The rioting in Mpls shows the massive number of lumpenproletarians (underclass) that exists in that city, and in the nation. Burning down businesses and destroying the autos of persons who had and have nothing to do with police, or with the criminal acts of some police, is not a 'protest against the police'. Instead, it is evidence of the vicious and destructive mindset of the vast criminal underclass that exists in America.
Consider, reported homicides. Almost all are reported, the 'race' of the victim is usually recorded, and in most instances the 'race' of perpetrator is also reported by observers. What official statistics reveal is that 'Blacks' - with only around 13% of the national population - are responsible for the majority of homicides nationwide. 'Blacks' commit homicides at a rate of about 7 or 8 TIMES the rate of 'Whites', for example.
But the truth is even worse. A large segment of the 'Black' population is no more involved, or even less involved, in homicide than the nation as a whole, i.e., the national average: black professionals, well-off athletes, successful business people, honorably serving members of the military who may be 'Black', etc, are not the problem. Instead, it is the vast 'Black underclass' that is the murderous element, and their rate of murder may be 15 times the national average. This is an immensely destructive part of the population, with vicious values and evil impulses.
The 'Black' lumpenproletariat does not give a damn about 'Black' lives. The overwhelming majority of 'Blacks' are murdered by exactly these 'Blacks' themselves.
'Black' moral entrepreneurs use the excuse of criminal acts by cops in order to excuse riots and 'explain away' the much greater criminality of the 'Black' thug element. The evidence indicates that the cop in Mpls used excessive force to the point of causing death; manslaughter, for which he should be tried and punished. 'Black' leaders cried out to heaven.
But over the holiday weekend more than a half dozen 'Blacks' were murdered by other 'Blacks' in the city of Chicago alone. Not a peep from 'Black' leaders.
Of course, there is a 'White' underclass and a Hispanic' underclass as well as the 'Black' underclass - though the 'Black' thug element seems to be proportionately larger in the nation by far. Further, 'Black' leaders use thug violence as a means to put pressure on govt and business to push their own selfish interests. "If you don't want more cities to burn, provide my middle-class 'Black' daughter special rights to enter college, give her special funding, etc." The 'Black' middle-class uses the thug element of their 'race' as leverage. This is all phony BS. Jessie Jackson has no control over Chicago's 'Black' thugs, though he pretends that he does in order to fill his own coffers.
Where does the American underclass come from? How large is it? Will the current economic crisis cause it to explode in size? Like ancient Rome, which rotted from the inside due to the corruption of its mobs, so America is rotting from the inside. How can the nation meet the challenge of fascist China when its own internal thug-element is tearing the home base apart?
That police commit 'war crimes' at times is only to be expected in such a violent, on-going 'dirty war' against such a dangerous internal enemy. There is probably no solution.
