The Spring of Rioting 2020

Destruction and obstruction.
    Cities burn, run by herds!

     
     Anarchy, you see,
     Is no mirror of democracy!

     
     Businesses destroyed.
     Free running shoes, girls and boys?


     Patriots simply do not steal.
     They love this land, with utmose zeal!

     
     Have faith, have enormous hope.
     Mature Americans are not dopes!

David Mchattie Date: 5/31/2020 9:49:00 PM Sometimes I think we are beyond the rioting and looting. But I guess not. So sad. Have a great day my friend. Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 5/31/2020 11:38:00 PM David~ it only grows worse. Like a Godzilla! I can't believe the things I saw. kids, age 13 being taught to loot. Looting 101. I call that child abuse. And being with a crowd of loonies~ child endangerment. Trying to burn down the White House? How low can one go? Some would cheer. The USA is killing itself, like an awful cancer. Even burning beautiful, innocent trees. Put these maniacs in lockwards. Or jails. Thank you.. Panagiota xoxo

Robert Lindley Date: 5/31/2020 8:19:00 PM Right as rain, dead on point my friend. How about the cos that ran away-leaving innocent citizens at the mercy of mad-roving stealing/burning mob? Aren't they paid to not run way? But do so every time a certain group decided to use a terrible travesty to go about stealing/looting, burning and hurting others. A fav- as such poetic truth is a much needed revelation. Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 5/31/2020 8:39:00 PM Hdllo my dear friend! Drive by shopping! The latest thing! Minneapolis' mayor and gov of that state decided to do nothing! The onus is on them first, both should be removed from office. They did not have enough manpower to handle that crowd. Death of one man of any color~ is no Visa card to shop for free. Californians are odd but do not burn down cities. Watts being the exception. More whites have been killed by police than blacks. We never hear that, do we! The idiotic lockdowns plus hate groups plus the loss of a man~ all kerosene on an angry nation. We better get a grip, we are not animals. SANE Action is needed~ not reaction. We all get hurt in this one, I am disgusted Robert. Panagiota xxoo

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/31/2020 5:33:00 PM Don't you think some instigators were planted at those riots too? I do. Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 5/31/2020 7:20:00 PM Domestic terrorist groups cross state lines to do this. Burn, loot. The latest in drive by shopping. Free at the cost of loss of business owners. People do not burn down their own cities. Paid groups do this.Antifa being the main one. Imagine your city...destroyed? Or all the PD vehicles gone! All for a pair of running shoes or jewelry. These hoodlums are not victims!

Andrea Dietrich Date: 5/31/2020 5:32:00 PM It was outrageous how some of them acted. They never heard of "peaceful demonstrations" ? (well, they are schooled in bad schools these days, so I guess not). good poem, Panagiota. I see you are numbering your poems now. Good idea!! Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 5/31/2020 7:13:00 PM Schools are not bad. Kids come to school with built in hatred at age six. They can spell profane words like champs, are fearless in fighting, beat teachers, break noses of teachers, steal their cars and coats. It is like being in Iraq. I have seen these kids beaten by their parents in front of class, Hit with yardsticks if they say they like a book. And teachers insulted because they are not black. It's quite insane. Teachers know this but never speak out. Too afraid to lose their jobs?They are also shot at when leaving schools. Welcome to Chicago Public Schools(((( PS poem count is way off. That's why I am numbering them, hugs Panagiota xoxo

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders Date: 5/31/2020 4:19:00 PM So sad, Panagiota...these are all symptoms of much bigger problems. Blessings, Rhonda Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 5/31/2020 7:01:00 PM Rhonda~ try lack of belief in a Higher Power,perhaps. Man thinks he knows it all. But there are issues that can be solved. But people do not want them. Peace, Panagiota. Destruction and loss create pain for all in the USA.

Tom Cunningham Date: 5/31/2020 1:42:00 PM The police involved have been chucked out and should go on trial for what they did. Why are people rioting and destroying vehicles and businesses of people who were in no way involved, it's criminal what theyre doing to white and black businesses. Tom Login to Reply Panagiota Romios Date: 5/31/2020 2:13:00 PM The citizenry of the city are not rioting, these are imported and/ or paid for anarchists.notably, Antifa! The Policeman has been charged, is under arrest In the uSA, a trial does not happen the next day. People with brains understand this, those run by gonads, want him hung tomorrow. I used to be a protestor, that is legal if done peacefully. To punish business owners, hurt others is a crime.my Dad owned a business~ I can't imagine how that effects that family.Racism like the virus makes for news. No one race is above another. Panagiota xoxo the news gets off on riots
