... I'm not at all sure that all those fires were started by the protesters. Don't you think it's kind of funny that we never hear who those perpetrators of arson and property damage were? Have there been any arrests for those specific crimes?

If I were the protesters (as a group), I'd want to see the mug shots of each and every perp. If none of the protesters recognize any of the perps, then someone needs to find out who the suspects are and there associations.

If you hear of any arrests of arsonists, looters, or just all around violent property damagers, please let me know. I would be interested to know about these individuals.
