I think anyone breathing, and with an IQ over 75 knows it is outside agitators causing the problems.
Unfortunately, I've seen people lumping everyone together. There's still some that aren't figuring it out.

We had to give up our rights to peacefully assemble, to go to work, to pursue happiness for nearly 3 months. Surely some can give up the right to protest for a week for the greater good...
I seem to have seen a shit ton of people protesting just a few weeks ago.

Do you think postponing the protests for a week will be for the greater good?
Yes, people were protesting a few weeks ago. They were called dangerous, terrorists, and some other names. I don't recall any windows being broken, stores looted, or people actually killed in those protests, though. So, yeah, I think it would be for the greater good of society if there was a way to round up all the anarchists and people just wreaking havoc for the hell of it. If postponing the actual protests would do that, I would be all for it.
lol. How exactly do you "postpone" a protest?

For those who've watched over the past several years especially, the M.O. of these agitators right down to how they dress and behave, this was no shock. THIS is what these agitators want....division, confusion, and more anger.

There is no "deafening silence." There is a country (many of us) in utter dismay and disgust at what has happened to what should be messages taken seriously from these protesters but instead, are taking notice at the people hurt, businesses destroyed, cars and buildings vandalized and/or set on fire...and so on.

When you generalize, you do more harm than good.
You're quite delusional if you think that all of the protesters are 'good people'. Mix those who are protesting peacefully with anarchists, and mob mentality can take over.

Facebook. I'm sure that's how word got out all over the country so people would know where to go. It's done all of the time like for flash mobs.

"WASHINGTON (AP) — As protests over the death of George Floyd grow in cities across the U.S., government officials have been warning of the “outsiders” -- groups of organized rioters they say are flooding into major cities not to call for justice but to cause destruction.

But the state and federal officials have offered differing assessments of who the outsiders are. They’ve blamed left-wing extremists, far-right white nationalists and even suggested the involvement of drug cartels. These leaders have offered little evidence to back up those claims, and the chaos of the protests makes verifying identities and motives exceedingly difficult."
