People start rioting and 36 police officers are injured. Another summer of discontent.

Ralph Wiggum:
I truly hope this doesn't turn into Dallas three summers ago.

SVPete:
The deceased committed felonies in MI, crossed the border into TN, tried to kill Federal Marshals several times, and when finally stopped, had gun in hand when he got out of his car. IMO, every A-hole who rioted in support of him deserves his prison sentence for his multiple attempts at murder.

You misunderstand the purpose of this riot. It wasn't about injustice, it was about free stuff and destruction.
