Speaking only for myself, I support the peaceful protesters. What happened


to George Floyd and to Ahmaud Arbery (and others over the years) is simply not right on any level and peaceful protests are 100% warranted. I don't know of anyone that disagrees with that (not even politicians). The issue I have is those who aren't protesting - they are simply trying to create chaos and anarchy to achieve a political agenda. There are likely groups on both sides of the political fence that are involved. And all of those a-holes need to be stopped. What kind of political statement is made by looting and burning down local businesses, many of which are owned by minorities? And what about defacing the Lincoln Memorial and the WWII Memorial? What right do any of these morons have to do something like that? They are completely disrespecting the memory of George Floyd and hurting the cause way more than they are helping it.
