I saw some videos where it seems to be wrong. Some people on the street were blocking the road in the street, and they were attacking a Trucker and the truck I think panic or something and just speed up it seems, and it when bad. They put themselves in a bad situation. That person who were climing on the Truck hitting the windows and i assume one of them were climbing the wheel or something and the truk took off and got him, he was trapped in the truckers wheel, while the truck kept driving away
I will see if I can find a video. I saw it from Facebook.

It have got worse, I think it dont help the movement by going out to loot a store, and violence with violence would get worse like that. Because it would look like they have no respect for the law at all and certainly no concept of community or civic responsibility. They gotta be smarter than that. To go out and protest, but to do it the right way, peaceful. It helps the movement like that more.
Here is a video of Police Forces Moves in. Its cray cray

White supremacists trying to discredit the protesters

This is not a white supremacist thing. In fact many of the protesters are white also. American whites and Hispanics with blacks.
Listen, the problem here is not the ones going out to protest...There is nothing wrong with going to protest about something. But the right way. Not like this. Whats wrong Its the ones who are looting and destroyed the stores everywhere and also attacking police man, who have nothing to do with that one bad cop. Those people who are doing this are also blocking streets and attacking cars.

I was in the protest in Orange County, I was in Santa Ana and it didnt get out of hand like in other areas, but I did see how they did loot Smart and Final store (I think) and they were all a bunch of kids
I just feel bad for brown and black businesses who are being destroyed, it takes black and brown businesses years to establish a business and getting a loan approved, so all of this breaks my heart seeing how their businesses were destroyed
reminds me of the Rodney King riot in L.A years ago
we have to do better, destroying our own communities is not the answer, it really pisses me off
we have a small percentage of our communities who are business owners, and we do this to our own? nah, that doesnt sit right with me

Yea brah I am against these people who are doing this. Indeed that is not the answer, its the wrong answer. It effect us in the long run. And it is not a good image and it also dont help the movement. I know some guys who were also in the protest and said the same as you. This anti white and anti cop is trash also. This is the united states of America. We should work together and not against each other. But yea there some who are giving a wrong look for the movement.
There is American whites, Hispanics and blacks who are in the protest. But like you said there is some who when in the places of protest but are there to looting and destroying things. Cray cray

My opinion on what is happening now ... This is getting out of control now. It is getting worse. Really. This does not help but affect us all in one way or another, in the community-city. And we were slowly coming out of the quarantine..Now this. It doesn't help the protest movement by going out to loot a store, and violence with violence, it makes it worse. There is nothing wrong with going out and protesting, but doing it the right, peaceful way. This is terrible.

The people doing the looting are most white supremacists trying to make the protesters look bad... they want to start a race war.
