Who is handing them a lit match? Because someone is "p.o." is not a legal defense for a criminal act.
Typical left wing talking points.

Many of the actual protests are intended to be peaceful. However in some of these protests, white supremacists show up and start trouble ON PURPOSE and actually are setting fires. Literal fires. As in - burning down buildings. And then ducking away so it appears that it's the local black citizenship who are causing it.
SOME of this destruction is being done by black folks. But SOME of it is not - and is being done on purpose to create chaos and cast blame on people who weren't responsible for it at all.
Like the twitter account that was shut down (see that post somewhere above mine with the link to the CBS article). The account was spewing hatred and pretending to be Antifa but it was, in fact, white nationalists behind the account. Doing it on purpose. Making it look as though anti-fascists are the cause of it. When they had nothing to do with it at all.
That is what is going on all over the country. There's a lot being pointed at anti-fascists, as though they're some kind of organized military group. Which - they not only aren't, but they are actually against. That's the whole point of their existence. They are AGAINST organized authority. That's what Antifa means. Anti...Fascist.
It's basically what MOST Americans already are, by default. Unless you embrace fascism - you are either against it, or you don't care if this country becomes a dictatorship.
