I specifically said riots. In fact, more than once I have made the very important distinction between the protests and riots.
Those first few days, yes, there were plenty of peaceful protests, but by nightfall, there was damn little.
I haven't been watching much news of it the last few days, but from what I have read, there is becoming more protest and less destruction. I hope that is true. It's a longer road, but it'll get us there, whereas destruction and chaos will not.

The antifa crowd slinked into the shadows in most areas once they realized that crossing state lines to instigate is a federal crime. They're used to operating in cities where the local government doesn't have the spine (or the support) to charge them.

I've watched extensive footage most every night. The rioting and looting and property destruction have all significantly decreased since a week ago today. Not to say it isn't still occurring in some cities, but it seems to be very isolated.
I didn't watch much this weekend, so not sure if there was any this weekend.
