It’s behind a paywall for me. I’m going to go out on a limb and suggest that calling the rioters “vermin” isn’t exactly going to calm the situation.
I find it hard to disagree when it appears to be teenagers burning and looting for the thrill of it.
So they are attempting to defend themselves against a well armed militarized police force. How dare they!
They wouldn't have to defend themselves if they'd stop looting and setting shit on fire.
You're the same kind of troglodyte that thinks this will accomplish something.
