The actions may not have been politically motivated but the causes most definitely are.
The apologists for the actions have made the case for possible causes. I do not care for the way our society is and would have it changed, but criminality such as we have witnessed is not the way forward and gangs of swaggering hoodies and opportunist robbers are not my idea of political activists.
Not sure we're on the same lines here. I'm saying that the reason people have turned out like this is due to politics not that the rioting/robbing is political.
