Left wing news publications defending rioting, looting and thuggery again...
According to Wikipedia, The Philadelphia Inquirer is the third-longest continuously operating daily newspaper in the nation and has won 20 Pulitzer Prizes. The newspaper's circulation is currently the largest in both the state of Pennsylvania and the Delaware Valley metropolitan region of Southeastern Pennsylvania, South Jersey, Delaware, and the northern Eastern Shore of Maryland.
And this week, this opinion piece of published:
Philly looting, riots are wrong. But so is ignoring what is driving the behavior.
I didn't think I would ever be alive to witness such insanity.
Board libs, feel free to weigh in when you're done talking about Lauren Boebert.

Silly me. I thought it was because when you allow bad behavior with little consequence, particularly among those without a father figure in their life, then guess what, bad behavior will continue.
But AOC told us these were hungry people looking for bread to eat. Why are they walking past the bread to get to the alcohol and stealing iPhones?

Selling an iPhone can pay for rent and/or buy a lot more bread than stealing 5 loaves.
Not condoning it of course but the logic is there.

People rarely if ever steal out of need.
99% of the time it's depravity and greed.

They would tell you they "need" to steal. I remember when I was 18-19 a friend of a friend stole a shotgun from my truck . The police contacted me because he had been busted with it along with drug charges. He later came to my door to apologize, literally crying saying I didn't understand, "he NEEDED the gun at that moment". My dad was pissed, he demanded I press charges for theft, but his parents paid for the gun, and threw a $1000 on top if I didn't press charges. So I didn't. The police later contacted me again to give me the shotgun back, I told them to keep it. It felt dirty to use it again plus I had already been paid for it.

At least the police seemed to be doing something about it. Someone tell those scholars that its not an election year, and the police aren't going to be ordered to stand down just yet. They just need to wait a little longer until Trump wins the GOP nomination, then everything in most cities will be free for the taking.
Yes, I realize that doesn't make any sense, but that's just where we're at.
