< br />As soon as the riots, looting, and arson began in Minneapolis, so to did something else: justification. Politicians and media pundits from the left -- both black AND white -- began to justify the violence as if this community had not other option...as if they couldn't control themselves to react in any other way. But, in reality, destroying cities (like what happened in Ferguson years ago), does nothing to bring justice for George Floyd, and it does nothing to enact positive change moving forward.
