Perhaps you should go down to Lake and class-splain to the protesters their poor object choice.
I'm all for it if they use rocket launchers on the banking district, but that's not how this works. If your thesis is riots are imprecise, well, yeah. People aren't going to stop having them under circumstances in which no legal remedy is possible. Robert K. Merton was on to that by 1955.
We're watching the physics of jamming people into a ghetto and then crushing them. Eventually they do something. It's not to be celebrated or vilified, it just is the inevitable output unless we change the inputs.
A drowning man lashes out. That's what "I can't breath!" means. It's not going to wind up a graduate seminar in a quiet room, it's going to be awful.
