Why is youtube suggesting aggressive actions against protestors?

Have we forgotten about the LA riots?

I would not stop for protestors either.

I haven't. People were justified in their anger, and let that anger out in the way they could. That's why you shouldn't give people a reason to be justifiably angry and instead meet the needs of the people without abusing them. The acquittal of those cops told people that the law didn't apply to law enforcement. If the law doesn't apply equally, why should it be viewed as anything other than tyranny?

Ah, because every protest results in mobs attacking people and breaking things! Nice generalization there.
