How is that related? Are you justifying violence?

Just saying, certain people are very very happy to point out the violence of the oppressed, yet throw a hissy fit when people point out the violence of the oppressor.

Justifying is not pointing out.

No, just trying to highlight the double standard when it comes to how law enforcement are treated compared to everyone else.
I also wouldn't classify destroying the car of a government organization as violence. It's destruction, but fairly mild compared to burning people's homes to the ground. And even then, I wouldn't think to compare property damage to actual violence, like murder.

To note another interesting double standard, its interesting how different people view say, the Waco situation than this.

Context for why someone would want to burn a police car?

Even that was in 2005. Any charges have expiration, and once exonerated can not be brought up again.
Much changes over 15 years.

The front page has an article about a processor from 42 years ago. What's your point?

That you can't estimate how current processors will match your expectations based on how 42 years ago processor matched expectations of people living at the time.

If 42 years ago Intel sold a processor that burned my house down, I might not be the biggest fan of Intel even 42 years later. This isn't about expectations, it's about reputation. Not everyone has a goldfish memory.
