Civil unrest of the type that one associates with Detroit or Watts in 1967 may be less likely to degenerate into assaults, looting, and property destruction when video of such offenses becomes evidence in courts of law.Why would peaceful protestors be there during a riot and why would peace protestors stick around and watch and place themselves in harms way during a riot? If the protestors that WE ALL SAW (Whether you saw them or not and cared or not doesn't change what we saw or how we feel about what we saw either) were peaceful and opposed to violence then why were they there during the rioting and looting while buildings were burning and people were being hurt and the cops were getting injured left and right.
