Yes, it is. He ditched the whole "I'm a REAL indian" platform and is now an "MIT PhD". OK, bud.
Signs supporting him are surprisingly plentiful in Western MA when I was over there about a week ago.
Looting<>Protesting

There are those who use turbulent times as cover for crimes. Those people are not protestors, they are criminals and opportunists. The Prudential Center is wise to take reasonable precautions against the possibility of criminal acts.
I tend to agree with that, KellyJMF.

Yet, not all protests end that way, nor do the troublemakers have to be in the majority to spoil a protest and make it unsafe for the people who are much more emotionally stable and self-controlled.
The best way to prevent people who are prone to law-breaking and criminal behavior is to have more organized protests, with security people (and I don't mean MAGA types, either), on hand to make sure that doesn't happen. Also, when protests occur, the people who organize such protests would do well to make the demonstrators move aside to allow emergency vehicles such as fire engines, ambulances, and police cars through, instead of forcing them to divert their routes and delaying their response time to serious illness/injury, a crime scene, especially assault or robbery, or a fire, because every second of every minute counts. For those who reject these arguments, I stand firmly by what I've said.
Deliberate conflation of words

protesting < > rioting/looting
immigrant < > illegal / undocumented immigrant
insurance < > healthcare
stock market < > economy
I'm sure there's more examples. But it's either ignorant, or deliberately misleading, if you use one word when you are talking about the other. This headline was about rioting/looting, and most of the comments are related to protesting. Why?
