While the vast majority of the anti-police brutality protests in recent weeks in the U.S. have been peaceful, a lot of attention has been focused on a small number of people who have resorted to looting and property damage. Though some have pointed to the violence as a reason to dismiss the protests altogether, others argue that the violence is understandable and is the product of genuine rage at the system.
