The positive thing here, despite the looting and general lunacy of the event, is that there is a significant amount of people protesting the killing of an unarmed civilian. Despite your philosophical and moral stance people standing up to the police in such a way has to be better than doing nothing and turning a blind eye. It lets everyone in the country know that you can stand up to the police and that abuse of power is unacceptable, whether you agree with their methodologies or not.
