What about when some cop points a gun at an unarmed civilian in my scenario. Should the civilian and the community the civilian is from allow this to happen without consequences for the cop?

Here are 8 white people who pointed guns at police officers — and didn’t get killed
And you think there are black guys who point and don't get killed too? Give me a break.

When people come on here justifying looting and violence as a CAUSE for a black gun brandishing thug getting shot. ... there is no sense talking about it.

You have a problem with the thug who committed a CRIME in this story? I haven't seen you once condemn THAT and the reason for that is it doesn't fit your AGENDA.

And you have what evidence to support your contention (other than opinion)? Ahh, none... Okay.

Civil disobedience is something that the founders understood had to be allowed to flourish where need be.

It's why we got so many of our rights protected.
So exactly WHAT do the citizens of the neighborhoods that get burned down/looted have to do with anything you claim are the problems?

Go trash a police station (if you dare) or loot city hall if that's the solution you think is the way to get your point across but there's NO justification other than ignorance and childish lashing out for hurting those who have no control over anything you complain about.

No, you don't KNOW that at all. You THINK or ASSUME that but unless it happened you don't KNOW.

One option is NOT to riot and burn down buildings! I don't care what they think will happen in court. Rioting is not the answer. Courts are a viable option. There are many, including appeals courts and the Supreme Court. If BLM would try to reform the justice system, including paying for good legal defense for poor people, and getting public attention on injustice in a civil manner, then people would be much more willing to listen. But rioting is exactly the opposite of what they should do. If you want public opinion on your side, don't do that.
