I thought it would just be an inflammatory headline with some legal or police expert saying something reasonable about technicalities. BUT THEN...

Race and Social Justice Reporter Julian Glover is here to give us some context of looting.

The penal code defines looting as "theft or burglary...during a 'state of emergency', 'local emergency', or 'evacuation order' resulting from an earthquake, fire, flood, riot or other natural or manmade disaster."

To some, the distinction may be small, but Lorenzo Boyd, PhD, Professor of Criminal Justice & Community Policing at the University of New Haven, and a retired veteran police officer, emphasized that words matter.

"Looting is a term that we typically use when people of color or urban dwellers are doing something. We tend not to use that term for other people when they do the exact same thing," said Boyd.

Bay Area r-slurs deserve this.

The decision not to prosecute or even interfere with retail theft is a man made disaster.

Try that in a Chinese shop or even a bodega and the owner is going to bust you up so bad.

In China they literally publicly strip and beat shoplifters. You can see the videos on youtube

I looked and all of the shoplifters being beaten were men. Do you know if any of the videos featured female-shoplifters being beaten? Preferably by a female-shopkeeper.

Kinda assuming there, totally not racist though.

I'd happily call members of other races looters, but I'm kinda having a difficult time coming up with examples...

Like, I'm not even trying to be racist here. Are there any examples of other races participating in this sort of behavior?

Looters are black. This is not a racist statement. Black people actively loot stores. They go in, during emergencies or evacuation orders, and take things that do not belong to them. Black people do not follow the law or pay for the goods they receive when there is a state of emergency.

Again, this statement is 100% woke and not racist. I am only agreeing with what the good professor Boyd said. I am extremely progressive.

words matter! unless they are words like "man" or "woman", then it's not so clear.

Felt like this was the worst part of the article though -

"These types of massive, organized smash and grabs were happening before the Rittenhouse situation, because it happens cyclically," said Boyd. "It's a false equivalency. It's people trying to politicize crime."

"Yeah, it's actually a normal thing around here for entire stores to be raided and cleaned out. Just happens, kind of seasonally." Either they're admitting their city is on the way to being some Escape from San Francisco shit, or they'd prefer people to think that over whatever race impropriety they're trying to avoid.

Yikes sweaty. It doesn't count as looting when People of Melanin steal things, because looting is when yt does it. Literally looting is Theft + grafted Yakubian DNA, which is antimelanated, means only whitey can commit looting. πŸ’…

Repeat: Only YT PPL can commit "looting" BY DEFINITON
