#1 Dan Bongino: 'Apparently, Condemning Irma Looters Makes You Racist'
09-12-2017, 06:11 PM
Former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino blasted critics who he said labeled him a racist for previously condemning looters in Florida.
"Apparently... discussing looting now makes you a racist," he said.
Bongino, who lives in Florida, said those who are burglarizing stores during Hurricane Irma are "hack, phony frauds who have no lives."
He said the political left makes excuses for looters during natural disasters because their livelihoods are "based off clickbait."
Bongino said that, if people can market their side of an issue by declaring the other side racist, "some idiot is going to click on [their] article."
He said that the left and some in the media speak as if they understand the looters because it is a way to blame capitalism for something.
Paraphrasing scholar Thomas Sowell, Bongino said sympathizers see it as "not the criminals fault - it's society's fault. If we were a little more socialist and Communist, or better planners, we wouldn't have this problem."

I think looters should be shot on sight. I guess that makes me a killer racist.
Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

Noonie:
Loot - Noun (with an object) anything taken by dishonesty, force, stealth, etc.:
Loot - Noun (without an object) to take loot; plunder:
Loot - Verb: steal goods from (a place), typically during a war or riot.
Looter - Noun: ↔stealer, thief - a criminal who takes property belonging to someone else with the intention of keeping it or selling it.
Looting - Verb: also referred to as sacking, ransacking, plundering, despoiling, despoliation, and pillaging, is the indiscriminate taking of goods by force.
There are no racial connotations of race in any of the above defined nouns or verbs. I might opine that in most languages that have ever existed on the Earth the definitions cited above would be accurate.
To those individuals who have criticized the noun or verb usage as racial
(a) If the shoe fits (video footage) wear it.
(b) You may be hurt by the truth, but it's better than living with a lie (obviously not operative in this instance)
(c)Truth sounds like hate to those that hate the truth
