Even better, even though he shouted “Allahu Akbar†and is a known Islamist, some are trying to just blame it purely on mental issues.
Ok so this Rashan Charles thing...
Am I getting it right?
Ppl are protesting and rioting over the fact that he didn't stop during a police chase and then fled into a shop where he continued to resist arrest and where an officer said he thought he was trying to swallow something and then later he became ill and died and they're saying it's the police fault?
Like he fled the police and then resisted arrest...

In a way you are lucky. At least your BLM groups don't burn down their own neighborhoods over perceived injustices.
Well shit, boy is my face red:
"Friday's clashes were reminiscent of an uprising in England in 2011, which saw public anger explode on the streets following the death of a British black man, Mark Duggan, at the hands of police.
Protesters lit mattresses on fire and smashed shopfronts of some local businesses. Some threw bottles at police."
I don't understand what the local businesses have to do with something the police did.
