The cooperation of our people was very noticeable, we did not see, for instance, price increases, hoarding and looting of shops and petrol stations. – Manuel RoxasRate it:
The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can't get and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time is made good by looting A to satisfy B. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is sort of an advance auction sale of stolen goods. – H. L. MenckenRate it:

At 26, I'm looking out and witnessing a physical revolt, and it's a revolt on a scale that I wasn't sure I'd ever see. To those that may not be looking close enough, all they will see is looting, or people who don't really care about the movement, or anarchy without a movement. But what I see is a society responding to the oppressor about how the oppressor has responded to us, racism is what the country was built on : Slavery, systematic oppression, then voter oppression, female oppression, poor education system so you're intentionally uninformed, financial oppression. – Keke PalmerRate it:

Still they are spreading rumors about it and fools wearing masks accept it. – Mukaibar ShahRate it:
Everyone we come into contact [ with ] in those neighborhoods, if they don't have a legitimate reason to be there, if we don't arrest them for looting, they'll be arrested for something else. – Roger MooreRate it:
I also ask people to stop the violence and looting being done in the name of justice, and never make assumptions based on the color of a person's skin, instead of tearing things down, let's reflect on our mistakes, be proud of our evolution and look to our way forward. – Melania TrumpRate it:
I don't deny people were looting there (in eastern Ukraine). – Serhiy MelnychukRate it:
I don't think I'm inclined toward prior restraint, let the evidence show what the evidence shows. And if the evidence shows that any or more than one of these people were engaged in arson, rioting or looting, then I'm not going to tell the defense they can't call them that. – Kenosha CountyRate it:
I guarantee you the vast majority of the people involved in the rioting and looting couldn't point China or Taiwan out on a map, they were there as opportunists because they have had very limited economic opportunity. It's a very poor country with high youth unemployment, and this just shows how quickly these things can spiral out of control in a country that's volatile. – Jonathan PrykeRate it:

I want to be very clear about all of this : Rioting is not protesting. Looting is not protesting. Setting fires is not protesting. None of this is protesting. It's lawlessness, plain and simple. And those who do it should be prosecuted, violence will not bring change, it will only bring destruction. It's wrong in every way. – Vice President BidenRate it:
Internal and governmental bureaucracy in Germany is quite out of control, there is an inherent lack of sympathy for the victims of Nazi looting. – Christopher MarinelloRate it:

It seems to me that our American colleagues should now be somewhat distracted from the instructive tonality that they have been spreading over the years in relation to other countries, take a look in the mirror and then describe everything that they saw there in statements, like those they addressed to many countries of the world, we presume that, in carrying out measures to curb looting and other illegal actions, the authorities should not violate the rights of Americans to peaceful protest. – Maria ZakharovaRate it:
Its changed the way everybodys looking at this. Look at the millions of people marching around the world. George Floyds last moments before George Floyds May 25 death while in police custody were captured on video and has sinceprompteda worldwide movement to combat racial injustice and calls for police reform. Protests have occurred almost daily in many cities across the world, with some devolving to looting and rioting early on. George Floyds was killed unjustly. Martin Luther King Jr. was killed unjustly. My father Reverend Alfred Daniel Williams King was killed unjustly, my grandmother, Reverend Alfred Daniel Williams King, was killed unjustly. I mourn and grieve with the family of George Floyds. I still miss my beloved family members. – Reverend Alfred Daniel Williams KingRate it:

Let us also put a focus on the people who are protesting peacefully as you should see in a democracy, these incidents of looting and attacks are isolated incidents. There are anarchistic groups that always infiltrate these peaceful protests. But the protests, marches, and some have been massive: these are people who want a change, that the abuses don´t continue and it´s those we should focus on. – Heraldo MunozRate it:
Looting strikes at the heart of property, of whiteness and of the police, it gets to the very root of the way those three things are interconnected. And also, it provides people with an imaginative sense of freedom and pleasure and helps them imagine a world that could be. And I think that's a part of it that doesn't really get talked about – that riots and looting are experienced as sort of joyous and liberatory. – Vicky OsterweilRate it:
Marriage is a device originated by women for looting the men. – Vikrant ParsaiRate it:
My directive has been very clear : ‘ Lock ’em up. ’ We will not tolerate it, and we have not tolerated it, so we have apprehended those individuals associated with the looting that we have been able to identify. – LaToya CantrellRate it:
New York City once described as America's crime capital, had become by the mid-1990s, America's safest large city, murders, shootings, and violent crime are increasing at percentages unheard of in the past.

On the looting, that's an intelligence failure, if a couple of hundred people knew to be in a certain place at a certain time for criminal activity and we didn't detect that, that's on me. We've gone back looking for' where was the Facebook page, where was the chatter in the places where we monitor gang's social media' and we still haven't seen it. – John MillerRate it:
