| You wanted to know how the state incites violence. And how they are inciting violence particularly in this case.     |
| I’ve described it. Mass arrests of non violent offenders in a heavy visual presence, disturbing the life in          |
| residential areas, by people not trained to police while respecting constitutional rights, predictably create the    |
| protests. Heavy handed crowd control predictably radicalizes the protesters. Videos of the protestors being violent  |
| is the outcome the state wants so that it can justify bringing in the national guard and polarize the population.    |
|                                                                                                                      |
| What is the possible probable cause of arresting a natural born citizen because you didn’t have an ID on you while   |
| being outside your apartment. Since they turn out to be a citizen it can’t be that they have paperwork with your     |
| name on it back at the office. They are arresting because they don’t know who you are, not because they know who you |
| are and they have some prior evidence you committed a crime. Arresting someone because you’re not sure if they       |
| didn’t commit a crime is all kinds of constitutional violations. The ask is not to me on how they can satisfy the    |
| base without inciting violence. The ask is for them on how can they enforce the law without violating the rights of  |
| people.                                                                                                              |
|                                                                                                                      |
| The fact that the state is presently pursing the enforcement while appearing to not care about the rights of people  |
| is the point of the protests in many cases.                                                                          |
|                                                                                                                      |
