America Burning

Rioting and looting by Antifa/BlackLivesMatter spread across American cities last night, including:

  • Minneapolis/St. Paul, where over 150 buildings have been burned, looted or damaged. Including twin science fiction and mystery specialty stores Uncle Hugos and Uncle Edgar’s:

    (There’s now a GoFundMe site set up.)

  • In Atlanta, the CNN building was heavily vandalized. Other businesses were vandalized and looted, police cars were set on fire and the College Football Hall of Fame looted. Rapper Killer Mike has some thoughts:

    As does Cernovich:

  • Rioters shot and killed a Federal Protective Service officer in Oakland, California.
  • More riots in Antifa Ground Zero in Portland:

  • Dallas wasn’t spared, with downtown and the club-filled Deep Ellum area attacked, at least one police car burned.
  • In Houston, damage appeared to be less severe, possibly because 200 people were arrested for trying to block a roadway. Some broken glass, but I’m not seeing reports of arson. As always, judiciously applied lawful force tends to nip rioting in the bud.
  • Rioters tried to rush a police station in Brooklyn.
  • Don’t believe for a second the laughable “white supremacists did this” talking point the left is trying to foist on the public:

    The question remains: What do hard-left and antifa/#BlackLivesMatters backers like George Soros hope to gain through backing such riots?

    I’ll try to examine possible answers to that question tomorrow.
