They're counting every group of five idiots who held a sign on a street corner.

They probably count the riots and anarchy in places like Portland as one long "protest" rather than 100+ separate nights of violence and anarchy.

Edit: I stand corrected. After looking at the actual data set, they do report each night as an individual event. They report half of the events in Portland over the last three months as violent. I don't live in Portland, so I'm not sure how realistic that is.

Came here to say this. Our "local" newspaper (owned by USA Today) had a story about a negro lives protest in a small town. Literally three people.

Yeah there was one around here that was like 10 white people talking about how shitty they are for being white. Literally not a single nigger there.

I saw 3 older white women throwing a nigger monkey lives matter rally in a small town. One had a sign that said her black son's life mattered. I wonder if she bought a nigger from africa, stole one from the zoo, or fucked one at the zoo. Not many apes in these parts.

The data set is here as a giant Excel file. For my city, they did correctly classify the BLM "protest" that devolved into property damage as a riot. They do seem to include a lot of smaller "protest" events. They also use count love as a source. This site lists several protests in the Excel sheet as having 20 or fewer people.

Here is an example of a "protest" that got counted in the data set. The video seems to include about ten "protesters", They appear in the middle of a field where they can be easily ignored. Here is an example of a "protest" that did not get included in the data set.

If they protest spanned 10 blocks and only 70% of one block got burned down bam 93% peaceful.
