I'm not from the United States so I don't actually get how big/serious these riots are.

Like, if you're in a big city, would you be able to go out without running into one of the riot crowds?

What if you live in the suburban/rural areas? Any commotion there?

It's almost every city, but in daily life... we don't always go into the downtown area

If you live in a city you're more than likely to get beat down by both the protesters and police.

It seems like most cities, though certain cities are calmer than others. Some are doing more peaceful marches while others are full blown riots. Most of the smaller cities seem to be doing relatively alright with it mostly being peaceful. New York City has riots, but Albany, New York is mostly peaceful despite being the state capitol. There are protests, but outside of a few thrown rocks nothing seems to be going down.

More suburban and rural areas aren't seeing it at all though.

Then he went on live talking about how he got assaulted in his vehicle, then pulled out and got assaulted again.

All this without saying he pulled out the bow and arrow and was aiming at people while shouting "all lives matter!"

any form of weapon would result in mob justice. effectively being beaten the shit out of the person until knocked out.

that one guy with the sword didn't fare too well either.

I live in the middle of nowhere and there are peaceful protests like 15 minutes away and a courthouse was set on fire like a 2 hours drive away. I'd say pretty widespread. Do I personally feel affected tho? Nah.

The one in Omaha last night got pretty wild but was contained to like a 6 square block area. Most of the city is business as usual.

If the racist bar owner who murdered a black protester last night isn't arrested today it'll fucking explode though

Even sleepy old Connecticut is/has been seeing big protests in every major city. Stamford, Bridgeport, Hartford, and New Haven(where protestors have shutdown I-95). Smaller protests in lots of other places as well.

Everyone always forgets Saint Louis goddamnit ;p
I mean that's really our own fault because of the way the city is essentially split between Saint Louis City and then surrounding it a ton of tiny municipalities that are essentially part of the city. If they were to ever go through with the city/county merger we would be the 10th largest city in the country.

Omaha, NE. The Hive/The Gatsby in downtown Omaha. Owner is a well documented racist piece of shit and was out with a friend yelling racial slurs at people walking by and waving his gun around, one group confronted him over the slurs and got into a scuffle trying to disarm him when he took aim at one of them and he ended up shooting a 22 year old black guy in the neck, killing him.
