Description EDIT: I just got unfriended on Facebook for the first time for pointing this out.

Seems like the SJWs people forgot their US history classes and the whole damn point of the Boston Tea Party incident.

If you did, you would realize that the BTP protest and modern-day rioters destroying innocent people’s property are NOT COMPARABLE.

The Boston Tea Party didn't hurt innocent people. It was a "FUCK YOU" to King George and the British government, by tossing taxed goods into the harbor because they taxed the colonists for tea without their consent. "No Taxation Without Representation," remember? Throwing the tea into the harbor hurt the government and their wallet, because we were pretty much tossing money into the ocean. It didn't affect anyone else.

But flipping over and torching cars, raiding businesses, torching people's houses, attacking police unprovoked...only because you're pissed off about a civil rights violation? Yeah, that's called rioting. Or throwing a violent tantrum...Either way, the only ones who are hurt by that aren't the government, like you want it to be. It's the innocent people whose property you just vandalized, you dick.

You have every right to peacefully protest. But there's a difference between a peaceful protest and a riot. What the colonists did was a protest that only hurt the government. But destroying people's property is not a protest...It's a riot.
