So we're just going to pretend that cities aren't going up in flames, businesses aren't being destroyed and innocent protestors, rioters and police aren't being killed?
There is an extremely blurry line between peaceful and violent protests. Unfortunately all of the chaos of recent days that the WaPo and others (Obama, etc.) seem all too eager to sweep under the rug has ruined things for everyone.

The proportion of looters vs protestors is much lower than bad cops to good cops. If you are going to let a few bad apples spoil the bunch, why are you not saying the same thing about cops? If it’s about the cost, then why aren’t you complaining about the $5 trillion in looting that Congress just passed to redistribute wealth upwards? Or did you just watch a Fox News clip and get mad about what they want you to?

How do you know this? I'm not saying this is not the case. But how do you know this? I suspect that there are a lot of good police men, just like there are a lot of good protesters. How do you come to the conclusion that there are more of one than the other?
