What people are failing to see is the difference between the actual protestors, and the looters and rioters who are moving in where ever they hear of a protest going on.
Both my daughter and my best friend who live in tow very distant cities, report the same thing happening, that isn’t making the MSM news.
There’s a protest and as soon as the protestors are dispersing, car loads of people show up, jump out, and start looting and rioting.
The police are not opposing the protestors and Trump is not threatening them.
They are going after the opportunists who are causing the wanton destruction and chaos.
Very well said, and from my research I see similar.
And the rioters try to show up while the protesters are still there, so the police have to gas the protesters, and create more news, and it makes it harder for police to catch the rioters.
FOrtunately, in my city, after the first night, where an actual Virginia House delegate HELPED the protesters resist the police, the protests were taken over by a pastor, who has done a great job of keeping these peaceful. On one night, a couple of windows got broken, and police were able to catch rioters and looters without using any tear gas or bullets, and the next day it doesn’t look like any damage was done to anything.
