One can even semi-understand the desire (though not the choice) to riot, given the usual wall of silence that goes up in such an egregious situation. Trouble was, tempers were already rubbed red hot by the demonstrably bogus situations of Trayvon and Ferguson. And they didn’t even bother picketing the police station where it happened, or the mayor’s office... they just smashed, burned, and looted. If you “riot” at EVERYTHING, then guess what, pace Dr. King, nobody bothers listening to that “voice” any more.
I can definitely understand people being mad.
I know I don’t want to think in my mind that I could leave my house on any given day, screw up somehow and end up on my way to jail, and receive devastating injuries during that trip that end my life.
I’ve messed up before and found myself on the way to jail a few times in my life, so that can happen.
One thing I would not do though is riot and terrorize and threaten and damage the property of people who were no way involved in any such thing.
I really do not have any sympathy to that at all.
Nonetheless though, I really want to see the autopsy report in this matter as soon as possible.
