To be clear, you are saying "don't try to prevent looting/arson because there is a tiny risk of collateral damage to peaceful civilians"

Nope. I'm refuting your implication that the only people hurt or maimed by rubber bullets are the guilty:

>So... don't go looting? [...] You'll be perfectly fine as long as you don't reach for your molotov cocktail and baseball bat to go join in the "fun"

Why are there "peaceful protestors" in burning commercial zones, again? A smoldering Target seems like the wrong venue to protest at.

There'd be little point in provocateurs burning commercial zones if there weren't peaceful protestors there.

You know bullets can travel up to about two and half miles right? And that they can also ricochet?

This is not a video game we're talking about.
