Show me one credible source where it states THOUSANDS of bad folk. It's a few dirt bags taking advantage of a horrible situation.

Trump Pledges to Deploy Troops Across the U.S. Amid Protests.

“As we speak,” Trump said, “I am dispatching thousands and thousands of heavily-armed soldiers, military personnel and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism, assaults and the wanton destruction of property.”

It is incredible that in the pretext of a protest, that people resort to looting, vandalism, assaults and the wanton destruction of property. I thought this happens only in the undeveloped countries, where the people are not 'so' educated or developed!

It seems, I am mistaken, dismally mistaken!

Do you have the original of that quote that can be verified? At this time of high venerability it's a good idea to remember Russia's heavy use of disinformation to interfere in Western affairs.

I've seen THOUSANDS of peaceful protesters being attacked by police and a few dozen looters.

Yes >>> https://www.msn.com/en-xl/northamerica/northamerica-top-stories/trump-pledges-to-deploy-troops-across-the-us-amid-protests/ar-BB14TMwH?li=BBKxOg5&ocid=mailsignout

 

Sorry. Intended to include it, but forgot.

Edit

use of disinformation to interfere... This we cannot attribute ONLY to Russia, because that 'status' is shared by many.

My search only shows peaceful protesters and a few outside agitators. Prove me wrong by the THOUSANDS.

Because you would be in fear of your life or in fear of losing your property? I've got a shotgun I haven't fired it in 33 years but I can't imagine shooting someone over personal property. Maybe if they threatened my wife or children.

I have no idea about how many peaceful protestors / Violent protestors there were and I have no idea where they came from .

  How do you know the violent protestors came from elsewhere ?

Some probably did and some probably didn't

The whole issue is becoming a war against Pro and Anti Trump. Society totally obsessed by Trump, is completly diverting from the genuine issue here, that is unacceptable police attitude, lack of police accountability and institutional racism. Racism that has been pointed out by various scolars in US Criminal Justice Institutions and politicians.

 What is the "real issue"?

Can you give some instances of when there was mass civil unrest , similar to whats been going on in the last few days , by White people and the authorities have given them a "pass" ?

Why would there "mass civil unrest" by white people?

White people get everything, by default!

FYI: the USA is a white- majority nation!

White people make the rules, white people get a pass!

White people never had to fight for voting rights!

For example!

Stop being annoying!

Yes, that shows outside influence , I understand that and can believe that .

You keep implying that rioters solely come from elsewhere and that no locals are participating in the riots, that is what I disagree with 

CNN (that is a well known anti Trump media), admitted that the looters were part of an organised group useing scrambled walkie talkies and seemed well organised, a bit like the anarchists of the Black Block Movements (nothing to do with skin colour) that terrorise such gatherings in Europe. This has become a war behind the screens between various extremist groups who are either pro or Anti Trump. As usual, it is the common man on the street who pays the price one again, while some partisan medias and politicians are stettling their own scores. CNN was very disappointing as their anti Trump comments were biased and hardly hidden.

 

Racism of any form must be severly punished no matter who or where in the world. It has nothing to do with settling political scores as it is being done actually by some media.

 

Paris had some very violent police reactions during the yellow vest gatherings in 2019 with violent and brutal police response against peaceful and elderly protestors. It did not make such an uproar however.

You are forgetting the white people who lost their jobs when the oligarchs of industry exported manufacturing to Asian countries because the labor costs were cheaper. They are the ones who voted for Trump, in the hope he would change things. They were conned by a sociopath who only wanted to enrich himself further. Now they are enraged too.

Time to ditch the Make America Great Again slogan, you guys should settle for Make America Sane Again.

See it now. Seems some main stream media 'forgot' some parts like this:

 

“My administration is fully committed that for George and his family justice will be served. He will not have died in vain,” Trump said. “We cannot let the righteous cries of peaceful protesters to be drown out by an angry mob. The biggest victims of the rioting are peace-loving citizens in our poorest communities, and as their president, I will fight to keep them safe.”   CNBC

I'm not sure that's Russian disinformation, but it might be. What you can be sure of it's that's coming, as is Chinese disinformation. You can also be sure that some of us will bite on it if it fits our narritive. Brave New World.

What do "White people get by default" in the USA .

White Females did indeed have to fight to vote .

My point was that if there were similar protests predominantly by White people, the police reaction would be the same 

  You seem to be suggesting that White people are allowed to riot in the USA

Some might. 

Mine didn't. 

I've never met a white person that mentioned theirs did. 

In any case black parents really need to because its a fact that black people are stopped more often, searched more often, and murdered more often by the police.
