Why would they want the protestors to be seen as terrorists? Wouldn't it make more sense to just rein in police misconduct? I mean, it would be the right thing to do.

I guess between right and stupid they will choose stupid every time. Are they trying to satisfy the sensibilities of some white supremacist, neo confederate group? WTF?
