The reason is simple enough - and it’s the reason we will see the same official reaction here in the USA: rioting immigrants/minorities/underclasses offer a government many opportunities to expand its power, while vigilante citizens who take matters into their own hands pose a dire threat to a government’s power.

Absolutely... No question

“rioting immigrants/minorities/underclasses offer a government many opportunities to expand its power, while vigilante citizens who take matters into their own hands pose a dire threat to a government’s power.”

That was the position taken here in NJ for decades, until the money ran out. All of the welfare hives are laying off cops (Camden NJ eliminated its whole force, turning law enforcement over to the county), and while they haven’t told people to make matters into their own hands it has become obvious that there is no other choice. Any taxpayer settlements along the frontiers of the welfare reservations have been braced against them for years, and it is practically illegal for the welfare population to move outside of the reservations.
