    Are you saying that because you believe it or because that’s what the system says?

      I was parroting the bizarre talking point people use in response to political/social issue riots.

      People will hand waive or justify violence by the police. When the public responds in anger, the response is “Can’t we think of the property!?” What these people are saying that property has more value than a human life.
