Dear Americans,

I am not an American. Were the Floyd protests anywhere near as chaotic as they were portrayed in the press? I recall hearing that most protests were nonviolent, just slightly property-damaging. Thanks!

Sincerely, rambling_lunatic

    The protest generally became violent after the cops did.

      Still not even true, the protestors were much more effective and interested in de-escalation than the police
