I respectfully disagree. I'm going to copy and paste what I said to people in real life about the same thing. I believe as long as the riots are not targeting small businesses, they're acceptable.

i think people fail to understand that people didn’t IMMEDIATELY go to rioting.

So please stop with this narrative, no one immediately jumped to rioting
This isn't a narrative, stop justifying the ravaging of our cities.
Who's gonna pay for this damage? The taxpayers.
I'm not justifying it, I'm explaining why it's happening. Your post is very one sided and I'm explaining the side of others. If you want me to pick your post apart further, I can do that too
Also, I'm not sure where you got that information. Most businesses are insured so their insurance (usually) covers it. If you have a source for your information, please share it.

Of course my post is one sided, it's titled my opinion. It isn't meant to be informative, if someone wants to be informed about black lives matter and the murder of George Floyd they aren't going to turn to the DSGHQ Forums for information, they're going to read articles, watch the news, etc. I'm venting my frustration regarding the topic on a club penguin forum.

Also, not all damage is going to be covered by insurance. Many small businesses were already struggling due to the pandemic. So one could assume that if their insurance isn't able to cover property damages, then their businesses will go under. Not only that, but not all landlords require tenants to insure their inventory, so many small business owners, such as Sean Wotherspoon are likely going to have to pay for stolen inventory out of their own pockets. They don't have as much money as larger corporations such as target, who can easily pay for their stolen inventory and other damages.

Thats only regarding the privately owned establishments that have been looted or damaged. The publicly owned ones, that I apologize for not previously mentioning in my post, are payed for by tax payers. Damage done to roads, police stations, fire departments, parks, and more. Will come out of the pockets of tax payers.

Over this weekend my city, Chicago, has been ravaged by rioters. I'm a believer in peaceful protest, I believe it's the most effective and moral form of protest. But I draw the line at rioting, these thugs are taking advantage of an unfortunate situation.

Ravaging your community, in the middle of a PANDEMIC, in the name of black lives matter, is counterproductive. Small business owners had no part in the murder of George Floyd.

Thankfully, the evil cops involved in the murder of George Floyd have been charged with 3rd-degree murder and manslaughter.

There's always going to be bad cops, want to make a change? Request court hearings, protest peacefully, stand up to injustice when you see it.

Want constructive change? Good, so do I. But you can't go about that by destroying your community.

exactly. everyone including bots and cz characters. Or maybe cz characters can be a little harder to kill meaning people have to work together but don't make them outrageously OP

Crimezone characters and bots are fine, but real, genuine players. Should be at a leveled playing field with other players.

Medkits, and armor are fine, however.

get rid of it

dont worry ur all good dont stress it

wise words khal

this is way better than my prom that got cancelled

How did you forget my iconic apology posts with IM SORRY by Lil Uzi Vert linked at the bottom??

Thank you for this statement, sad to see CZ actors feel they are allowed to bully users.

Give people their chance of owning a land it really isn't that hard

Agreed!

I was very optimistic with a joint kingship between Khal and Nate.

It's bothersome to see Dorval handed right back to Sg..

Khal was so happy to rule.

Sad to see someone who has held the land for 2+ years, can't get over his own greed.

I also can't seem to figure why he has had his legacies reset constantly, he's ruled longer than any non-Drake ruler has..

Hate to see it.
