[QUOTE=BackSapper;46568234]So this happened: [img]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B3QziOmCEAAo-Bi.jpg:large[/img] I can understand the reasoning to keep open and provide refreshments for protesters, but you gotta know that there would be a riot no matter what.[/QUOTE] i'm not sure if i understand the reasoning to provide alcoholic refreshments in this kind of situation
[QUOTE=wulfe8857;46568236]So a black guy got killed by a white police officer for no given reason and when he was put in front of a grand jury they decided not to send him to trial. This was a good example of the systematic racism in America. Now, there are violent, fire-filled protests in Ferguson over this. This defeats the whole example thing I mentioned. This is basically what I got from Wikipedia and this thread. Yes?[/QUOTE] No. It was decided there wasn't enough evidence to convict him of the charges.
[QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;46568230]Shooting fucking firefighters? What kind of people would do that?[/QUOTE] if people think they have absolutely nothing to lose then they probably won't discriminate what they point the business end of their guns at. it's shitty and terrifying
[QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;46568230]Shooting fucking firefighters? What kind of people would do that?[/QUOTE] Peaceful protesters ofc
[QUOTE=ilikecorn;46568209]No but people can and will discount the protesters message. You can scream "INEQUALITY, RACISM" all day long, but you don't do yourself any good when you start being idiots and rioting.[/QUOTE] Define "you," in this situation. The looters? They're pieces of shit, nobody's debating that. They're taking advantage of a situation and very much polluting the invitation for racial discourse. There's no question about that. But you're not talking about the looters, you're using "you" to refer to "black people." You're generalizing the entire black community as if they're a single acting force. They aren't. There are some genuine asswipes taking advantage, and there's a huge community all across the US who sympathizes with and share experiences with the "INEQUALITY, RACISM" that they're complaining about. Make a distinction between people who actually care about the issues and people who are there to burn stuff. There is no monolithic black force - everyone is acting as an individual, and it's incredibly important that you don't let the actions of a bunch of dickwads discount the entire point of the protests and the unrest.

I wonder how much money CNN is going to make from this.
FOX2 just said that they are heading towards South Grand, that's where one of my best friends works. Thankfully she is off today and safe.

[QUOTE=Lachz0r;46568240]i'm not sure if i understand the reasoning to provide alcoholic refreshments in this kind of situation[/QUOTE] By my understanding; it is legal to sell liquor outside of a liquor store in America. A lot of corner stores carry liquor because it has a high profit margin and can bring add-on business. The intent was probably not to serve alcohol that night.

You know justice will be served to those people who are abusing this situation and causing all this needless damage. It comes through the fact that they will always stay in their lowly station in life because they have no respect for their community or themselves, and thus no one will truly care about their welfare or help to elevate their position in life. Respect yourself and your community and you will thrive, and you can get the change you want to see to happen.

But generally yes, a lot of places that sell food or drinks also are able to - and often do - sell alcohol. Gas stations/convenience stores and grocery stores are two good examples. That store in particular was probably not just a liquor store and was also selling normal convenience store stuff like snacks, soda, maybe even minor stuff like bread and sandwich meat.
