The majority of George Floyd protesters were not rioting. Your biased media consumption is showing.

Blocking streets & highways, spraying graffiti, smashing windows, screaming at patrons eating dinner outside and burning police cars is rioting.

I don't remember them doing much else. Do you, libtard?

Liar. Blocking streets and preventing people from getting to work, medical appointments and their kids is not "peaceful."

I'm just sorry they didn't stand in front of my car because I would have thoroughly enjoyed providing each of them with permanent road rash.

Your source is bullshit. Suggesting Rayshard Brooks and Jacob Blake were "unarmed" is factually inaccurate. I don't know what's worse... that you don't bother to check your sources or you deliberately provide those that lie.

After 40 minutes of calm questioning and guided sobriety tests, the encounter veered abruptly toward violence when the officers moved to arrest Mr. Brooks. Mr. Brooks hit one of the officers, grabbed the other’s Taser, fired it and took off running. One of the officers, Garrett Rolfe, discharged his own Taser and reached for his 9-millimeter Glock handgun as Mr. Brooks turned and discharged the stolen Taser again. Mr. Rolfe fired, striking Mr. Brooks twice in the back.

In July, a warrant was issued for Mr. Blake’s arrest on charges of third-degree sexual assault, criminal trespass and disorderly conduct. On Aug. 23, the woman who had filed the complaint that led to those charges called 911 to report that Mr. Blake was at her home, according to interviews and records.​

State officials have said that police officers responded to what they described as a domestic complaint and tried to arrest Mr. Blake.
Before the police shot Mr. Blake, officers twice tried to use a Taser on him, state officials said. They also said that Mr. Blake had admitted that he had a knife, which was later found on the driver’s side floorboard of Mr. Blake’s car. There were no other weapons in the vehicle.
