Kooky_LukeyI saw someone post this article on fb the other day and it annoyed me.

The national guard didn't get called into Waco because of multiple reasons and none of them are because most of the bikers were white. It was because the bikers did not resist arrest and they did not start rioting and start setting fire to police vehicles etc... Then again these are just people on twitter, but it still reflects the stupid millennial thinking that we still live in 50s segregation.
This one really gets me...
"The rival gangs were not engaged in a demonstration or protest and they were predominantly white, which means that — despite the fact that dozens of people engaged in acts of obscene violence — they did not 'riot,' as far as much of the media is concerned. 'Riots' are reserved for communities of color in protest, whether they organize violently or not, and the 'thuggishness' of those involved is debatable. That doesn't seem to be the case in Texas."
No, you stupid fucking cunt. It's not being called a "riot" because they didn't destroy entire neighborhoods, countless vehicles, loot local businesses, set buildings on fire, and then cut the hoses of the firemen trying to put out the blaze. Maybe if you weren't such a dumb fucking bitch, and concentrated on getting a fucking education, you'd realize that the word "riot" is not an adequate description of the events in Tx. Hence why no one in the media is labeling it as such...
