True, but they do themselves no long term good as is evidenced by years of one riot after another, destroying one community after another, and nothing changes for the better. Every time this happens it gives ammunition to the police argument saying, see what we're dealing with, these people are wildly violent so we must use this excessive force. They can protest, shutdown roads and access to buildings, get in the face of political leadership, but when they start this large scale violence then whatever support they may have goes away by in large.
