It seems like all it takes is one more police shooting/misconduct or a trump victory to cause chaos in the streets. There have been protests everyday but most remain violent and nondestructive.

There will be more. All it takes is one incident. We also have high unemployment, rising crime and the election coming up, wich is emotionally charged in an already simmering environment.

Dont expect any normalcy or harmony this year in society. No sugar coating or "think positive it will all be ok." Being realistic is best. Sometimes that realism and the truth is just ugly.

After Trump wins the election, the rioting will become open warfare.

Finally.

Then it will end. Quickly.

Totally agree. I am expecting the worse.

Afterwards, I predict:

State Attorney General Keith Ellison has overcharged the cops for the death of George Floyd. When the cops' cameras show George Floyd high on fentanyl suppository (who knew that was a thing?) and George Floyd resisting arrest, it will be harder to convict the cops for homicide.

So why did Keith Ellison charge the cops with homicide, instead of an easier to convict charge of manslaughter? Does Keith Ellison want Rodney King style riots? I think so.

You mean like Vietnam or Iraq? The Palestinians?

Trump is already in office. If he get re-elected there's no reason to believe miraculous changes will occur.

This reminds me of your scenario where you shoot somebody in your house. It's dependent on them accosting you in a convenient was in order to try to rationalize doing it .

It's like in Death Wish. In order to get the audience to accept all the vigilante killing they have to have his daughter get raped and his wife beaten up.

You need to stop looking at these Post article and take a real vacation where you shut all that out. You have a lot of pent up rage and it's going to eat you up

If they completely defund the police, then can be no more police brutality.

Don't you think arson attacks of federal building are warfare? Aren't riots warfare?

You would have to be naive to think that Trump's reelection wouldn't set off the revolutionarily BLM/Antifa. If they can't win an election (with Biden), BLM/Antifa will attempt to win by force.
