    like a mayor of one of the impacted cities said: “we only talk about them when they burn stuff. they are never invited to talk about this, because it previously happened. This time, someone filmed this, and it countered what the cops were saying.”

      we only talk about them when they burn stuff

      Did I say not to burn stuff? Or did I say to burn other stuff?

      This time, someone filmed this, and it countered what the cops were saying

      I have no context for this but how did riots help them to film?

        It’s just easier to burn stuff close to where you live i guess.

        What i meant is that someone filmed the murder. The cops were already spinning this like they killed a dangerous criminal. Without the video, this would have been buried, and it already happened.
