I dont understand what people expect the police to do.

When rocks/projectiles are thrown and people are looting and lighting businesses on fire who had nothing too do with this?

Are they just supposed to cheer them on?

When a cop car is surrounded by people hitting it with baseball bats and smashing its windows; by people who unrightfully want them dead what is their suggested course of action? allow themselves to be killed?

I don't feel bad at all for the rioters disobeying curfews getting gassed or hit by rubber bullets. I feel bad for the 99% of cops who are under attack(many of whom are not white) trying to stop cities their cities being destroyed by criminals
