Some of the rioters were part of the Black Lives Matter movement, as evident by photographs of rioters wearing their shirts. Don't get me wrong, I believe there are many well-intended people within the Black Lives Matter movement. Therefore, it is unsettling to me when I see black-on-black crime go by unnoticed in the Black Lives Matter movement. I do feel that many of those within the Black Lives Matter movement are going to unnecessary and dangerous lengths. I find an action like this hypocritical, as I'm sure Black Lives Matter members wouldn't want someone to make a generalization about black people.
