First, let me make it clear I do not condone or agree with looting, lighting cars on fire, any of the violence. Those things should not be happening. However, I think we need to focus a lot on the people protesting right, and also the reason the protest and riots are happening.
I'm not dismissing it saying it's okay but there's been so many situations like this lately and it's not changing anything. So people are going to be furious. I have no idea what they have gone through. But in history you can see black people have been discriminated against and to feel cops can kill people of that race and not face consequences has got to piss them off and make them feel they have a target on their back. There's people there getting violent and starting fires, that's not okay but there's so many people fighting for the right thing over there that are being over looked.
People want to say not all cops are bad, you cant group all cops together because what a few do and that's true but in the same way you can't say all the protestors are handling it wrong, or acting like animals or whatever you want to call them because of what a few do.
These riots are scary and I don't want any one to get hurt in it, but at the same time I'm more of, let's figure a way to stop the killings and that will stop the riots. These riots aren't randomly breaking out they are breaking out after a life is taken. Let's not try to make this all about the riots, lets try to keep everyone safe and stop people from being killed.
