It's not just property damage... there are plenty of stories about the owners of the property being damaged too. A lot of people for better or for worse have attempted to defend their homes and livelihoods and unfortunately paid the price for that decision. So people are getting hurt on both sides. Whether one side or the other is just as bad is somewhat moot at this point... it's not a contest. I think the behavior of certain extremists on both ends need to be stopped. It's as simple as that. Rather than debating on whether or not it's worse to pepper spray a child or bead down a restaurante owner so they can destroy his livelihood, lets just say both terrible.
And reforms I'm sure will be a discussion we will have when the immediate crisis is over. But it's not something that's going to happen WHILE the looting and the rioting is actually occuring. That has to stop, and if the police and protestors can't do it then Trump will. And YES that's potentially disasterous... which is why hopefully it won't come to that.
I'll say this though... in this particular instance I am 1000% okay if they can even delay the chaos. Right now we're in the middle of a pandemic. Hundreds of people are likely going to die because these protests are occuring at the worst possible time. If all this can even be delayed a few months, potentially a lot of lives could be sparred. So yeah... if we can even arrange a delay, that works.
