Why are lawful protests wrong? Only when they become violent should the law step in and arrest the guilty. It doesn't matter if it's the local police on Portland or the DCPD arresting the Insurrectionists for multiple felonies. The Law demands Justice or we should get rid of the law.

BLM did not burn cities. It was the criminal opportunist that burned cities and looted businesses. BLM condemned the violence and looting.
“But, as an organization, Tendaji said BLM Chicago does not condone looting.
“There was definitely some misspeak, some things missaid in the press recently from one of our folks that may have sounded like support for or condoning looting,” Tendaji said. “Organizationally, we certainly don’t have anything to do with — or condone — illegal activity that, you know, really frightens and, quite frankly, pisses off a lot of Black folks.”

“In part of a June 1 internal intelligence assessment of the protests seen by Reuters, U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials said most of the violence appears to have been driven by opportunists.”

BLM acted as legitimate legal protesters until the cops waded in causing the violence. Some people who think they can control themselves in the face of incredible police violence discover that cannot, Other people who were just hanging around saw a chance to take things and act up.
Before a demonstration happens, the organizers spend time telling the people what to expect and how to handle it. They tell them not to cross the lines. They preach non-violence.
The police also have a meeting. That is not what they are told.
