Daniel Greenfield over at Sultan Knish has it 100% right in this piece. What he says could be easily applied to the long past events of Ferguson, Missouri in 2014 and to many events since then. "Black lives matter" protests can often be more correctly referred to as riots. It's hard to focus on supposedly "peaceful" protestors when nearly every major protest devolves into rock throwing, window breaking and car burning.
Whether you agree with the BLM crowd or not, can we at least use proper language? Riots are riots, even if you have some "peaceful" protestors mixed in.
