WHERE THEY ARRESTED FOR DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY?

Go pull down a statue of MLK and see if its about race.....

Pulling down a statue is not a protest, its destruction of public property, pure and simple. It is against the law, and should be prosecuted. But that's not going to happen.

It is on video and the persons committing the CRIME are easily identified....

Maybe some good ole boys will track them down and educate them.

here's the thing...we like to kid ourselves that tearing down these statutes (or getting rid of that plaque downtown) will somehow act like a "release valve". But it won't. Think about your own life. If your boss is a jerk, you may think that daydreaming of punching him in the face somehow is blowing off steam. But what you are really doing is amping yourself up to do it- which is probably not a good thing to do. What I fear is that these kids, having given into their rage, will now need to seek out more place to vent rage.

It's always one way with these people - the proof is right there yet charging them would be called racist!

This is the crap Obama built!

Wow, you're really calling for violence for pulling down a statue?

Yep. You can bet a white man would catch a beating for knocking down a MLK statue.

Its not about a statue, its about ignorance of what the Confederacy stood for and an attempt of an excuse to complain and throw blame. Put an end to the racial excuse to break the law and offend others...before the violence turns on you.

Arrest them - all of them ! This is a nation of laws and we need to follow them. Protest peacefully - or that right will be taken away. Will someone please uphold the laws of our country !!

As a black woman im disgusted. Making a mockery of what that black fist stood for me and my ancestors. It was meant to represent pride and solidarity. This is isnt pride & It darn sure wasnt good sense tearing down a statue that serves as a story and lesson to even their kids, nevertheless in a park they probably dnt even patronize. These young kids get on my nerves. They should be punished. Should been somewhere making sure parks in their neighborhoods get a statue.

next time, I hope the statue lands on them.
This is why white nationalist are growing their numbers. The MSM glorifies these people and makes it seem like what they are doing is right.
They're thugs and criminals and are doing molicioaus destruction of property, which in this case, since it's over the dollar limit, happens to be a felony.
Find them and convict them. Then glue their finger into a fist so they have to keep them that way.

Thank you 12:34. Maybe some of your common sense will rub off on the local racists representing both points of view.

Lincoln messed up
After the civil war he should have returned all the slaves
(Blacks) to Africa .....instead of leaving them all here to Hate on the Whites Forever.......... FACT

Also there were Blacks who sold their own into slavery and even today in Africa this goes on (don't blame the whites)

Arrest, try, punish. Destruction of public property. No defense for the actions. Taliban and ISIS approach is not acceptable.

Black pride = good, white pride = nazi. It's a full scale attack on whiteness that started 8 years ago or so, particularly white men. The media is not only complicit, they are the orchestrators of it. Of course there is going to be a push back which is what we are seeing now. Only going to get worse from here.

Yeah, but so many whites are communists, socialists, leftists, and finally Democrats who pander to this for votes.

I hope these kids understand facial recognition and it can lead to their arrest and possible prosecution. They're in for a shocker as I hear criminal charges are being sought and warrants have been issued for anyone involved in this malicious destruction of property.
