All the facts do not matter to the people who use something like this as a reason to riot and loot. Look at the looting these people did. What does that matter to the issue of a man being shot?
When you find out that this man was armed, did not comply with the police directive, and then was shot by a black officer, you would think that these people would feel bad about not waiting until they found out what really happened. The people who rioted were not concerned with the truth. They would have jumped at any excuse to break windows, steal things, and set fires.
These people are goofballs. They tow the line until there is something that happens that they think gives them cover to carry on.
When something like this happens, I sit and wait until the real truth comes out. Even then, I would not take place in a riot. A riot does nothing but give people a chance to steal things and set fires.
