$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'N')early 80 per cent of the shops in Tonga's capital appear to been destroyed after fires set by youths targeting Chinese-owned shops spread to raze the city centre, correspondents report.
Groups of youths roamed the streets, overturning cars, smashing windows and setting fires while police stood by watching the violence, Mary Fonua of the Matangi Tonga news website told The Associated Press by telephone from the capital, Nuku'alofa...

Let us make him who shall nourish and sustain us. What shall we do to be invoked; to be remembered in the earth.
We have tried with our first creatures but we could not make them venerate us.
So let us try to make obedient respectful beings who shall

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '"')Fires quickly spread to places not intended to be burned, including businesses owned by Western investors, and Tongan businesspeople," he said.
"There is no shopping centre left in the capital," said Mr Tapueluelu. "The main shopping centres are already burned out in blocks -- it started first with the Prime Minister's (Feleti Sevele) own shopping centre.
"The people looted that -- they started drinking the beer they looted and from there no one could control them," he said.
Rioters moved on to a duty-free shop and continued drinking the alcohol and distributed money from it to people in the area.
"From there the fires started spreading," Mr Tapueluelu said.

This will occur in Atlanta, LA, Detroit, St Louis,...you get the idea.
Note the root explanation: Targeting Chinese owned shops. This is also set for rinse and repeat. Plug in any players you like.
Stop filling dumpsters, as much as you possibly can, and everything will get better.
Just think it through.
It's not hard to do.

This will be repeated many times in Africa as the Chinese continue to increase their presence. Bet the house on it.

Overseas chinese face the same kind of treatment as jews have for centuries. They are despised and hated for their wealth and intelligence by their host communities. When the Chinese leave Tonga, perhaps the native monkeys can go back to banging on drums and fighting their tribal neighbors to the death.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('kam30en', 'O')verseas chinese face the same kind of treatment as jews have for centuries.
Thats a bullshit. Chinese actually do work, unlike jews. And in business these crooks behave way more decent then your tribe does
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('kam30en', 'T')hey are despised and hated for their wealth and intelligence by their host communities.
Another bullshit. They are despised worldwide for what do they eat, and they are not hated generally at all. In some countries may be due to specific conditions. For example, in Argentina their shops do not pay sales tax (21%) so they made low prices and drove e v e r y o n e off market, except for big guys. Still they do not hate them.
Finally, answer me one question, who are smarter, Jews or Chinese?
