Reason: Why Violent Protests Backfire

 

[VIDEO] I'm glad to hear that due to a variety of factors the protests riots are starting to cool off. Tim Pool noted that the riots in Portland are beginning to slow down a general trend because the Oregon State Police was federally deputized last month. Although let's also note that there are some major forest fires happening on the west coast and I'm sure that's slowing down some activities out west.

If you follow any of the unrest you might have heard an infamous Dr. Martin Luther King quote "A riot is the language of the unheard". You might get the idea that Dr. King might understand what the rioting is all about. However, what gets lost is that Dr. King is an adherent to non-violent protest. Of course his philosophy on that is what I somewhat learned when I was still at Morehouse.
