With police officers being targeted and killed during these riots, i dont blame them for being on edge.
Most of the stories I see where these people are supposedly innocent rarely have any way to verify that they are innocent. These rioters think they are justified, of course they think they're innocent.
(other account, as I was permabanned for asking this question...)
That makes sense. Reddit doesn't show those police officers actually being targeted and killed, they only show the point of view of the protesters, but browsing this sub I saw that police are being targeted as well.
Reddit focuses on such a small part of these riots.
These rioters are also killing people of all colors and destroying black businesses like crazy. Now reddit will say these werent protesters doing this, but BLM isn't even denouncing this senseless violence. So what would lead anyone else to believe its not the protesters doing this?
Yeah that's certainly true. They should have come forward and denounced the violence, if they had any sense. I don't believe it's not the protesters doing the rioting, but it's just a subset of the protesters. Just like probably only 1% of the cops is bad, but that's still a lot of cops so a lot of video footage, if only 1% of the protesters is bad you've got a shit ton of rioters who are going to destroy entire cities.
