    Chances are, the ones doing all the destruction are among the 40% of people who choose not to vote.
    They don't want to participate in government - they only want to destroy things that other people have built.

    Some people are crazy. Some are opportunists. Some just hate government.  

    It should not be allowed. Lock it down.

    WTF are people doing all over the world? Unfortunately, the US is not alone and it's nothing new.

    All countries need systemic change.

    Education, from kindergarten up, needs a syllabus that teaches and
    demonstrates that no race is superior to any other,
    no race has any right to superiority,
    and it's impossible to predict the abilities or attitudes of anyone based on how they look.

    Police need to understand they they are not above the law;
    every arrested person deserves to be treated as with respect irrespective of race,
    and treated as innocent until proven guilty.
    Police must be held to higher standards than everyone else;
    they don't deserve respect unless they systematically and routinely behave with honour and integrity.

    Law, medicine - every system in every country needs legislation and independent bodies to ensure equality of treatment of people irrespective of race and socioeconomic position.

    There's a small amount of real protesters. Unfortunately, they're outnumbered by a large crowd of opportunist thugs who just want to be a part of an angry mob, who are only out to steal and destroy.

      Human beings populate the entire world, and while the current events taking place today in my country, the USA, are devastatingly bad, it’s not as if the rest of the world can only be viewed with rose-coloured glasses. There are places and cultures that routinely practice female genital mutilation, mercy killings, police brutality, infanticide, caste systems, forced child labor, child soldiers, rampant sanctioned corruption, dictatorships, class-based denials of opportunities, modern-day slavery, tribal warfare, genocide, religious persecution, apartheid, etc.

      I am in no way attempting to excuse or sugarcoat or cover up the negativity that is taking place in the USA. I detest the racism and discrimination and inequality and hatred and killings and looting and vandalism and backward behavior that is happening here. All of it is wrong, and it sheds a very ugly image of Americans as a people for all the world to see this. Keep in mind that the advent of technology helps spread images in real time all over the world, yet just 50 or 75 or 150 or more years ago, all of these same insulting practices were being done without immediate knowledge of them being broadcast. Lynchings and race riots and KKK activity and daily acts of racism by everyday citizens and the government alike have long been realities here.   I am merely stating that to express shock and amazement, while valid, does not mean places other than the US are sin-free.
