Commies have been exploiting things like this for the longest. They look for any opportunity to riot and cause chaos. If the slime ball liberal snooze media did their job correctly, more people would know and understand what's going on before stuff gets out of control.
This started with the Sacco and Vanzetti case, at the direct orders of Stalin, who saw the hapless duo as useful pawns. The communists started developing the tactics they would perfect later, like bringing in some celebrity, getting a quote from them, and publicizing it.
