Political violence is sometimes justified. Just hard to see how it is in this case. If Derek Chauvin is acquitted this week. There's a good chance he will be at least partially, based on the trial evidence of drugs and heart disease being the main cause of Floyd's death. If so, this whole incident, will be the ultimate example of misleading video, amplified by lying journalists, for clicks and violence for political gain. As soon as one side is allowed to use violence to achieve political goals, what is to prevent the other side in acting the same way. It will be interesting to see how Biden will react when the shoe is on the other foot.
