Except that we are protesting not because police is trying to defend themselves, but because they are killing people who are posing no threat, and using self-defense as a convenient excuse to kill.

No one rioted when Mohammed Noor shot Justine Damond.

Maybe they should have, instead of holding a vigil and a march. If they had yelled at cops and the DA they might have seen faster progress, rather than it taking 9 months to charge him.

I don't know what riot means to you, but:

1. There wasn't an 8:46 video showing Noor murder her (no video publicly released until trial?).

2. The PM of Australia immediately denounced it and called for action.

3. BLM protested the shooting and failure to immediately charge Noor in the streets of Minneapolis.

4. The police chief resigned almost immediately.
