Frank, your shrill histrionics ain't benefitting the perception of you being a poster with gravitas or thoughtful opinions. Nor one with an understanding of due diligence, and homework.
Settle down. Calm your hysteria. It ain't a good look for your avatar.
Trust me.
"Countless numbers of cities looted".....??? Partner, pour yourself some chardonnay and breathe slowly. Your discombobulation over the Floyd demonstrations makes ALL QAnon'ers and MAGA's look bad. Don't do that. You have a responsibility to represent your kind more favorably.
So, let's try to rehabilitate your avatar with some correctives. We'll just use Wicki to kick it off. K?

First, Google is your friend, and "2,000" cities hosting demonstrations ain't "countless".
Reported:
"Protests quickly spread nationwide and to over 2,000 cities and towns in over 60 countries in support of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement.[22][23][24] Polls in the summer of 2020 estimated that between 15 million and 26 million people had participated at some point in the demonstrations in the United States, making the protests the largest in U.S. history.[25][26][27]
While the majority of protests were peaceful,[28] demonstrations in some cities escalated into riots, looting,[29] and street skirmishes with police and counter-protesters. Some police responded to protests with instances of violence, including against reporters.[30][31][32] At least 200 cities in the U.S. had imposed curfews by early June 2020........ By the end of June 2020, at least 14,000 people had been arrested.[4][38][39] By June 2020, more than 19 people had died in relation to the unrest. A report from the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project estimated that between May 26 and August 22, 93% of individual protests were "peaceful and nondestructive"[40][41] and research from the Nonviolent Action Lab and Crowd Counting Consortium estimated that by the end of June, 96.3% of 7,305 demonstrations involved no injuries and no property damage.[42] However, arson, vandalism, and looting that occurred between May 26 and June 8 caused approximately $1–2 billion in insured damages nationally, the highest recorded damage from civil disorder in U.S. history........
The protests precipitated a worldwide debate on policing and racial injustice that has led to numerous legislative proposals on federal, state, and municipal levels in the U.S. intended to combat police misconduct, systemic racism, qualified immunity and police brutality.[44][45]"

So, Frank, be at peace. You are scaring your cats.
