Many of these "protesters" have felony convictions. They had them prior to "protesting". Every time one of them makes the news, either because they were killed during a riot or they were arrested for some kind of federal offense, we law-abiding people people get to find out what scum was killed or arrested. They usually fit the mold of wife-beater, rapist, heroin user, armed robber, et al. Then, the liberal media fawns over them and calls them "true heroes". It's as if the media supports rapists and people who beat their spouse instead of productive, law-abiding members of society.
