In LA, enough businesses boarded up their windows to prepare for post election riots. Im sure the same holds true for other major cities.
Obviously no riots yet. But, revisiting some past riot and protest conversations and debates in the past, one narrative always insisted that if Biden wins, the riots will stop.
Not saying Biden has won yet, and he can still lose.
But people here (myself included) have said rioters and protests will stop simply because they know Biden will acknowledge and might be sympathetic to the factors that motivate people to protest and riot. While others have said the riots will stop only because they are manufactured by the democrats and they will only stop because they will stop staging them.
So, the questions are... If Biden loses to Trump, what purpose would the riots serve for the democrats at this point? Is it possible Democrat leadership wasn't behind the riots at all and the rioters just happened to be democrats? And, how quickly must Biden tackle the reasons behind the riots before they decide if and when to start rioting again?
