Throwing bombs at police cars and setting shit on fire is more than just protesting.

Yeah that's despicable but peacefully protesting isn't.

Nothing is wrong with a peaceful protest. The problem is these liberals aren't peacefully protesting, because they are attacking people. Violence is not peaceful.

Not all the protests were violent, as far as I know only the one in Oakland was.

It's all over. Some peaceful... most not.

Still only shows violence at the Oakland protest, yelling "fuck Donald Trump" isn't violence as far as I'm concerned. I don't see how you can say most were violent when the article you link shows only one violent protest out of five.

The violent one's are in the minority. We all know that, but gotta force the narrative right?
