It’s not OK to describe shooting police in the head, lighting them on fire, burning down precincts, firebombing Federal courthouses, occupying city halls, and cordoning off entire city blocks with armed insurgents as “begging officials to acknowledge a perspective.”
"Begging officials to acknowledge a perspective" is not an accurate description of protestors declaring an autonomous zone or taking over or burning down police stations and courthouses.
Here's a BLM protest speaker definitely not "begging officials to acknowledge a perspective": "I'm at the point where I'm ready to put these police in a f***ing grave. I'm at the point where I want to burn the f***ing White House down. ... I wanna take the fight to them. And at the end of the day, if they ain't gonna hear us, we burn them the f**k down."
