most of the white people destroying things and it isn't good. This is another example of systemic racism.....to try and make a group of people look bad by your own actions.

...how are Black people looking bad if the property is being destroyed by white people? I think you may be overssimplifying it.

These are facts: More than Black people are doing "peaceful" protesting. More than white people are destroying property.

It's impossible to pinpoint who is doing what. It would be pretty easy, though, to arrest those other cops and to focus on the corrupt criminal justice system that brought us to this point in the first place.

... that started from murdering George Floyd. It's not Black Lives Matter's job to stop the other protesters from destroying property. Black citizens are going to get murdered regardless of the property damage. Justice and accountability by the police is all that matters.
