There's a hair's breadth between a protest and a riot when emotions are running high and whilst you're right that rioting generally loses the original point (as happened in 2011 when it decended into looting), losing the point does not mean that there was never a valid point to begin with. Trying to use the fact that things went bad to drown out the original point is disingenuous. It's spin. Pure and simple.
