A right-wing provocateur (white) broke store windows in Minneapolis, and started the violence of protests there. His act was followed by arson at the same store.

I am not at all surprised by this act. Right-wing extremists have become comfortable with dishonesty and violence, so they have no restraints against committing false-flag attacks.

I hope they catch him and prosecute him.

The protesters who confronted him and told him to stop understood what was needed. However, the protest movement did not have the discipline to stop violence once it had started.
