Seattle Mayor Blames ‘White Men’ For ‘Much Of The Violence And Destruction’ At Riots

Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan asserted Sunday night that “white men” are responsible for much of the widespread destruction across the country during protests against the death of George Floyd, a black man who died after an officer kneeled on his neck for several minutes.

She said,,I want to acknowledge that much of the violence and destruction, both here in Seattle and across the country, has been instigated and perpetuated by white men,” she wrote Sunday night on Twitter, adding that they “experience the height of privilege and are co-opting peaceful demonstrations.”

She's right -- his name is George Soros.

A bunch of white guys seem to be calling for busting protester heads until they call it quits so maybe she has a point?

What bunch? please explain..

Don't ask me to make your media choice for you, OK?

[Roadkingtrax]

Protesters no.

Rioters and Looters; Open Season. No bag limit.

Yeah it's that simple, because the two groups are never interspersed and there's never smoke from tear gas or crap burning to create a fog of confusion. And it never goes downhill when the police use area fire. Maybe we can get some Iranians to come over and show us what works for them, huh?

Well Ray some here, and Trump.

Why do I have to explain everything?

Eventually the riots lose steam, unless....there is killing, then they pick up steam. The insurance companies did a great business for a couple months there, they can help rebuild now. Plus jobs in that too. A short run focus on property regardless of lives lost is not the path to a successful end result.

Again..I must be pretty dumb as I can't figure out how your posts relates to my BSing remark...Probably my fault ...

The ins. cos. won't be paying for rebuilding--ALL their policy holders will. There have been no lives lost, unfortunately, but if there were that would be a very successful end result, because dead rioters create no further mayhem.

This kind of reactionary thinking is very much part of the ongoing cycle of violence and escalation.

How do you know? The cycle is "ongoing" for the very good reason that the looters & rioters KNOW the vast majority can get away with it scot-free! That wouldn't be the case if I were in charge, in which case the "cycle" would come to an abrupt end; even rubber bullets (not my first choice) would make the looters decide the stolen wide-screen wasn't worth the risk. And arsonists--can even you object to the killing of them?

[togor]

CH what's the end game you're aiming for? Where you want things to end up governs your tactics as to how to get there. The Iranians quell the protests, using killing and mass incarceration as necessary, but beneath it all the people seethe. Is that your end game?

I think she is correct to say white people are responsible for the riots but she might mean in Seattle. The beauty of the internet and social media is one can draw your own conclusion by doing your own research. The news coverage is showing a lot of younger white people dressed in the standard Antifa garb marching. One reporter even mentioned that the crowd isn't very diverse as Seattle isn't a diverse community and she was an Asian American. I didn't see one African American is the crowds. Seattle has a past history of letting Antifa type protestors get away with ripping stuff up so if Seattle has a problem with Chaos they need to look at the usual offenders.
