“I don’t know if most rioters are white, but if they are, maybe it’s because they do not fear being beaten by cops.”
That is one assumption, another might be that they are using these times as a means to do what they want to do, which is loot and riot.
In my area, there were only peaceful protests and gatherings, it was nice and unifying. No stealing, no looting, no negativity.
The looting and rioting obscures whatever positive and constructive message there, it makes people discount the rallies and have a very negative view on all of this.
I personally have not seen anything reported that would indicate that the black people are being beaten by cops any more than white people, not during these rallies and not in general.
