It doesn’t insinuate that the term is racist?Merkin Baller said:
Agreed, nowhere does that article suggest we can't use the word looting anymore, only that it was wrong to use in reference to these incidents in CA, a point with which I also agree.HughFreakingDillon said:
that's not saying the word is cancelled. it's saying the word has a specific definition; looting is during a chaotic event; they are saying don't call the incidents described in the article as looting since they were organized robberies.nicknyr15 said:
From the article:
"The penal code defines looting as "theft or burglary...during a 'state of emergency', 'local emergency', or 'evacuation order' resulting from an earthquake, fire, flood, riot or other natural or manmade disaster."
"To some, the distinction may be small, but Lorenzo Boyd, PhD, Professor of Criminal Justice & Community Policing at the University of New Haven, and a retired veteran police officer, emphasized that words matter."
"Looting is a term that we typically use when people of color or urban dwellers are doing something. We tend not to use that term for other people when they do the exact same thing," said Boyd."
It goes on:
"These types of massive, organized smash and grabs were happening before the Rittenhouse situation, because it happens cyclically," said Boyd. "It's a false equivalency. It's people trying to politicize crime."
"Both experts expressed the importance of media literacy for viewers to critically think about the language used by public officials and the media as we all try to make sense of these complex issues our society is facing.
"People draw their own conclusions, if the terminologies that you use are tethered to people's understanding of how they have been used in the past," said Reynolds."
I have no problem with what's being said in this article (I didn't watch the video). He's drawing a distinction between looting and what's happening with these organized robberies in CA and I agree with his point. These incidents in CA aren't looting. That he suggests "looting" is typically referring to "people of color or urban dwellers" is his opinion, which he's entitled to.
I personally don't think looting is a racist term, but in the wake of the Rittenhouse verdict, and the events that lead to the Rittenhouse shootings, I can understand why he would want to clarify the usage of the word in regards to what's happening in CA.
Regardless, nowhere is it suggested the word "looting" needs to be cancelled.

The hypocrisy (i.e., every accusation is also a confession) seems to be a feature. Really, is the cognitive dissonance / mental gymnastics of the 100 million just that impressive or do they simply love having different rules for themselves while claiming the libs are the ones benefitting from different rules? I guess it paid off nicely in terms of the SCOTUS.Halifax2TheMax said:Well, well, well. Look who’s all for cancel culture. To go along with the book burning and document tearing.
