Would not want to be a police officer in a city where the police were so disrespected and know the city does not have their back no matter what happens.

This is not what I said. My comment was that certain quarters insist that police are always right and the exact language used by Stu was that he would not want to be a policeman if the government did not have his back NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS.
BLM does not support rioting or looting or anarchy. Those are the same tropes that were used to attack John Lewis and MLK, the anti-war protestors during Vietnam and the Gulf Wars.
