Burning cars, shops, malls, have nothing to do with the
killing of the Minneapolis policeman of George Floyd two weeks ago. Looting were done for the purpose of
stealing 100%, zero relation with Floyd. The police officer and his buddies
were already arrested and charged, publicized, that is rule of law.
So all the looting and burning have zero justification, nada, zilch.
A good comment from a friend in my fb wall:

Big problem of the US, Europe. Criminal acts
of looting, burning are now implicitly or explicitly justified, even glorified as righteous acts by
many in media, NGOs, people themselves. They have accepted criminality as
justified.
The armed citizens of America who came out openly with
their guns as the protesters were passing by are correct in their action.
Private property is private property. Not collective or communal or socialized
property. Priv individuals are correct, justified, in protecting their cars and
shops from criminal looters and arsonists.
Most US media especially the big ones like NYT, CNN, WaPo, are not likely to call these looters as criminals and thieves. They are not to blame for the
stealing and burning that happened. For them there is one person to blame -
Trump.
Todd Foster: It's been building for years as these run
down, dysfunctional, Democrat inner cities excuses more and more anti-social
behavior. Yes, broken doors policing may sound bad to us that may lean
libertarian, but this is what you get when you start excusing bad behavior. You
have two elements. You have Marxist whites using the protests as an excuse to
destroy things. The welfare class blacks use the protests as an excuse to loot
things. So you have department stores looted of everything and things like book
stores burned to the ground. So like the Philippines, leftists are turning
violent in America. It's just what low class people do when they're not civilized
enough to live with the give and take of democracy. I do save plenty of blame
for the enablers, including every moron protesting and taking knees in the name
of a life long thug that met up with an incompetent cop.
