I don't see any destruction here, just a protest. But you don't like the message that Americans are not going to lay down for your lies.

To left wing authoritarian extremists, they view disagreement with them as violence.

After seeing the riots, I apologize to any white person hurt by any black rioter for having dark brown skin (disclaimer that I’m not of African descent but I’d guess about half of you would think I was Black if you saw me in person).

Why don't all white people just go to a police station and plead guilty to stuff they didn't steal or any unsolved crime ?
Then the Asians do the same !!!
Then the Hispanics do the same !!!
Eventually the alligator will getting around to eating light skinned blacks too !!! You just won't be black enough !!!

Don't disrupt the narrative with facts.

That's the problem with you anarchists: that moral and logical consistency.

Why? Did you do it? The point of this conversation is that you don't have to "confess" to crimes you didn't commit. Your apology is wholly unnecessary.

I rode a bus as the only white male and played basketball as the only white male and was threatened often. I managed to avoid getting attacked by a gang of thugs (not really sure how other than being big and athletic, avoiding hot spots, and lying low). I did have the good sense to get thousands of miles away and only go back to visit family.
