They do seem to be protesting in large numbers and that looks to me as participating. Or do they have to only join in on civic activities that you approve of. Does it count if it doesn’t create goodwill for you?
protesting doesn't mean to spray paint federal and public property, doesnt mean you throw bottles of urine, bricks, fireworks, etc at police officers, just b/c you can.. It doesn't mean you scream at police officers, calling them names, yelling at black cops that they are uncle toms and traitors, doesn't mean you burn down businesses, cop cars, and loot stores...that is not civic activities, and no; most people do not approve.

I agree. I do not see or know anyone personally who participates in those types of protests. And just about everyone’s kids that I know of have participated peacefully. And they all vote. Must be very different where you live.

No one is saying it does... its difficult to separate out the protesters vs the opportunists taking advantage of the situation.
Try and keep up instead of promoting falsehoods. I don’t expect you to have enough character to admit you’re wrong, sadly however.
The spread is narrowing. I'm 6/6/2020 it was 53% support and 28% oppose and on 7/23/2020 it has shrunk to 50% support and 36% oppose. Keep up the riots.

All the protesters I know have good jobs, good apartments, nice lives. They feel policing is unjust mostly. They’ve all seen their minority friends and associates profiled. I hear the stories first hand. I would protest too but I’m too old and afraid of covid. It’s actually seems kind of fun.

Yup... A lot of people here organized a walk / protest in support of BLM. Yeh.. a few harassed them... and a few people's signs got vandalized. But for the most part it was peaceful.
I surmise that MOST protests are handled in this manner around the country.
Its just those that want to proliferate a particular view and define in their own biases what BLM means, simply only reference what is on TV and what only backs their views... They always equate protesters with rioters to vilify them but when the tables are turned, they are sure to separate the criminal elements out as a separate isolated group.

Uh, yeah, many actually saying it does. Unsurprisingly, this mob quickly decided the ends justify the means, thus, across many cities, the mob has justified violence and destruction. The bodybuilder on CNN also defended violence by the mob with a rhetorical question. Open your ears and take off your ideological blinders.

Because they say it doesn't doesn't make it true. You don't know what percentage of the mobs make up BLM and what percentage are just opportunists/criminals.
No one knows.
But we do know there were many protests throughout the country and most didn't turn up into riots.
