[quote="Sgt>Stackem":ea45e]in '68 they called the riots in Detroit RACE riots, whats the difference? You cant use the word "race" anymore?[/quote:ea45e]

I don't get what you're saying....

Why not just say riots and save yourself a word?

It's not even really a race riot seeing as the people involved are of multiple races and are mainly just the poor living in these ghettos, and it wasn't necessarily instigated by race either, but more by economic situation coupled with location.
