look, i get the point that riots draw attention and show people are fed up. that makes sense

but, in baltimore that just led to lax police, more crime, and more homicides

i believe the same will happen with these riots. police will withdraw from blac neighborhoods, and the criminal element will have free reign. that is a bad outcome, and more innocent people will suffer than will benefit

we are trying to make life better for innocent black people, but being scared of the neighborhood gang bangers is not a step up from being scared of the police

and this will not bring justice for the victims, police may throw some sacrifices, but they otherwise will just be less caring about black neighborhoods and police mistreatment of black people, and the gulf will widen
