    No, the reason is because the right wingers are smart enough to not get caught.

    Prove me wrong.

    Show me all the right wing agitators that have been caught.

    Agent provocateurs?

    Bound to happen.

    But how much was done? Factually?

    Sounds like you want to blame all on a radical right? A small group of nuts.

    It doesn't take much to send the leftist lunatics on a rampage.

    A single right winger can light the fuse that send thousands of them on a rampage.

    They're easily manipulated, and dumb as stumps.

    Nope, they're too crafty and wiley. They were never caught.

    If it wasn't for the right wing agitators, none of the riots would've happened. Not a single one.

    The right wing has orchestrated the entire thing, and pinned it on the leftist riot rat nitwits.

    Right wing masterminds.

    Yeah, that "alternate facts' bullshit ain't gonna fly... [​IMG]

    The boogaloo movement is gaining momentum. Who are the boogaloo 'bois' and what do they want?

    The "boogaloo" movement – named for a 1980s breakdancing movie and characterized by members who carry weapons and wear Hawaiian shirts and tactical gear – looks to exploit unrest in order to start a second civil war.

    But there are various facets to the loosely organized group: One generally stems from its original ties to neo-Nazis and white supremacists, while a newer facet is libertarian.

    ...

    The boogaloo meme began emerging in both white power and antigovernment spaces online in the early 2010s, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

    "In both of these communities, 'boogaloo' was frequently associated with racist violence and, in many cases, was an explicit call for race war," the SPLC said.

    Recent events play into the group's hands, said Devin Burghart, executive director of the National Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights.

    “They believe that in this current moment, the chaos that surrounds us is signaling the potential for an impending second civil war which, believe it or not, they are hoping for because they believe that will rid the United States of all its problems,” Burghart told USA TODAY.

    There are mainly two wings of the boogaloo movement, but their objective of overthrowing the government and sparking societal collapse remains the same, Newhouse said. One side is made up of some neo-Nazis and white supremacists, whose plan for destroying the government is by starting a race war.

    "They want to spark some sort of confrontation that will kill both sides," Newhouse said. "They believe, 'If we start the bullets flying, then they'll kill each other' sort of thing," with no regard for who lives or dies.

    Another side is characterized as radical libertarian, notably men carrying weapons and wearing Hawaiian shirts. Some have recently been spotted at Black Lives Matter protests, waving anti-police signs alongside protesters, Newhouse said.

    First of all, how do you come up with 30% from one incident? Second, by your own admission, at least 70% of the arson and violence were actually done by lefties. Are you proud of that?

    Really? The entire city. A bit of hyperbole, no?

    Take Ferguson, Missouri. Almost all the violence over several weeks, even with thugs showing up, happened on several blocks on a single street extending away from a the infamous housing project. Then there's Portland. Something like $25m in damages after a hundred days--not that much when you consider how much it costs to build anything.

    The violence is exaggerated to keep viewers tuned in, from Fox to NPR.
    How about the right? How many people light their hair on fire as you have?
    Or rightwingers to...

    Boogaloo boys isn't an organization as far as I know but from what I do know is they are anarchist just like Antifa.

    And it's Proud Boys, not Poor Boys Joe Biden!

    You’re the one who claimed 99% of those arrested were left wing. Prove it.

    Mentally afflicted and low IQ people are in the radical left and right. There are more radical lefty loons than radical right loons IMO.

    False narrative. Even if this guy was the guy that fired the first shot, it does not excuse the rest of everyone else that rioted and looted and caused damage. They are just as guilty as this guy. No amount of spinning will change that fact.

    They wouldn't be JUST as guilty, but there likely will be charges for property damage/looting at some point.

    But those people aren't considered remotely as dangerous as the asshat(s) who shoot at a police station.

    Why on earth would you ask someone posting here if they're proud of "arson and violence?" Would it be reasonable to ask you, "Are you proud of the 'righties' who planned to kill the governor of Michigan?"

    So using bats, iced bottles, commercial grade m80's (which can kill) and other deadly items aren't as dangerous? Tell ya what, you get in full police gear and and let 10 people lob and hit you with those things and we'll see if you think the same.
