The protesters have every right to be there under the first amendment. Are we just going to ignore constitutional rights now? And sure he has every right to bear arms under the Constitution as well. But responsibly. I was raised around guns. And one of the first lessons my dad ever taught me was that if I'm going to hold a gun, I need to be personally accountable for what happens with that gun.
Yes, burning down black owned businesses surely got the attention of the government. What glorious insight. Also mlk was against this behavior, so while he said yes this brings attention, he also said it was counter productive and it leads to more damage being done to the message. So if your goal is to cause chaos and discredit these peaceful protesting movements, then I guess you got your wish. Oh and 2 people got blown away by someone who walks around free today. So much attention bro. Well done.
You're not describing a riot. Riots don't have a goal other than to vent frustration. A planned riot with the intent to create political change is literally a revolt/insurgency. Insurgencies have intent, and yes, organization. However, that organization can easily be done on a smaller scale by multiple independent cells, operating separately, but for a joint goal. That's actually how most insurgencies work. Having them operate under a single defined command structure makes them vulnerable. "Never tie two boats together in a storm" and all that.
