I don't think these riots and looting are about George Floyd. Are there people protesting against the police for his death? Yep. I also believe ANTIFA is out there escalating conflicts. But I believe the vast majority of what you see is unemployed, broke, people. I don't think the government wants you to see that side of it. Unemployment is the highest it has been since the great depression. Some places higher than the great depression. The $1200 checks dried up long ago. The food banks are wiped out. There are still shortages at grocery stores.
The government doesn't want to look like they shut down an entire nation's economy for the threat of a weak pandemic. At the same time they have seen the error of their ways and are trying to get the economy back going even though we haven't reached the peak of the pandemic. So things start to melt down violently in the cities and what do they do? Develop this narrative about a video of police brutality towards a black man. Now they get to blame all of this on a cop instead of taking the blame for stupid, AND ILLEGAL, policies they forced on us.
You don't think they would do this????? They did it before. Don't you remember Benghazi? They cooked up a narrative that a youtube video set all that off. They even scooped up the guy that made it and put him in jail. When in reality the failed policies of Obama and Hillary in the middle east destroyed years of work and trillions of dollars that the US had invested in those nations over there to strengthen the us.
