Das rite!
What whites don’t understand because they’re too stupid and evil is that black people have to loot because of slavery and microaggressions.
That’s why we shouldn’t call it looting.
It’s really reparations for all of the abuses that blacks have suffered.

The latest string of smash-and-grab attacks on high-end stores in California should not be called looting as that would be racist, two criminal justice experts told the media and police.
The lecture on linguistics came after the San Francisco Bay area police departments had described a series of brazen thefts at luxury retail outlets over the weekend as looting. Lorenzo Boyd, a professor of criminal justice and community policing at the University of New Haven, told ABC7 news channel on Tuesday that the term has strong racial connotations and is typically used when “people of color or urban dwellers are doing something.” Boyd, a former deputy sheriff in Boston, went on to claim that when people of different ethnicity “do the exact same thing,” such criminal acts are rarely called looting.
Martin Reynolds, co-executive director of the Robert C. Maynard Institute of Journalism Education, concurred, saying that it “seems like it’s an organized smash-and-grab robbery. This doesn’t seem like looting.”
Both experts concluded that the media ought to be careful in their choice of words, as “people draw their own conclusions, if the terminologies that you use are tethered to people’s understanding of how they have been used in the past,” Reynolds opined. The two experts surmised that some outlets had chosen the word ‘looting’ intentionally, in a bid to link the crime spree to the Kyle Rittenhouse trial.
Boyd and Reynolds’ advice caught flak online, with many conservatives on social media saying that the experts’ comments were nothing but political correctness gone mad or a diversionary tactic intended to shift the focus away from the actual crime problem.

It’s looting. Just like there were riots in Kenosha, not just protests. https://t.co/trvUHxsCHU pic.twitter.com/nmdUTg6IXT

Over the weekend, Southern California saw multiple ‘smash-and-grab’ attacks on luxury stores as well as at least one pharmacy, where groups totaling as many as 50 criminals, brazenly snatched garments, jewelry and other goods, and then fled the scene in cars. It even came to physical violence when dozens stormed a Nordstrom store on Saturday night, kicking and punching two employees and pepper-spraying another one.
Some have suggested the criminals are knowingly taking advantage of California’s law that took effect in 2014 and which stipulates that an individual caught shoplifting goods that are worth less than $950 in total will get away with a misdemeanor charge. Critics say this lenient approach only serves to bolster thieves.
California Governor Gavin Newsom vowed on Monday to come down hard on the robbers, adding that he wants “people prosecuted and we want people to feel safe.”
If he wanted that, then why did he create the situation in the first place?
One of many mysteries.
One thing that is not a mystery is this: blacks did not choose to come to America.
They were brought here as slaves.
If they’d been allowed to remain in their homeland, they’d be living in a paradise, free of racism.
Wait, no – that’s not actually Africa. That’s from a movie.
Here’s the paradise they’d be living in.
It was so very evil of whites to remove them from this dreamland of joyful happiness.
