Now you're giving us a solution to the problem. It's not a demonstration with looting and damaging private businesses....many owners of the same color as the rioters doing most of the damage.

I have mentioned this before, but, there have been three distinct groups of individuals involved in these protests/demonstrations/riots ...

1) Conscientious peaceful protesters who truly wish for change,

2) organized individuals promoting violence for self-glorification, headline grabbing, or other various reasons,

3) and then those that have no real interest or feelings about "the cause" at all and are only in it for the merchandise or the thrill of destruction.

I feel that first group makes up 90% or more of the individuals out on the streets. Maybe seven or eight percent make up that third group. It is the small number in the second group that gives the first group a bad name and enables the third group.
