The 'rioters' are Caucasions. The % of Blacks in the metro are is minuscule. Other than the idiots brandishng fireworks defenders are brandishing leaf blowers. Yes, leaf blowers.

I agree that the bad actors should be picked up and arrested. Otherwise this is much like a play yard fight ...

If it gave them the right to protest in the roadway, it should've been blocked off with cones & whatever. I'd question that they should've allowed people in the roadway at night. But it was a terrible accident.
Vehicular homicide....

Regardless of your hypocrisy, if you think sending Federal agents into a state to "crack down" on protesters is the solution, I can guarantee you it's going to have the opposite effect.

Not matter what side of the aisle you're on, you should be outraged at the Federal government's overreach here. Otherwise you truly are a hypocrite.
Were you outraged at the federal government's overreach when the Obama administration spied on the opposition party's Presidential campaign and orchestrated a 3 year long coup attempt that was based on pure lies? Of course not.

You are a hypocrite. Spare us the lectures on federal overreach. You're completely fine with it as long as the overreach is accomplished by other left wing extremists like you.

Huh? Dude drove down a highway normally, somehow wasn’t alarmed about vehicles parked sideways in the middle of I-5...passively or aggressively?

Gotta wonder how these 30+ adults on paper were thinking blocking a highway at 1:40 am on a Saturday...or anytime for that matter...Darwinism at work here for sure. White folks with nothing else to do but patronize African Americans...and in the end, this idiots win the Darwin Award. The driver of the car gets an honorable mention and is certainly has a Darwin Award in his future.
