The rioters and blacks don't really care about black on black deaths. They say as much. To them even one shooting of a black by cops of any color is reason to destroy everything around them. This is the generations of unreasoning hate that have been instilled in them from the street preachers and politicians and media at work. They are lost and can't be salvaged only contained.

It's really much more practical than that. They "care" about police-on-black deaths because those can be used to increase power. The deaths are weapons, or even really just ammunition.

It's like income inequality. They don't actually care about it. It's just a tool to be used to weaken the producers' power.

That's why they are happy to lie about whatever they need to lie about in order to get the riots going. It isn't about truth or justice at all. It's just a ladder to power.

These are the powers that be. The useful idiot cannon fodder on the ground might actually care somewhat, or be incited to "care." Their existing anger and resentment about their shitty lives is being used to further the cause. They're just tools, too.
