There are a ton of heavy, non-looting protests going on as well.

Absolutely and I don’t think that any reasonable person will have any problem with those. I can’t speak for all the places in US but my observations in San Jose (both personal and through FB/media) is that police was cool with peaceful protests. I saw a few times police and protesters hugging each other, doing fist bumps, etc.

From my experience a protest usually becomes exactly as violent as the police initiates. In every protest I’ve attended the police is always the most violent actor.

This is my experience as well, and that also is the conclusion drawn from this article we're all commenting on as well lol.

Did you just start paying attention? People complain about any protest no matter how anodyne. Meanwhile people keep dying.
