Maybe the protesters just need to listen to Killer Mike:
Drop everything and watch Killer Mike's speech in Atlanta tonight. I don't agree with him on all of his politics, but that doesn't matter tonight. He's 100% right about how to handle protesting and how to change the system… and it isn't burning your city to the ground. pic.twitter.com/VzDNMTM0wH

CNN spent the last 48 hours suggesting the destruction of private property was a legitimate form of protest.

Hilarious.
