@alancook9780 That's what you guys don't get. It wasn't any group. That wasn't like the trump riot. It wasn't bound by an ideology. The riots that happened were like the 90s one. Spontaneous due to the anger of the people. We saw this before with the killing of Latasha Harlins and the 1992 Los angeles riot. The difference is just that many more killings happened near each other, across the country, that has much faster news and social networks. It was done by police, and it is part of the greater issue of police reform(the officers got off, or light punishment too), and racism since the issue hadn't been resolved from the 90s one. The right wing attempt to conflate that kind of riot is ridiculous.
It's like you're saying that since black people were involved, that it was BLM. When it just wasn't. BLM ALSO organized protests due to that being the nature of how they were formed. And people protested it in general, or joined them. But that is separate from the riots. I have no connection to BLM. But we've seen this kind of riot before. And it happened where I live. We were all aware. And you could even find protests organized that either stopped the riots or didn't let it start. BLM and other protestors were against it.
Who knows, maybe the protestors, and blm actually helped calm that down by giving people an avenue. Or it was the curfews, whichever, maybe both.
So unless you think BLM time travelled to be responsible for every angry riot that happens, it just doesn't make sense.
