I hope he realizes that a lot of burning and destruction was instigated by right-wing terrorists.

He apologized for not having more advice, but what he said was excellent, imo.

I'd think if you appreciated the content, you'd want to call more attention to it. Not everyone is seeing everything on DU at the same time...

1st time I've seen the video, and I'm glad Catwoman posted it, otherwise I might not have heard him speak so eloquently with heartfelt fervor.

It was an excellent video which I recommended when posted previously.

I guess I was just in a pissy mood after participating in a peaceful and meaningful protest on Friday and then have everything turn to shit by instigators later that night and last night.

I also liked Trevor Noah's tweet in response. He said:

"We've seen this before in South Africa. Beware of agitators and instigators who use legitimate protests to ignite chaos between protestors and police."

Those protests turn bad after dark for a reason. The anarchists were organized and mobile. After dark in Minnesota cars without license plates were stopped and the occupants vacated the cars and ran. The cars had loads of rocks, weapons that could be used for bashing, etc. The cars in many cases were stolen. In order to catch these bad actors, it is necessary for legitimate protesters to follow curfews so law enforcement has a better chance of locating and arresting these anarchists. That is all.
