Is this biased reporting?

MOST of the kids at Woodstock were white just as MOST of the people in Toldeo who were rioting were black. Not an issue of race - an issue of economics ("broke-as-a-joke").  My use of the qualifier "ALL" was misplaced but my argument stands.

This ultimately comes down to ignorance. Ignorance not just in the form of racism, but also, that the planned march acted like a pressure release valve that allowed those on the bootlicking end of the economic scale an excuse to [justify] the letting off of steam in the only way small minds know how - through violence and destruction.

When you see [poor people] rioting and looting - thank capitalism.

So what you are saying is that poverty generates ignorance, and that the only way for ignorant people to "let off steam" is to riot? Get real! I don't understand where you’re coming from or how you think your "argument still stands?" In my opinion, your ideals and generalizations aren't helpful to society, rather facilitate a destructive mentality. It is ideas like yours that incite Anarchy to justify the means. It just dawned on me that when I read your posts, I feel like I'm reading the lyrics of a Rage Against The Machine song.

EDIT - After re-reading what you wrote, it seems to me your implying Capitalism is the cause of poverty and poverty is the cause of violence; thus Capitalism = violence in your words. This is more tangible to me than poverty = ignorance because I know a lot of very intelligent people who failed to make a living and would be considered poor however, I fail to see how Capitalism = violence as a truism in your arguments.
