> I think anyone who wrongs another is ...wrong [...] Is there something wrong with that?
No, but that is an overly simplistic reduction of the current situation in the United States, and any conversation around this situation requires an acknowledgement of its complete history and many nuances.
> Is asking about how people can condemn one version of malevolence and condon another wrong?
No, but what was the point of linking that unrelated article from 2014? Would you like me, a protestor, to condemn it? I condemn it. And I also condemn police brutality because it is so much more frequent, disproportionate, and violent.
> Are we past the point of trying to hold each other to higher standards?
No. Police must be held to a higher standard, period. They have badges and guns and are entrusted with a higher power.
> What percentage of the protesters / rioters would not be there if they had jobs to go to?
I don't know, I don't have that data. But from personal experience, I can tell you that people in this country are fed up with police forces that have no accountability. This is a natural consequence of allowing violent LEOs go unpunished for years, with no recourse for the innocent people being brutalized.
