So this 17-year-old "kid" looted from a shoe store, and Slate blames it on... *drumroll* SWAVEWY!
And let's see if the shoe store can be blamed for not genuflecting enough to BBBlacks. Apparently, looting is presumptively justified.
Who owns this shoe store? Do they treat Black customers well? Hire Black employees and treat them well? Were these shoes made ethically or in a sweatshop somewhere? Have you heard anything that implies that this shoe store doesn’t have insurance that will allow it to recover, unlike the people whose deaths led to this uprising, and those who have died while it is taking place? And are … you … OK? Did you not take the time to read about the, y’know, 400 years of oppression that have led kids like your son to steal shoes?
And
This botched experiment of a nation owes your son so much more than a pair of sneakers.
You're born owed something because you're black. Let's not talk about who owes whom reparations if we're going to get into the business of race-based reparations. I am pretty sure vast amounts of reparations would be due from one group to all the others, for the astonishingly high rates of rape, murder, and drug dealing.
Are we expected to believe that the son performed some kind of woke check before looting the place?
Also "Have you heard anything that implies that this shoe store doesn’t have insurance that will allow it to recover" ... congratulations, your son just made that insurance more expensive. When's the bit where your son pays for the costs he has wilfully inflicted upon others?
Fundamentally, though, it's racist reasoning. A white person did something unjustified to a black person, therefore all black people get to do whatever they like to any white person.
They are much akin to soldiers of a certain mid-20th-century warring nation, repeating to themselves "I'm just following orders, just following orders. Nothing I do is my fault, it's all the fault of the people giving me orders."
The best part is that this also actively helps big corporations to destroy small businesses because the corporations can afford to pay the premiums in the moment but not all small businesses can. Eventually after the competition is dead, quasi monopolistic market will reap all the benefits.
They don't even understand what money is, they think it's a commodity. How on Earth can we expect them to understand the concept of insurance when they are that economically illiterate.
If you think money is a commodity, and value is objective, then your concept of insurance must be fucking hilariously retarded.
Nah dude, black people have Neeeeever managed to go to school and get a decent paying job. Neeeever, it's impooooosibleeeee. Every time a black person does anything he instantly has 20% of his efforts cut off by the system
We, the whiteys, literally keep living for free off the honest black people's wages by removing said 20% that goes directly to the white supremacist funds and shit.
Everyone knows that America became most powerful in the 1800's when we couldn't go from one city to the other without shitting ourselves to death, off the back of a few states having a decent cash flow, rather than in the years after WW2 when a new industrial revolution occurred while most major countries were busy figuring out what bits of rubble were corpses and what bits of rubble was just the rest of the city, and all America suffered was a bombed base some fires and hundreds of thousands of dead men.
Were these shoes made ethically or in a sweatshop somewhere?
They aren't made ethically. So what now? The retard teen still wants to parade around in it? So that shows he doesn't care. He never did, he just wants to own status symbols.
Sounds like a Racial Communist / National Socialist at least partly crying about capitalism as a justification to steal. She's just adapted the racist rhetoric to the "defense of looting" argument.

They're desperate to avoid conceding that actions have consequences, for fear of being held to account for their behaviour.

Insurance is like gambling at the casino, the house dictates the rules and they're designed that the house always comes out ahead overall.
That one store may not pay for everything immediately. But everything will be paid for by the stores in the end.

You're missing the best part. This is definitely a middle to upper class family right here too. So they could afford the shoes if the kid wanted to.

I seriously cannot believe that this isn't satire.

Ebonization is the new Aryanization.
