It warms my cold dead heart to see so much solidarity abroad, it really does. 
Unfortunately I think that this is a super far reaching issue that probably resonates with way too many people from all walks of life. The systemic oppression and murder of black people is somewhat uniquely American due to our storied past, but indiscriminate killing and incarceration of minorities is definitely not.
But seeing the whole world supporting and embracing this movement is heartening.
@Qman, I do agree with that, and I always have, still doesn't negate the issues that the protest is focused around. This is not a race war though and it never was.

In interviews and posts on social media in recent days, current and former U.S. intelligence officials have expressed dismay at the similarity between events at home and the signs of decline or democratic regression they were trained to detect in other nations.
“I’ve seen this kind of violence,” said Gail Helt, a former CIA analyst responsible for tracking developments in China and Southeast Asia. “This is what autocrats do. This is what happens in countries before a collapse. It really does unnerve me.”
Helt, now a professor at King University in Tennessee, said the images of unrest in U.S. cities, combined with President Trump’s incendiary statements, echo clashes she covered over a dozen years at the CIA tracking developments in China, Malaysia and elsewhere.

Dude, the cops are not rioting, you guys are. One cop made a shitty joke and you took it as proof of something.
I wonder if that tweet is even real.
Mah bad. It is a corporate rock song.
Sounds like a bad joke on the cop’s part to me.

The cops are absolutely antagonizing protesters and inciting violence.
You think, with the amount of people out there, that if all of them were actually rioting and looting, that more people wouldn't be dead? That live rounds would not have been fired on protesters? There are a handful of a violent agitators out there, and the fbi is looking for them. They've already confirmed no antifa involvement in the violence. Cops have already been shot and killed. If this was more than just a small percentage of assholes then things would be much much uglier.
Anyway, I saw this picture the other day on reddit and thought it was incredible. It's from a confederate flag rally from a while back, I don't really know much about it, but...

Can you imagine if people at blm protests were coming armed and reaching for guns??
Holy fucking shit.

Got any evidence of that besides an emotional diatribe?
If cops were going to pull an agente sabatuere move, do you think they would post about it ahead of time?
All I see proof of is( if that post is even real) a cop named Tommy has a shitty sense of humor and way bad timing.

First, Welcome to 2020!
Educate yourself before you make ignorant statements.
That is not a "Tweet".
It was posted from Tommy McClay personal Instagram account.
As for the, not real/fake news, mindset your in, I will take the time to find the official statement from the City of Denver regarding the post of Tommy McClays Instagram post.
It is real. Denver City Council made a official statement 4 hours after Tommy posted it.
Let me go find your "proof"
even tho it won't help you see reality because your mind is twisted and warped already

Evidence? And there is plenty of people showing up armed at these protests.
But they're usually not protestors.
