Well,...to sum up.
*This* libertarian believe that looters deserve any misfortune that comes their way from anyone who decides to give it to them.
Riots aren't the time to attempt to push a political agenda which calls for limiting the power of the police.
Boston wasn't a riot.
Much the shame, IMHO *libertarian* mindset.
Looters aren't libertarians.

No. They are not. Neither are the police.

Like last night, it was mostly calm until one person threw a bottle at the police. Then they broke out the tear gas on a mostly peaceful crowd and that stirred things up -- then the police let the looters loot. The only businesses they've done anything to protect are the Walmarts, Targets, etc -- those get MRAPs and perimeters, while small businesses are on their own.
Reason interviewed a few people there and they said they supported the looters since the situation wouldn't have gotten any media attention otherwise.
Perhaps,but I believe a store owner has every right to blow the head off of anybody looting his store.
Not so much with a cop buying a doughnut
