Aftermath: After the cameras go away, the captains and the kings depart, and the news anchors go back to their lying ways in New York City, you still get to sit in the rubble and take a bus two miles for a quart of milk.

But, hey, you've made your gripes known.... enjoy!

Many of Martin Luther King's more militant followers advocated for violent insurrection rather than peaceful demonstrations.
He told them violence was a quick way to understand what the word "minority" actually means.

There is a semi load of reality coming down the interstate with the brakes burnt out. When it arrives, it will spread that good cheese allllll over the landscape so that everyone gets a good dose of reality.

They're not going to like it.

I'm assuming arson is a crime in Missouri, and by now at least a few people should be headed for the penitentiary. I saw video from the riots of a man inside a store lighting a display on fire. Just stood there, calmly and patiently waiting for the stuff to ignite. Surely the state attorney general and the fire marshal aren't on the take as the Governor is/was?

There will be no judicial retribution, no charges brought except a few involving some creeps that everybody wants thrown under the bus, token guilty.
Federal money will be funneled in for all the local pols to get a hunk of the pie; new tenement housing will be built with more gravy for local pols and construction outfits.
Think: Cabrini Green in Chicago. Planned obsolescence. What the residents don't wreck the government will.
