Probably people that use the riots as a way to do stuff like steal, maybe they can be like "It's okay because it's for the riot's cause". Sadly it leads to small businesses like this being screwed over, and makes the protesters who aren't looting and focusing on wanting change look bad.

Protests start for noble reasons. Riots are riots.

They overshadow any good the protest could do.

A riot is not a protest

u/Secret-Put-4525 5h ago

The riot wouldn't happen without the protest.

The spiral of violence. People start peacfully, government uses police, people get riled up, police uses more force.

Both sides suffer in the end. Two kids 15 and 17 lost their hands to blending granates thrown by police while hundrets of merchants lost their lifelyhood.

I am not religious but this is an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Always someone blaming the police.

When two kids lose their hands by granates thrown by police who else should I blame? I also blame the kids for distructing shops.

Everyone lost in the end.

These kids should not be on this riot, to begin with.

In normal country they would be dealt using tanks.

When no one stand up for you what would you do?

I don't like what it has turned into, but the violence came from BOTH sides and reacted like mentos and cola.

The order must be prevailed, the future must be secured at all costs.

While i am getting a great pleasure when i look how thing went to shit in France. This whole riot will do nothing positive to France, it will only make the longstanding issues of debt loop more severe.

Simple: Don’t pick up a grenade, don’t lose a hand.

And Police always doing something they should be blamed for. Sucks to suck.

u/Feeling_Loquat8499 5h ago

This looting is definitely not happening because the police are being TOO forceful lmao

u/FriendshipNo1440 5h ago

Booming away the hands of kids is not forceful to you? Okay then...

Not everyone shows up to a protest to protest a lot of them show up because it seems exciting and wind up going nuts

I think the problem in your logic is that protesting in the streets is an illogical act at its base. Annoying the general public to get your way is a pretty quick path to not getting what you want.
