While the AP doesn’t put it this way, those numbers mean that a plurality now disapproves of “protests in response to police violence,” whereas a majority approved of such protests in June. And this survey was conducted before the latest round of violence in Louisville and elsewhere.
This shift is ominous for the Democrats:
Just 35% of white Americans approve of the protests now, while 50% disapprove. In June, 53% approved, while 34% disapproved.
But disapproval of the riots is growing among all ethnic groups. Note that Latinos sympathize with rioters even less than whites, which helps to explain President Trump’s growing strength in that demographic:
Among Latinos, 31% approve, compared with 44% in June; 63% of Black Americans support the protests, down from 81%, with more now saying they neither approve nor disapprove.
Nothing about this is surprising. Riots have never been popular, and Democratic Party happy talk about “mostly peaceful” assault, looting and arson isn’t fooling anyone. Watch for this trend to continue from now through Election Day.

The rioters are all democrats. The democrat party supports the rioters.
The riots are government Tyranny.
When Mayors and Governors refuse to enforce the law and allow rioters to burn people’s property and commit violence, that is Tyranny.
That’s why we own guns. So that we can defend life and property.
“A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
I know one American who’s lost patience: ME! But I lost patience at the start of the first one.
We’re sheep.
We won’t even fight back.
Wait and see.
The American people are such (censored) for many years now. They just let the Bill & Hillary felonies go gliding past them. They vote for governors, mayors and DAs who encourage sanctuary city and other blatant lawbreaking. They allowed the impeachment of an innocent man. And much more.
I personally will never forgive them for their evil in enabling the leftist news media people, the BLM supporters, the socialists and the Dems. They knew what they were doing.
Attempted willful destruction of our free Republic is a heinous crime.
They had other media available to learn the truth and other teachers besides their leftist ones but were too lazy and just stayed Dems like their mommies taught them when they were tots on the carpet in front of mom-—they never matured.
They made their choices all this time. I will never forgive them. For what it’s worth. I am only one person.
From a poster named Miguel, about a legal immigrant friend, now a citizen, from Cananea, Mexico:
He called me yesterday and asked if there was some way I could help him come to Arizona with his family. The restaurant has been closed and the owner came to see him two days ago and told him he will never be able to reopen the restaurant and has lost everything but the money in his pockets. He was crying and gave my buddy three hundred dollars.
Alejandro told me that it is very unsafe where they live. Gangs come to people’s apartments and break down the doors to rob them. The police do not respond. The kids cannot go to school. His rent is over 2,000 per month and he can no longer pay it.
Five years ago my friend became a U.S. citizen. He voted for Hillary Clinton. He married a Puerto Rican girl in New York who has always been a democrat.
Both of them are furious and my buddy believes that NYC is now worse than Cananea where the drug lords took control and made him leave for the US.
My buddy and his wife are going to be voting for Trump. Her parents are going to be voting for Trump.]
Your post raises an excellent point. Even those who aspire to come here illegally don’t want to come to a chaotic, unstable country.
This Trump Hispanic vote is gonna be huge.
Call up the militia.
PS we have many Black neighbors, all normal, all tax-paying and very good citizens. It's about the people not the color
I’ve very patient. I just want all rioters shot, dumped in a pit and covered up with dirt.
The “black lives matter” slogan is not beloved by Latinos—surprise, surprise, surprise!
Here Here!!
Ladies and gentlemen: DO NO MISUNDERESTIMATE THE ENEMY!!!
Several rioters were arrested here in Louisville last night, carrying AR-15s and multiple high capacity magazines.
They are NFA. They would love nothing more than getting into a shoot-out with patriots.
The Left-Wing Media will defend their every move and they will brand
any patriot as a “white nationalist”, even if they’re black.
The time will come (I pray it won’t, but I am armed with some decent firepower), but NOT before the elections.
Keep your powder dry and don’t hand Harris a gift.
Will LeBron James and celebrity friends BS spell the end of Joe Biden?
In light of Hillary Clinton telling Biden not to concede, the press asked President Trump about an orderly transition. The question to ask Biden is will all the senseless violence end after November 3rd - is he going to call off the dogs?
They are trying to trigger a response and I fear they might soon get it. When Geraldo Rivera says that he will now respond regardless of the consequences insults his wife, his space, etc., he will fight back. Even though he might suffer legal consequences. It is time...

Americans are too patient with the rioters.
With all the 2nd Amenfment talk, too few have been shot.
The same thing happened in the 60’s and it spawned a generation of Conservatives like myself.
Children watched them burn down Chicago and we asked: “Why?”
