Boston Tea Party

Technically looting is theft for personal gain. Dumping tea into salt water has a personal gain factor of zero.

There was personal gain. Colonists like Samuel Adams and John Hancock were smugglers who brought in and sold Dutch tea to avoid British taxes.

Try explaining "that" to the owner of the goods being dumped into the sea. I am pretty sure he will disagree with your ridiculous factor zero.

Obviously. But if you're still too dim to grasp the difference between destruction and naked theft, this conversation will be short.

So it's all right if I steal a car and immediately crash it?

I explicitly said otherwise - and you were too dishonest to notice.

Yep, discussion definitely over.

That happens when your argument no longer holds water. Did you know that both George Washington and Ben Franklin were against the destruction of private property.

but they stole king Georges property and dumped it, Private citizens property and business are being stolen and destroyed.

also a bloody war followed , is that what you want?

It was not King George's property. The tea belonged to the British East India Company, which was a private company. King George collected the taxes.
