Yes, thank goodness for live social media showing abuses by cops and blacks trying to stop whites hiding their identity from damaging property.

Soft shoeing. Being understanding because "outrage, mad, frustration etc. Like dealing with children. They should be condemning these punks, not understanding and soft shoeing.

Of course they are. The end game is to destroy the economy of the Democrat led cities when CV couldn't. The media is just helping it along, as usual.

And if they portray any impression on this or any other situation they are reporting they are criticized for displaying bias if their view disagrees with the viewers(as posters so frequent point out on CD). News should report and show and allow the viewer to form their opinions, I don't need them to tell me they are rioting, looting and vandalizing I can see that myself.

I don't see the journalists stoking the flames.


It is our politicians who should be messaging the people - not the media.

I don't know what planet you're watching news coverage from, but what I'm seeing is a lot of people everywhere condemning violence.

If you condemn violence, you don't commit arson, vandalize other peoples property, block streets, run over policeman with an ATV, etc. A true protester who condemns violence does not engage in violence.
