L.A. and Cincinatti Tantrums

By Brian Webber

A lot of talk, especially lately, about riots. Los Angeles and Cincinatti in particular.

But can you really call them riots? I watched both events on the news as they occured, and it didn't exactly seem like riot was thr right word.

The word I would use is 'Tantrum'.

You know how when your a child, and you get so mad you break your things? Or when a prisoner gets so mad he burns his own mattress.

That's what happened in L.A. and Cincinatti. Years and years of police brutality coming to a head. That is why I expect a tantrum in New York City any time now. I even cancelled a planned vacation there (I was going to go to a showing of The View).

Just wait.
