From what I have seen on Facebook comments, a lot of liberals will be happy about this.
I wish I could assume I didn't have to point this out, that this looting and destruction will cause prices to rise, hurting the poor the most.
When police do try to stop looters, they are accused of police brutality.

Solidarity protests for George Floyd have led to chaos in the streets in New York City.
While most demonstrations were peaceful — protesting police brutality and systemic racism after Floyd, a black man, died under the knee of a white police officer on his neck — some have been marked by violence and looting.
On numerous occasions, as looters took what they could from stores in Manhattan, police officers sat back and watched.
On Twitter, NBC News journalist Keith Feldman posted a video of a group of looters grabbing merchandise from a SoHo store and driving away in their cars.
"Looters are literally pulling up in nice cars and cleaning out stores in #Soho," he wrote. "What #Curfew?"
About three miles north of SoHo, others looted a North Face store in Midtown Manhattan.
"A van of cops drove up to this looted store, then left. Looters went in two more times — including while this NYPD van drove by," reported Matthew Chayes, a Newsday journalist.
