Blacks Riot In Florida

The Daily Mail reports on a "Huge 400-man riot erupts after skate-park party is canceled at the last minute and organizers call on friends to meet there and rampage anyway." From the lede:

    A 400-man riot broke out at a Florida skate park after the venue canceled a planned after party at the last minute. 

    The large brawl erupted Saturday night in the parking lot at Astro Skate in the Tampa Bay Metropolitan area after frustrated party organizers put out a call online encouraging people to 'riot' and 'confront law enforcement' at the skate park.

    The rampage saw more than 400 people, both children and adults, fighting, stealing and causing damage to local businesses.

    One group of rioters caused $500 worth of damage to a convenience store and another beat a juvenile before throwing him through a glass window at a nearby barber shop. 

    Twenty-three youths and six adults were arrested in the violent outbreak, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has confirmed.

Also:

    Investigators say the fight broke out after Astro Skate canceled a planned after party because the event hosts failed to hire an off-duty deputy to monitor the event, as per company policy.

    Although the skate park refunded their money, the party-goers were seemingly angry and took to social media asking people to meet at the business and riot.

    When deputies arrived at the scene, approximately 400 to 500 people were fighting and causing disturbances in the Astro Skate parking lot and at nearby businesses.

    Deputies issued multiple warnings informing the crowd that they trespassing and needed to leave, but the group carried on the rampage.

    Smaller groups broke away from the large fight and targeted nearby businesses.

 And this is over a trivial matter. But because politicians, business and community leaders, all coddled and encouraged this behavior in the wake George Floyd's overdose death, a growing segment of the black community believes this should be their default response to anything that irritates them.

    Another future flash point will be the dispute over reparations for slavery, discrimination, or whatever excuse comes up. And the demands are only getting increasingly rapacious. For instances, another Daily Mail article reports that "Black Bostonians demand more than $15billion in reparations from the city as local white churches discuss offering $50million."  That article explains:

    Head of the Commission Reverend Kevin Peterson told WCVB even though the group is asking for $15billion, it is 'not enough' as 'every life is incalculable.' 

    As well as the $15 billion requested from the City, the Commission is in talks with Boston's white churches about a possible $50 million payout. 

In other words, the $50 million is on top of the $15 billion being demanded. How long before this issue is used as justification for riots?

    And RFK Jr. is pandering for the black vote: "RFK Jr. vows to give black farmers $5 BILLION in reparations if he wins the White House and says funds are 'not money, that is entitlement' despite white counterparts labeling it racist." At issue was a $5 billion fund set up by the Federal government to pay off loans incurred by black farmers as a form of reparation. Some white farmers sued the government on the grounds that the program was racist by excluding other races. The result is that the fund was split with $2 billion earmarked for just black farmers and $3 billion earmarked to pay off debts of farmers generally that have suffered financial hardship. (Odd that the people opposed to paying off student loan debts are silent concerning similar programs for farmers or other businesses).

    1. The worst part was calling on others to come to the location specifically in order to riot and loot.
