Woke up to see the news this morning. What a horrible mess.
This is going to make things a lot worse. Who can blame cops for being even MORE itchy and more likely to shoot first and ask questions later based on what happened here... which will result in more deaths, which will result in more anger/resentment etc. And who can blame citizens for feeling uneasy with police officers when they are all too quick to resort to weapons etc It's a recipe for a downward spiral.
The one group that is absolutely to be blamed to a significant extent for this is all the racists and race baiters that have pushed this big race-driven narrative, fueling the fire with lies and misinformation rather than objectively looking at facts. Thanks to them this type of event was inevitable at some point.
