COMMUNITY Social Justice Thread: R.I.P. George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor & now Tyre Nichols

40 million unemployed during the summertime with warmer weather and nothing but time on their hands.

So 3 months of rioting and looting. This is LA Riots on steroids.

When you put it like that, this unemployment issue will last at least a few more months. So, that is very telling on how long this chaotic situation may last.

I still dont see it lasting much longer at this degree. A few more days probably before shit calms down.

DC is getting hot.

Cops came through in Santa Monica to sweep up looters

This shit isn't really anything like the Riots though. I literally had black smoke all around me in the sky during it as a kid. That's how many fires there were. You got mostly peaceful protests here, and some outsiders coming through starting shit.

Local shoe store being smart by closing and emptying their stores.

Do you know the amount of black businesses that never recovered from the LA riots in your area? What was the rebuilding process like from black businesses.

Crazy part is if it leads to dictator trump.

Trump would be 100% down with that. Then pass down power to Donnie jr when he dies.

We didn't have too many black businesse back then. Banks wouldn't give us loans to even finance one. Was mostly Korean and mom & pop places. South LA was literred with burned down buildings for over a deacde, was part of our landscape for along time. Businesses didn't come back until the mid-00s, and really it's only been the last 5 years with gentrification that my old area really fully came back.

It's hard to explain to people, because it's weird seeing your city burning and the aftermath. It's easy to get hyped up now, but when everything close to you is fucked up, it hits home. This time aorund I'm seeing places like Fairfax where there are tons of Ethipian immigrants shops,a nd it was gutted. No rhyme or reason. People just don't care it seems. Whole thing from our justice system, to this shit is depressing as hell. I don't know anymore
