You can't tell the multitude how to revolt.
Small businesses thrashed and looted are unfortunate events, but you can't just condemn the riots altogether because of its violence. You can't just look down and say "you're doing it wrong". It's a riot. It DOESN'T make sense. It's the manifestation of bottled up discontentment that wouldn't have happened if there WERE viable channels of dissent. But there aren't.
You're condemning a scorpion for stinging.
