The problems that the crowds are complaining about are very deeply rooted and cannot be summed up in a single social media post. I won't take the time to sit and lecture you.
I can understand being overwhelmed if you're only now tuning in. But there's a ton of opinions and views if you'd only pay attention. Take the time to learn about the problems instead of reflexively whining that the police are the easiest/only solution.
I'll leave you with two links from my own echo chamber. The last few words of John Oliver's Last Week Tonight from a few weeks ago are extremely relevant [0]. And, here's a story from someone who claims to be a former cop [1].
