Nobody who is sane is suggesting that it is ok to steal, break windows or assault people and otherwise destroy public or private property. I am sue that whatever tv coverage of these protests you are watching is focusing on the small minority of those destroying and stealing and ignoring the millions of boring peaceful protestors. If it bleeds, it leads. Certain media outlets are reporting on scenes of protesters marching arm in arm with policemen and in some cases, police chiefs. Others are trying to whip up hate by showing the looters or burners. Take notice of which outlets are focusing on each. That could be telling.
