I saw video of the protests and it looked pretty wild. Some of the protestors were acting in a far more aggressive manner than the victims who have been shot by police. And yet cops managed to not shoot anyone (yet). So it is possible for police to use restraint, as long as they are outnumbered.

A few knuckleheads hell. They are blocking interstates and looting everything they can get their hands on. This is not protests this is rioting. I am an uptown Charlotte resident and this is out of control.
 
Shots being fired on a periscope feed I'm watching. Apparently someone else was shot in the head. Also they are talking about a bomb that went off. Not sure how much of this is crap on the ground or truth but looks nuts.
