This happens even in my US city. When there is a major protest that keeps the Police busy, criminals take the opportunity to loot stores while there is no law

- cheriot 4y agoIn SF's BLM protests, they were completely separate groups.

- bandyaboot 4y agoEven if your wild generalization were true, what would be the purpose of a congressional investigation?
- baby 4y agoI was part of the protests so let me tell you that your comment is dumb
- throwayyy479087 4y agoI’m glad that you didn’t take part but I promise you many did.
- baby 4y agoBTW I'm French and I'm used to this kind of rhetoric. Every time there's a demonstration (and we do a lot of them) the newspaper and "the other side" will use the minority of distractor to discredit the movement. It's so common I wish there was a name for this strategy. Perhaps we should call that a "misrepresenting minority fallacy".
- pbiggar 4y agoI went to dozens of BLM protests in 2020, including the one in SoHo that got the most publicity. The number of looters from among the protestors rounds to zero.
