My point stands. Owing to their tribal allegiances, the news outlets I cited are not using the word ‘riot’. The difference between ‘protests’ and ‘riots’ should be the behaviour of the crowd, not how sympathetic the news source is to their cause. But those are the times we live in.

Here's an article from The Globe & Mail from two days ago:

Here's an article from The New York Times from 15 hours ago:
Amid Riots and a Pandemic, Church Attendance Resumes in ‘a Very Broken World’
I'm not going to go through all your sources you claim aren't using the term riot, but needless to say, you're wrong.
