While yes I'm sure there are some whites and other races that loot, it's not the rule.. With blacks they never have a protest that doesn't turn into a bunch of looting.

The sad part is, the current police state pisses me off and I think cops are going too far. However all that gets tossed away because they become justified because idiots run around looting like a bunch of ignorant assholes. They take away any sympathy that you can have for their protest, then wonder why they get stereotyped or racially profiled.
Riots are different than protests normally though. vancouver riots after a hockey game (of all things to riot for..hockey) they were mostly white and canadian--plenty of looting though.

jerks are present in any crowd.
