Oh, good, so I’m not the only one conversant enough in English to get what she thought she was saying. I’m taking a lot of flak on another thread for having the same take as you.

She meant what she said. She wanted them to destroy with impunity.

Im giving her the benefit of the doubt in her intent. I really understand what she meant, but Id say shes incompetent. She meant that when you give space for free speech, youre also allowing space for those who have malintent. But, as you said, shes in a position above her competence, so she misstated it and inadvertently gave permission. That's I have understood it also. She should have given space to lawful assemblers, but that does not mean she needed to give **any space** to rioters and looters. The moment the destruction started--which was very predictable--she should have had everything ready to stop it immediately.

She gave them the space to destroy again last night. Down at the main 'battle front' they stood there all night and watched. They pressed in one time to put a fire out inside a corner liquor store. When they got it out they backed all the way out and ceded that 'space' back to the rioters.
All this after backpedaling the comment that caused her grief.

She looks like one of those “Shoe Throwing Mothers” Eddie Murphy talked about.

I've made it very clear that I work with the police and instructed them to do everything that they could to make sure that the protesters were able to exercise their right to free speech, Surprised she isn't out there beside the looters, burning cars.
How did we get to this?
