The current looting in Baltimore of the CVS Pharmacy which is occuring at this moment is inexcusable.

If you shoot to kill the looters then we are just as bad as them.
The leadership of the black organizations should be put in jail not the looters,I swear the leaders encourages this type of behavior.
No, Lon, they will not shoot at all. They will stand around and watch just like the National Guard did at Ferguson. It is racist to shoot them. You just stand back and hope you do not get hurt or killed until they decide to quit or leave.

Looting & Burning a CVS Pharmacy and stealing drugs is a adult criminal activity and should be dealt with harshly and yes shooting them will get the message across to some of the so called high school kids. The National Guard has now been called in and do you think they will not shoot to kill if they are attacked as the police were?
Oh Yeah..... shooting and killing a bunch of high school kids is REALLY going to get a message across alright.. But it's not going to be the message you hope it will be. I think the National Guard better NOT start killing these kids..
Lon, "Shooting them will get the message across?" What message? That their lives are considered worthless by the police? Isn't the outrage about that what got this thing started in the first place?
Of course, looting is not "excusable." But there's a huge area between excusing something and shooting a bunch of misguided kids.
It's racist to shoot black people? Really? Have you paid attention to the news? That's not the prevailing theory, and even if it was it hasn't stopped the shootings. And the National Guard did at lot more than stand and watch at Kent State. They killed unarmed people.
I am so sick of (some) people saying/acting like they don’t know what racism is. The word is in the dictionary…..it’s not that complicated. Look it up.nthego:
That was on Monday, May 4, 1970! That was 45 years ago. I do not understand when we are discussing things that are happening right now, people have a tendency to bring up things that happened long ago. Maybe you are too young to realize how much our country has changed in those 45 years. What does Kent State have to do with what is happening today in Baltimore?
PROTESTING is not a Criminal Activity but RIOTING and particularly LOOTING is, especially when it involves burning of property, bodily harm to police and firemen. We have some that say Oh Well they are young and don't make good choices, they are poor, they come from single parent situation etc. etc. Gimme a Break will ya. At what point do you accept responsibilty for your actions and pay the consequences?
