Just because a flash Mob is made up of a single race it does not mean they are racially motivated. That is that same as seeing a group of white people holding Anti-Obama signs and claiming they are racist, because they are all white.

Good to see that you equate free speech to vandalism, theft and violence.

Nice try. My argument had nothing to do with that. It had to do with that fact that you think a group composed of a single race must have racial motivation.

what does that even mean ? racially 'motivated' ? O.K., so it wasn't motivated by race, but it was participated BY one race, and that sort of activity is tolerated by one race...

Say 'culture', if it makes you feel any better, but how ever you label it, you can't deny the make up of WHO is doing the activity.


Well, maybe YOU can.

Really it is tolerated by a race? So Black people tolerate Flash Mobs? No Black person speaks out against them?

Culture is the correct word. Cultrue and Race are not the same things. Flash Mobs are a culture of violence, rebellion and group mentality. That culture does seem to be centered within the Black community. It is not the entire Black community.

I seem to recall the London riots were perpetrated by a number of races. There was fairly universal denouncement of all of it, by members of the same races that were participating in it. There were also members of who approved.

It's never all or none.

Agreed. Race isn't the issue. It's culture. A subset of the black community.

I think this was mentioned in something I posted, or maybe I heard, but what initially stated off in the black community was quickly adopted by other groups as well. The muslims in London had been calling for something of this sort for some time, but as it turned out, even kids of the well-to-do got caught up in the rioting.

Some Muslims might have, sure, though I imagine even if there might be a constant continuing desire for comeuppance among some of that community, that technically the riots were probably unrelated. I don't know that it was incited by any of them, though I do know it was started by *A* racial minority in response to a bit of police brutality.

I might be wrong, maybe the police brutality was against a Muslim, I was more concerned about contacting some of my friends over there than I was the details really.

Considering the school expense riots and the attacks on Charles and Pamela, I figured that these riots might also have the same cause for at least some of the groups that joined in.

EDIT: Oh, you just said. Black community. And you didn't say the Muslims started it. Sorry, reading comprehension for the lose.
