She looks like she had a fight with a hardware store and lost.
But seriously...
Who cares?
I didn't care when Bush's daughter's got drunk.
I didn't care when obamas daughter smoked weed.
In those cases they were not assisting violent riots - were they? They were if anything only hurting themselves. Your analogy is not good at all.
I'm not defending the kids actions.
I am however not holding the mayor accountable for his kids actions.
Show me where he encouraged her to break the law and I will be all over him.

So let's just eliminate all valid forums of protest and social complaints because of bad eggs...
With that logic, all i would have to do to discredit anyone is send in a few people to instigate rioting.
Is it that hard to say rioting in this case is wrong, and police brutality against blacks is also wrong?

My guess is a lifetime of supporting communist causes. Read up a bit on the mayor. He has had an interesting career.

I disagree. There are still many peaceful protesters who aren't rioting.
The message is lost when cities burn.

The protesters know who the the agents among them are. If they want to make a message, then let them turn in the ones who are doing this. If there really are more peaceful protesters than agents, it shouldn't be a problem. You can't have a peaceful, productive dialogue when the agents are agitating and fomenting violence and burning cities now can you?
So if that's really what they want, it would seem to be in their own best interests to turn in the agents.
Absent that, their message is lost.

It's kinda hard to see the message with all the glare from the fires.
It's kinda hard to hear the message over the sound of shattering glass.
Yes, there is a message... But who can hear/listen, or see, when they're busy dodging, or trying to protect themselves or their livelihood??
