> supported by major political parties

Why plural? There's only one major party in the US that did not condemn the violent riots and looting. “They’re not gonna stop. And they should not.” -- Kamala Harris, VP candidate



Was she referring to protesting or rioting, or do you think the two are inseparable?

Edit: never mind, I did my own googling. Looks like Kamala Harris did indeed condemn the rioters:

And the quote above was indeed referring to protesting, not rioting:

> do you think the two are inseparable?

Yes, evidently, unless you arrest and prosecute the rioters and looters, which is something "progressive" DAs refuse to do.

> did indeed condemn the rioters

If you read the article, you will see that she did not. She said that they "should not be confised" with protesters, but did not condemn them explicitly. Nor could she condemn, because the official democratic narrative is that the protests are "fiery but peaceful", which they're anything but.


A third party (libertarian) candidate also supported BLM and the riots.
