BLM riots cost 1.5 billion, and took 50 lives, not to mention the massive spread of COVID.
fwiw they cost endless billions.
That number that they settled on was for insured claims in one city for the one summer in an Axios article.
I maybe missed it-
https://www.axios.com/2020/09/16/riots-cost-property-damage
it is insured claims only.
while reality is much of the damage was to the uninsured.
Yet, I am almost positive that Axios found that Minneapolis-St Paul had $1billion alone in just insured claims.
(ofc that document is no longer to be found)
