3. What utter tosh.

4. This is preposterous

"White people deploy the idea of looting in a way that implies people of color are greedy and lazy, but it is just the opposite: looting is a hard-won and dangerous act with potentially terrible consequences, and looters are only stealing from the rich owners’ profit margins. Those owners, meanwhile, especially if they own a chain like QuikTrip, steal forty hours every week from thousands of employees who in return get the privilege of not dying for another seven days."

Black people = freed slaves with nothing

Business owners = wealthy white corporations

Riiiiiiiiiiight.

7. who is generally hurt by looting?

Small business people, often people of color, the community at large, the message protesters are trying to convey.
