This is exactly what the Hong Kong protesters do to provocateurs, except they strip them of identifying information and show it to the camera to get it documented before returning it.

who are destroying property, the best the to do is to leave that area. Maybe others will come along who want to protest nonviolently.

for them to get away with their tactics cleanly every time. There are too many cell phone cameras for the provocateurs to operate with impunity.

GOOD.

They are furthering the right wing / white supremacy agenda. At the very least they are riding on their white privilege, which includes knowingly or unknowingly hurting people of color.

As a half hispanic / half asian, I have to say: if there was a hell, much of the white population would end up in it. We should be moving beyond this nations sinful past and make a country that would be truly envied around the world rather than maintain a country that is nothing more than a bunch of bullshit, sin and evil.
