These riots are maddening and are taking away the message of those protesting peacefully for change.

I have seen commentators/doctors etc. on all channels (liberal to conservative) say they are worried about the large crowds in relation to the Covid-19.

I have read elsewhere that there are outside groups that hijack the normal protesters, making them look bad. Apparently they've been doing that sort of thing for years so that when good people try to make things better, they end up looking bad.

It's a shame.

The intentions were justified, but then the leeches and snakes looking for a quick fix lifting an ipad come out is the result unfortunately. They couldn't give a rat's you know what about protesting an atrocity.

Wuhan Man and Derek Cauvin. They go down in history as the two men who ended Donny Teflon's bid for another 4.

Why on earth are there protests happening on the Interstate Highways? Is that even legal? Seems extremely dangerous to me.

No, it’s not legal, but law enforcement is too overwhelmed to arrest thousands of people.

It's 100% what is happening. The protestors are for the most part all peaceful and I absolutely support their right to protest and what they are protesting. However, there are separate groups of people showing up and just causing the looting. etc. We've had friends confirming this and we saw it ourselves, last night.
