Morning Brief: L.A. Riot Round-Up

Senator Alex Padilla characterized the protests as “peaceful” and “passionate”. “The vast majority of protesters and demonstrators are peaceful. … When you come into a community like Los Angeles, the way the Trump administration has, you need to expect to be countered with people who are passionate about defending fundamental rights.”

This stuff is really tiresome.

You could also literally say this about the infamous J6, but it would not matter a lick. You would be called dishonest for saying it was peaceful because the majority are peaceful, but it's standard policy to drag out this line when it is a left wing cause.
