These guys Looters
They are all over the news here in the US.
It will come to the UK, just like BLM riots did last summer.
Sloane Street will get hit someday soon.
LOL. We live in different worlds.
I don't live on Sloane street. Typical crimewave where I live is when someone lets her dog crap on the sidewalk and doesn't pick it ALL up. BLM riots came here? I must have been in my bunker. Never heard a thing. I recall there was a shouty lady panic buying toilet rolls once in 2020. $;o)

You are kidding about not hearing about BLM riots in London, right?

Seriously OD, are you really this naive about what happens in your own country?

The righties tend to get angry (or angrier than usual) when you point out that the economy is doing great, the shelves aren’t empty, or the world hasn’t devolved into a violent hellscape filled with roving gangs of looters.

Their news echochamber tells them differently.

Actually its mostly the facts that prove out the narrative.
Do we have to go back to the supply chain crisis "easing" example so soon.
You claim the supply chain is getting better while the ships parked outside LA/Long Beach harbor are at an all time high.
AMS, you're embarrassing your community. You and Jussie, just two peas in a pod.
You always get caught in your web of misinformation and then you never have a response.
Pathetic.

ROFLMAO..
You call those riots? Looks like a typical Friday night high spirits in any Metropolis. Where'.s the guns, Where's the burned out shops, Where's the water cannons.

There were a few minor skirmishes where police had to use batons. Boo Hoo. Wherever you get protests involving many tens of thousands of passionate protesters, you will get the odd bit of trouble. No burned out shops. No gunfire, I don't think any deaths. A few dozen minor injuries and a few dozen arrests. Here. I'll help you.

"Such claims are false. Incidents in which there was protester violence or property destruction should be regarded as exceptional – and not representative of the uprising as a whole.

In many instances, police reportedly began or escalated the violence, but some observers nevertheless blame the protesters.

The claim that the protests are violent – even when the police started the violence – can help local, state and federal forces justify intentionally beating, gassing or kettling the people marching, or reinforces politicians’ calls for ‘law and order’.

After having collected and analysed data from 7,305 events, researchers found that 96.3% of protests involved no damage to property or injuries to police officers. In 97.7% of cases, no injuries were reported among protesters, bystanders or police officers."

Minor skirmish hits the news.

Scientists May Have Discovered Why COVID Hits Fat People Harder

"75% of Covid deaths to date (unvaxxed and vaxxed) in the United States are retirement age or older, with another 18% between the ages of 50 and 64-years-old. So the vast majority of US Covid deaths are in older Americans, 73% or so of whom are overweight or obese."

"According to Johns Hopkins professor of cardiology, Dr. David Kass, a man whose ideal weight is 170 lbs, yet who weighs 250 lbs, is carrying a substantial amount of fat in which the virus can 'hang out' - where it can then replicate and trigger a 'destructive immune system response."

"The finding is particularly relevant to the United States, which has one of the highest rates of obesity in the world. Most American adults are overweight, and 42 percent have obesity. Black, Hispanic, Native American and Alaska Native people in the U.S. have higher obesity rates than white adults and Asian Americans; they have also been disproportionately affected by the pandemic, with death rates roughly double those of white Americans". -NY Times

Much different here, where the democrats determined to destroy the economy and unseat Trump, used their army of winged monkeys to wage an eighteen month long civil war and race war leading up to the election.

12,045 incidents of civil unrest between May and September alone.

633 riots. 34 dead. Up to $2 billion in damages.

Forty-six police officers murdered in 2020.

Thousands arrested and freed without charges by democrat District Attorneys who refused to prosecute.

The war continues. Thirty-seven police officers murdered in the first five months of 2021.

The economy is doing great
I know
My level of retirement comfort is depending on the market
This is a very safe country
I've been traveling all over the country unarmed and venturing deep into urban areas
I was all over downtown Portland and could not find crime
