I've already debunked the "93% peaceful" nonsense, because that counts 5-man protests as equivalent to 60,000-person protests. There were a few protests in my area which were peaceful. Never did I feel threatened, because these were just neighborhood people who got together from Facebook or whatever, and held up BLM signs. This was far different than the nasty shit happening at the large protests.

You're just living in a world of pure delusion if you don't think these protests were violent as a rule.
You can compare them to LA riots if you want. I already did that some months ago. Whatever has happened in the last 6 months all over the country with more than 10x protesters is still nothing compared to those 5 days in 92.

And you haven't debunked shit. There's already enough studies about this, you just choose to ignore those and instead rely on milkshake Andy.
Funny you mention the LA riots, which I actually lived through (as an adult).

Look how this was covered by the 1992 mainstream media:




Harsh condemnation by both the reporter and the black people they interviewed. No excuses made for them. No downplaying. No blaming it on white supremacists. No claims that it's just a big exaggeration by right wingers.

Just honest reporting and deserved scorn for the criminals doing it.

I bet you can't find one report about the 2020 riots (except from the right) with such a tone.

Why do you think that is? Could it be that the modern left has gone insane, and they think it's blasphemy to ever criticize anyone from a "victim" class (or woke white people from their own side)?
