The problem is that the protests are already extremely peaceful… Until the police show up and start blasting.
The media instead will take the 3 pictures of the Waymo on fire and plaster it on the front page everywhere to pretend the protests are extremely violent riots and give a pretense to send in the police which starts blasting.
They’ll do that if there is trash on the ground and claim it’s looting. They’ll do that if anything catches on fire and call it a riot.
Dropping rocks, lime scooters, and molotovs on police cars parked under an overpass doesn’t need any sensationalism to amplify AND it gives the police a great reason to start blasting.

Not to mention cop cars and other images from the past. Pure yellow journalism.
