Blacks overwhelmingly support the points of view that lead to these BLM riots. This emboldens these rioters which lead to more riots and violence. The fact that this happened in London is telling because the BLM narrative makes even less sense in the UK. It shows that Blacks across the world will riot simply to show their anger with the having to follow the rule of law. We've seen riots like these in France, Spain and even China. All these riots have happened after a Black criminal died while being apprehended by police.

Except there is one difference. BLM isn't a separatist group. They don't want segregation back. They don't want racial supremacy. It is about police brutality. The rioters and violence are often from people not affiliated with the protesters.

A better question is this. Why do the violent join in?

First, it isn't BLM rioting. It is the people not affiliated with BLM who stir up the violence that takes place at rallies. You know, you have your peaceful protesters, but then the violent people stir up crap. Difference between protesters and rioters.

Second, maybe this is the issue. No one supports criminals. The issue is this: Would said criminal had died if he/she wasn't Black? Based on over a century of history, even I don't think think this would be the case.

Third, what points of view are you talking about that would cause riots?

And something else. Rioting by some White sports fans causes alot of damage. Some people have died. And that is taking place here and in Europe. What is the difference in terms of damage and destruction in the end?

Riots, as well as crime (I'm most certainly correct) only concern you when they're done by blacks. And riots are as old as this country has been in existence. Your exaggerated claims look silly.

The draft riots of 1863 (where BLACKS were attacked), The Zoot Suit Riots, the Orange Riots, several anti immigrant riots, and many more.

Riots are American as apple pie.

That is pretty much it. The only time it is considered a severe emergency if Blacks riot. This really about the fear of Black people in general

Molotov cocktails, fireworks, and bottles have been hurled at police during a ‘Black Lives Matter’ riot in East London following the death of an alleged drug dealer.
Rashan Jermaine Charles, 20, died in hospital after being apprehended by police in Dalston, Hackney on the 22nd of July. He was attempting to flee a shop while swallowing a stash of drugs when tackled by officers, according to reports.

Oh stop.
I can barely listen to NPR with their extreme liberal bias. And I used to be a liberal activist. I know the whole dog and pony show.
You live in an indoctrinated bubble and think NPR is superior because you agree with them and they support your world view which you think is superior.

Aren't you being closed-minded and intellectually lazy.

It clearly happened and your response is to mock the news source.
