Multiple businesses in Kenosha, Wisconsin have been looted, vandalized and reduced to rubble over the past five days. Storeowners have watched their livelihoods go up in flames, cars and other personal property have been destroyed, innocent people have been left bleeding in the street, and God only knows how many tax dollars will be spent cleaning up this mess.

But we’re all supposed to sit back and watch as the zoo animals are allowed to run wild and yet another community is burned to the ground, for racial equality or something. Because after all, according to CNN, this is a “fiery but mostly peaceful protest.”
