I dont live in america but in 2011 we had some riots in the uk too for a similar reason. I would ordinarily not support violence that endangers life, but peaceful protests dont work. It isnt right that Black people should need to fear for their safety every single day because the system makes them threats. The reality is, property is replaceable but black lives arent. The places they're burning can be rebuilt, the lives of all the people murdered because of their skin colour cant be mended. If this is what it takes for people to hear them and hold the handful of cops who dont value black lives accountable then I'm all for it.
