How many cities saw protests and what percent saw violence. And I see now that Now it’s become “coincident” so not necessarily anything to do with the actual BLM movement.
After all this still no support for the broad generalization and this is such a broad claim it requires extensive support. And because you’re not calling all cops bad, it’s rather apparent that the standards of support and focus are very divergent.
Note, Fox News or Breitbart is not a credible source on this matter due to long demonstrated bias and mischaracterization about race. Although not even those were provided.
On the other hand my claim was narrow, that something existed to consider, not the extent of it.
Anyway, FIY between 93% and 96% of George Floyd murder protests saw no property damage. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/10/16/this-summers-black-lives-matter-protesters-were-overwhelming-peaceful-our-research-finds/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/10/16/this-summ...
What percent of the 4 to 7 % where it did occur was due opportunistic looters, white nationalists causing trouble etc is not known, but I can’t stop anyone from intentionally ignoring those aspects.
