I posted a link a bit above, a news station basically cross referenced a bunch of people arrested with voter records and found that lots either hadn't voted, or weren't registered to vote.
So it definitely is credible. Now it's one example which doesn't mean it is representative. It's also a record of people arrested, which by definition is a self-selecting subset of the protesters (selected by doing something worthy of being arrested for).
It could just be that people who are likely to get arrested are also more likely to attend a protest for the purpose of doing arrest-worthy things rather than attending because they feel strongly one way or the other.
Personally I think every rioter is a false flag operation paid for by rich republicans to discredit the real protesters.
