BLM slogan smashes and window and steals a TV and then sets the store on fire then "racial reckoning" is going on........to me it just looks like rampant criminality.
Racial reckoning or rampant theft and criminality? Other then the BLM slogans, is there a difference?
Cheers!

I have been saying, since the 80’s, that we are creating a bifurcated society, and that is going to be a big problem, and here we are. There are always a lot of ways to view a problem, each with a degree of validity.
My personal hobby horse is that it is a failure of the education system. I count at least six layers of segregation.
White flight
Religious schools (catholic, jewish, baptist, etc.
Private schools for the well heeled
Magnate schools to promote racial equality, segregate the smart kids
Charter schools for kids with an advocate
And then public schools for the dregs and unfortunates
And thats just in the cities.
More recently I have pondered the possibility we are creating a caste system.
