There has to be several groups funding this violence. Most rioters are not locals. They are from other places. They have transporation costs, food and lodging costs, & if arrested, legal costs.

Some illegal entities are funding this.

I hope law enforcement can determine who is funding it, capture them, & prosecute them to the fullest for whatever laws apply....domestic terrorism, enciting a riot, illegal firearm violations, & whatever else.

Well, I think I read that Bank of America gave BLM a massive loan?

So I imagine they have money to fund their own violence at this point, if that is accurate.

EDIT: That was incorrect. Here is the article--they are pledging $1 billion to support economies damaged by COVID-19: https://www.forbes.com/sites/antoine.../#4fb2139a41cc

Who is funding the violence besides George Soros?
You don't need money to run around screaming and throwing rocks. They do it because they like doing it. They think its a rush.
