What is the difference between arsonist/ looters, and demonstrators?

What should be done? Should property owners just stand by and let the arsonists/looters destroy lives and property? Should we fight back since law enforcement is impotent?

    Arsonist = someone who sets fires

    Looters = people who steal things (and will destroy property to do so)

    Demonstrator = a person who demonstrates their feelings about an occurence or situation

    In Ferguson Missouri, the law has stepped in and many people

    (looters, arsonists, and demonstrators) remain incarcerated and are awaiting Court dates.

    The Solution = Law Enfocement Officials need equal rights.

    -- Whether a *gang* flips a car, an *assailant* targets someone or something with a molotov cocktail,

    or *anyone* is handling anything which can be construed as a weapon in those circumstances,

    they should be shot dead ..... no questions asked.

    -- If a 300 pound thief was coming at me *drop-shoulder* like he was going to take me out

    with a football maneuver, and I had a gun, I would have blown his @ss away too.

    -- Hands-up, don't shoot = A raft of SH*T …. and a preponderance of the evidence has proven it.

    If you're a Ferguson resident, then by all means ARM YOURSELF and do what you have to do to protect yourself and your loved ones.
