I don't understand the people who say "It's never happened here, so what's the protest for?". People have a right to protest anything they want, wherever they want. It's a real issue, not just people being petty. As long as it isn't violent, no one should have a problem with it.
this riot/protest situation is the same as a child being bullied at school. you are silent while they are being mistreated but upset when they finally snap back. had u spoke up while they were being mistreated they wouldn’t have had to snap back. silence equals complicity.
