I think that when you send 40 million people into unemployment you have enough pissed off people and this incident was the catalyst! I get why people are angry it’s horrible and thoughts and prayers and twitter protests don’t take anyone to task for their crimes that’s just virtue signaling but these riots distract from the message of justice which is what they should be after
