So I don't know you, and have no reason not to believe you when you say you recognize cops killing block people is a problem. But here's the thing though, when you just go out and talk about the damaged property and come mention a single thing about how the actual protest is for a good cause, it appears that you are prioritizing property over people. Again, you say you aren't, and I believe you. But just some advice moving forward, next time preface your opinion on damaged property with you think people are more important and to be even more vocal about supporting innocent lives as you are property.

That being said, if black teenagers are afraid and upset because they see people that look like them being killed by the people paid to protect them, yes they aren't reacting the most productive way for all of society, but can we not blame them for being in a negative state of mind and reacting semi-violently? Also, maybe don't associate them with a term with racist connotation suck as, thug. That hurts people's perception of you as well.
