How about we condemn it and rally around the victims and support them ...because that is who needs the support. What would you suggest doing...just drop it and forget about it?
I’m actually not particularly left.
I am a logical realist. And I am capable of understanding different perspectives.
Rebellions are messy. They also tend to expand into all of the following: civil unrest/disobedience, genuine protesting, advantage looting, infiltration, rioting, etc.
The smoldering “volcano” of racial inequality just needed a trigger and it got one.
The pendulum swings.
IMO this rebellion was deserved and needed. The extreme will settle. Hopefully, evolved changes will be permanent.
If a white guy says the same thing could we take them at their word it’s not a race thing but an idea thing?
Or do they need to have “dreamer” status as their victimhood check mark?
Can we accept BLM just uses race as a tool?

I can only hope you get to experience some of this "deserved and needed" violence yourself.
There is no rebellion that justifies demanding people give their private property to others based on color of skin. It’s the most outrageous thing I’ve heard in a long time. This is the true nature of fascist totalitarianism.

Love the emotional responses to a post void of any.
I’m 75 — Born & raised in the Los Angeles area. Just sayin’.
To be clear, I stated: “this rebellion was deserved and needed”.
I did not state: “this violence was deserved and needed”
However, as stated: “Rebellions are messy”.

Cubans like me are extremely anti-communist.

I’ll remind them they have to play by your rules.

Please do. At least remind them that demanding other people's property as recompense for ill-treatment of ancestors in times past is NOT a way to be taken seriously. It's a way to be laughed at and dismissed outright as freeloading money-grubbers, though.

Take a look at those hashtags at the end of the article. Jesus
Its not my rules Annee. BLM does not have any legal right to my private property. Maybe they can go to communist Cuba for that.

Historically that's how it always works.
But good luck convincing people that they are repeating the same mistakes.
