My city had 100s of stores ransacked with groups of cars with 100s of people all working together. Say what you want about opportunists - riots happened.

What about it? Did it burn down? How many were injured?

It's interesting that people criticize the professional news media, then believe whatever they see on social media.
> riots happened
I expect some did, depending on the definition of riot, but that's not 'nationwide rioting' and a call to use the military to suppress the great majority of peaceful protests.
If they are harming others or causing significant material damage, that's another story, but even that is a matter of degree (especially the latter).
