Let's talk about all the protestors that DIDN'T riot, since the news is ignoring the vast majority of the protests.

I have friends marching in Seattle as well, and no issues there. Portland police talked to the protesters ahead of time, and told them not to block traffic, and again, so far no issues at all. But do you see any of that on the news? No.
Notice this article briefly mentions that many other cities held protests, but only talks about the violence in DC. Well, the rest of the country all managed it peacefully, good for them! http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/19/politics/t...ens-march/

"We have been pointing out all along that this is a very isolated incident, and by and large, everything is going peacefully and a lot of folks have come to the city to enjoy this historic day, not only the Capitol but walking all around the city," he said.
