Could people take out their anger on the people causing rather than their peers? What kind of piece of shit do you need to be to not just ruin your peers life but also a whole movement by giving it a bad rep...

opportunistic assholes, the same sort of asshole that loot homes after flooding etc

The people responsible for this are just there for the violence, destruction and looting. They use the legit protests as a cover. They don't care about the people or the movement

Welcome to crab mentality. Humans are scared, dumb, fucking creatures, man.

I forget the exact details but in Milwaukee the cops shot a black kid and in response the community.... burned down a gas station and hair salon in their own neighborhood.

There was a clip of a woman being interviewed begging people to stop destroying their own neighborhood. Something like "go to the suburbs and burn their shit down!! We need our weaves!"

Idk. A lot of unfocused rage and anger will take itself out on the first thing it can find.
