I've twice been in riots in the past and I can honestly say I never targeted one single individual who wasn't posing a threat to myself, a colleague, any individual or piece of property.

It shouldn't be hard to identify those responsible but there has to be a will there by the authorities

(I haven't tried Edge yet)

The is a saying

the straw that broke the camel's back.

To use this as some kind of metaphor

The Camel is USA the straw who are loaded on this camel is all the problems which have been luring in the society for years.

The killing of George Floyd was the straw that...

I interpret this demonstration and riot as a common denominator of all the problems the American citizen is struggling with

White House fortifies its perimeter as if it were the Alamo, extending the barriers and fences outward further at least twice. A "president" connecting to his people... And free of any instincts cautioning him, Trump in words again today has spilled oil into the fire. This man's head is so deeply stuck in its mad mind, it will never find back into the normal world again.

Run, rabbit, run,
dig that hole, forget the sun,
and when at least the work is done,
don't sit down, its time to dig another one.
For long you live, and high you fly,
but only if you ride the tide,
and balanced on the biggest wave
you race towards an early grave.

The elderly man in the video is in the hospital in serious condition but he is alive. Hopefully with good hospital care, he will be alright.
