I don't the article is making that argument. But the police response worsened the situation. To me, it doesn't mean they shouldn't have done anything (i.e. stay home). It means they should have what they tried to do what they did better.

Yeah, just like in Baltimore, when the mayor had the cops stand down and give the "protesters" space, they totally just had a little march and then peaceably went home, probably picking up litter on the way too. Yep, no burning, looting or rioting there.

No shit. The police response and media ratings frenzy forever destroyed all hope of determining the truth of what really happened.

I posted an article on this subject yesterday in news. They didn't like it much. Let's see what r/conspiracy has to say. :D
