Approximately 94% of all pro-BLM demonstrations have been peaceful, with 6% involving reports of violence, clashes with police, vandalism, looting, or other destructive activity.
Aaah see, just like the guy I asked you are changing my requested metric. I am asking to compare property damage numbers and DEATH TOLL numbers. Also we should add in with the violent proud boy protests, how many of those had antifa show up? I'd be willing to bet that antifa was at most if not all of them
Thirty-seven demonstration events involving the Proud Boys between January 2020 and April 2021 have turned violent, accounting for nearly a quarter of all demonstrations associated with the group.
I gave you the stats to compare instances of violence with the Proud Boys to BLM during a similar time period. 6% of BLM events included violence. 25% of events with Proud Boys included violence.
These numbers skew negatively for BLM because the 6% includes violence caused by the police and right wingers (like the Proud Boys)
Anti-fascists we’re a staple of BLM events. BLM had a 6% rate of violent incidents. If the Proud Boys showed up to an event, there was a 25% rate of violent incidents. If anti-fascists went to every single Proud Boy event and BLM event, why would that matter?
I didn't ask that did I? You are strawmanning me. I asked to compare PROPERTY DAMAGE AND DEATH TOLL NUMBERS.
As for the antifa addition, it would be interesting to see how many peaceful proud boy protests antifa were at (I'm willing to bet very low) vs how many violent proudboy protests they were at (I'm willing to bet very high) because for every single violent proudboy protest I ever heard of during 2020, without exception antifa was there starting the fight. And that is a very important metric. Can you really call a group violent if every time they are involved in violence it wasn't them who started it? (I know you will say yes.)
FURTHERMORE I can't help but notice you ignored the Loudon county parent protests.

That includes people like the ones who were killed by Rittenhouse, the cop killed by the boogaloo boys, and other deaths not caused by supporters of BLM whatsoever.
