Stand Back and Stand By

What?

The old "kill two birds with one stone". One guy would be lynched, the other would be the patsy.

The movie "The Hurricane" a Denzel Washington movie portrays how common it was to use blacks as patsies for crimes committed. The old "round up the usual suspects" in Casablanca.

Legalized brutal treatment of minorities was not addressed until the 1960s.

Most of the people doing the rioting are not minorities. Perhaps you haven't noticed but the vast majority of Antifa and Black Bloc are white folk. Care to try again? This time try addressing what I actually said.

I have noticed that many of the protestors were white folks, but you are saying that most of the rioters are as well? Is that based on photographic evidence? Who has been arrested? How is that determined?

Just an observation where I live in the NorthWest. Most of the rioting takes place after Antifa or Black Bloc shows up and they seem to be mostly white.

If we are going on observations I noticed that everyone shot by the militia man was a felon. It seems to me the looters are mostly felons taking advantage of the protests. But that is based on about 4 people I have observed that were rioting and/or looting. Makes sense since looting and rioting is a felony.

What are you even on about? I've never said the American flag is racist, there is no incremental reasoning. The typically used "confederate flag" has always been racist, right from the start. That isn't the American flag, it is a battle flag of a bunch of American traitors.

You said,

The stars and bars was incorporated into hate groups later on as a banner, and then pushed into southern culture to solidify white supremacy.

The stars and bars are now on the American flag. I simply predicted that we're going to hear that the American flag is racist as well because of the similarity. The same type of reasoning was used to change the flags of states that incorporated the Confederate battle flag as a small part of their own flag.

Despite how it reads, I can only guess that this post was indented to make some sort of point.

Even if it doesn't, it goes well with the post it was in response to.

Are you kidding me??? You think rioting and looting was legalized in the 1950's? Be serious!
Today in my city we constantly have rioting and looting because they know if they get arrested the city attorney will not bring charges; just let them go. This was not the case a year ago. A year ago they knew there would be consequences for such actions.

The cities attorneys office has brought multiple cases against rioters. This has been in the Seattle Times, it is not secret knowledge. If you point rests on falsehoods then it seems a poor point.

I think he was talking about this one.

The first official national flag of the Confederacy, often called the Stars and Bars...

Yeah when they do something drastic like wack a cop upside the head with a baseball bat, or barricade the door to the Police station shut and attempt to set the department on fire while the cops are still inside, those actions lead to cases, but when you consider the typical rioting that has been going on, very few charges have been brought in proportion to the crimes committed.

Show me all your evidence that crimes are not being prosecuted that could be successfully litigated.

Yeah, about what I expected. More nothing.

The stars and bars were on the US flag first.

the US flag does not feature any racist connotations in and of itself. It was not a nation founded for the explicit purpose of owning certain races of humans for property like the Confederacy was.

Thank you. So you believe that people have no qualms about rioting a looting because a "half a dozen assaults, theft, reckless endangerment and attempted property damage." were set to be referred to alternative remediation?

Of course! That's what I was responding to.

Have you read in the article about what that "alternative remediation" is? It's a group that was actually involved in the criminal behavior in the first place. No different than terrorists being handed back to their own trainers to get more training.

"The DA's office has received 37 misdemeanor cases so far from the latest civil unrest in Seattle. Many are for obstructing police, but the list includes half a dozen assaults, theft, reckless endangerment and attempted property damage. Holmes said he hopes to refer these protesters to “Choose 180, a restorative justice program with a proven track record.”

However, Choose 180 is one of the groups currently occupying the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest (CHOP) and negotiating with the city for terms including barriers to extend the occupation."
