From the article:
That’s when the danger spiked for officers and their families. While protesters were fueling worldwide outrage and fundraising over allegations of police brutality, an aggressive cohort of agitators was terrorizing the families of law-enforcement officers with threats of death, rape and arson.

Figures released March 1 by law enforcement showed that 661 of the 709 arrests involved out-of-state protesters. Of those arrested, 227 had a total of 1,503 previous citations and charges, including domestic violence, child abuse, robbery, burglary, drug possession and driving under the influence.

I'm shocked

I was thinking most were fine, upstanding, law abiding people who meant well and just got in over their heads.

Hard core leftist activism is often a kind of therapy for folks who know they are bad people and have a pressing need to feel like they are good. Dedicate yourself completely to fight against the "real enemy" and not only will all the stupid, irresponsible, mean, cruel things you've done in you life matter less, you'll have the chance to engage in even more meanness for the greater good.
