I was going to post this: Let me see if I have it right, a government official (however insignifigant - purchased voter) shoots a criminal, is convicted and riots ensue after justice is served? Sounds like liberal-land to me. Sounds like CW 2 is getting closer.

but read futther. The shooter drew what he thought was his taser and fired but it was a pistol. He was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter but that wasn't enough for the racist negroes, they just saw that a black man was killed my a white man so it's automatically capital murder. Man, it's heating up. Note to self, armor up, they're coming after me 'cause I'm white.

Since the food stores left due to theft, now they are creating a shoe desert for themselves. What will Michelle do?

"Oakland police say people have broken into an athletic store near the city's downtown as hundreds of people protest the verdict in the case of a former transit officer."

In light of the verdict, The People are entitled to free Nikes... and a basketball. Is there malt liquor in there?

An athletic store are the key words here. Another excuse to steal?

I'm guessing they were getting to all of the LeBron James' Cavalier jerseys ahead of the 90% off sale, which starts tomorrow.

“Its the SEIU thugs that are behind all the looting and destruction. They were bused to the “protest” from their headquarters at 3rd and Myrtle.”

Are you getting that from a news feed? You seem to know the area. Are you saying, seriously, the sneaker store riot was perpetrated by SEIU rent-a-mob bussed in from 3rd and Myrtle? SEIU lOCAL 1021 at 111 Myrtle st, Oakland Ca. (in the Acorn Industrial neighborhood), that SEIU?

That's not very far for walking. But they probably wanted their bus drivers to get overtime pay.

When I was in a bank on Saturday there was an older black man in line ahead of me, talking to a teller (also black). He was very angry that the judge had decided to throw out the charge of murder in the first degree. "I don't care what some man in robes decides," the old man said. He wanted the charge to be Murder One. He was very angry.

IMHO, the is the most iconic picture from the whole Katrina media episode. Why has there never been an interview or A&E Biography on Looter Guy?

You’d think these merchants would have invested a few hundred dollars in shotguns and ammo.

I don’t care a whit about the color of the rioters. To me, they should all be mowed down. A demonstration is one thing, a riot with break ins, fires and the like is anarchy and deserves a response. Since Oakland is on the bay, fire away and plow them into the bay.

That photo will, forever, remain a “classic!”

I have to wonder how that guy feels being the Lee Paige of looting. That is, if he even knows about his status.

There is a secure fenced parking lot at their office that they utilize to protect their own vehicles from the consequences of their provocative activities.

Nothing in leftist politics is spontaneous, nor left to chance. Many here refuse to come to grips with this fact.

What, to get a guaranteed trip to a penitentiary for protecting their own property? This is Alameda County we’re talking about. (Home of Don Perata)
