“These protestors are peacefully burning, looting, beating, and stealing!” - the media when forced to even talk about the violence.
“Show me where they have to be polite!” - Fredo Cuomo when cornered on the violence.
After that, they doubled down on how peaceful the looting, burning, and beating was.

Not covered because ‘the press’ is the butt boy of the democrat party.

Mostly peaceful protests, riots and burnings.

Another word redefined by the left is the word peaceful.

Tracey has a point. Media do avoid showing how much damage was done. Here’s a citizen video of looted and boarded-up businesses in midtown Manhattan. The danage is far more extensive than shown in media reports.

Build reeducation camps for them. Have the Army turn them into potential Stepford wives and husbands, free from drugs. Those who refuse to graduate can go to concentration camps. ;)

One would think the Rev. MLK Jr. riots were more widespread & destructive. 110 cities IIRC.

One photo showed a boarded up store that said, “Minority Owned”.

So what? The rioters ignore that kind of sign, but if the owner had added “Minority Owned, Smith & Wesson Protected”, they might have to worry so much.

My house would say, “Protected by ADT (big deal), and my boys, Smith, Wesson, Ruger, Colt, and Remington”.

I think even the stupidest leftist would get that message, in spades, and if not, in lead.

When I asked my son if he had any .22 cal tincan plunking ammo, he didn’t say, how many rounds do you want. He said, how many hundreds of pounds do you want. I raised him right.

"The scale of it is crazy. But journalists apparently don't want to be perceived as 'discrediting the movement' or whatever."

Because journalists are supposed to be political activists first and foremost.

Every one should look at the original articles and photos and share them.

The Communists among us must really believe this is the right time to launch their revolution. We should use it as a way to arrest them using RICO.

My local upscale mall in Bellevue, WA, just reopened yesterday.

I forget the exact date it was looted - feels like about three weeks ago.

Macy's must have worked overtime to get back up - everything on the main floor looked pretty normal, except for the jewelry section, which is shrouded in opaque plastic. They had expensive watches in the area I was familiar with - I do not know what they sold in the other jewelry sections.

The largest cell phone store in the mall (Verizon?) was still closed. They had window exposure to the sidewalk and got completely destroyed in the riot.

Champs Sports - which sells “urban” shoes and clothing styles - got annihilated during the riot and is still closed.

One of the local jewelry stores is still boarded up.

I walked right by the Amazon flagship store, got distracted, and completely forgot to check if it was open.

Tiffany is open, but they are only allowing small numbers of customers inside.

Both Apple and Microsoft have flagship stores in the mall.

Apple looked like it was open, but it is on the second floor, and I could not see inside.

Microsoft is still boarded up. Last week, Microsoft announced it would close all of its retail stores and go 100% online. But their Bellevue Mall store - which is the closest to the Redmond main campus - has big “Welcome Back” signs on its exterior, so maybe the Bellevue store is being preserved?

Nordstrom’s first floor got annihilated. Women's shoes and cosmetics. Very, very expensive. At least half the shoes on display are missing. And, almost every cosmetic display case is empty.

Michael Kors was annihilated - it is still boarded up.

Tesla has a showroom in the Mall. It looked undamaged. However, access to the cars used to be unlimited. Today, they have them fenced in, and you can only "visit" each car with a sales person.

"[Chicago Police] officer mentioned to me being shocked at how little media coverage the riots in these neighborhoods received -- an opinion locals tend to agree with," Tracey said while touring Chicago the other day. "The scale of it is crazy. But journalists apparently don't want to be perceived as 'discrediting the movement' or whatever."

The 'press' is committing suicide - they're not stupid enough to do this by accident.
