The USA has had well over 100 riots throughout its short history. Hell, it was a riot that started America down the path of seeking independence. In 1773, The Boston Tea Party was a political protest riot because the British government allowed a British East India company to sell tea from China in the America Colonies without paying taxes. (“Taxation without representation”) The American rioters just board the ships and destroy the entire shipment of tea; they also burned down the ships. Oddly, today the “American protesters” would be called looters. Wait, no they will not; they are not black. Interesting indeed.
