Poll: Most Likely Voters Believe Violent Protests Are Hallmarked by Criminals

Most likely U.S. voters believe the violent protests dominating several cities nationwide are dominated by criminals “taking advantage of the situation” a Rasmussen poll released Monday revealed.

Rasmussen Reports conducted the survey on July 29-30, 2020, among 1,000 likely voters and asked, “Is the mob violence that has continued for weeks in several major cities primarily legitimate outrage over the police or mostly criminals taking advantage of the situation?”

The majority of voters, or 57 percent, said that the violent protests are comprised of “mostly criminals” who are taking advantage of the general waves of unrest. Only 32 percent expressed the belief that mob violence is fueled by “legitimate outrage over the police.” Twelve percent of respondents indicated that they remain unsure.

While younger respondents are more likely to view the violent protests as stemming from legitimate outrage, 49 percent of younger voters think it is “primarily criminal instead.”

“While 56% of whites and 70% of other minority voters say the ongoing mob violence is largely criminal, just 37% of blacks agree. Forty-one percent (41%) of black voters say it’s mostly legitimate outrage,” Rasmussen reported.

Can someone tell me how racism was involved in the GF case? I watched the leaked footage and I don’t see anything having to do with racism.

Today it was released that the Trump campaign hired private instigators to infiltrate the protests and create conflict for video ops for ads. It's all propaganda and media opportunities social and otherwise for both parties. We are being played on the Left and the Right and buying it.

It wasn't about racism 4:27. If by now you haven't figured out blacks are an immoral race who lie constantly about race and the police then I don't know what to tell you.
