The reporter wanted the cops to intervene. Twitter gave him about 98% raspberries for calling for the cops after CNN had passes the previous 36 hours race-baiting and encouraging the riots.
In any violent revolution, members of the supportive press are the first against the wall.
Fox News reporter Steve Harrigan got into a verbal confrontation with a woman he was interviewing when she accused him of wanting video to “make a f**king fabricated story” about what was going on. HAHAHAHAHAH
“I don’t think violence solves anything”.
Tell that to the King of Troy.
Tell that to the Persians at Marathon.
Tell that to the Carthaginians at Utica.
tell that to the Muslim Moors at Tours.
Tell that to the French at Agincourt.
Tell that to the Ottomans at Malta.
Tell that to the Ottomans at Lepanto.
Tell that to Lee and Pickett at Gettysburg.
Tell that to Paulus at Stalingrad.
Tell that to the Germans at the Battle of the Bulge.
Tell that to the French at Dien Bien Phu.
And that very brief list only takes you to the early 20th century.
Violence is very non-discriminatory; it can be used to do great evil, or to defeat great evil.
A citizen using violence to defeat a thug attempting harm is a good thing.
A thug, (whether private or government) using violence against an honest citizen or poulation is a bad thing.
So my response to your words I quoted is; violence has solved many problems (and caused many), it just depends on how and why it’s used.
