They've been portrayed by the president as violent left-wing radicals and used to scare suburban voters. But an AP review found most of those arrested in U.S. protests look like regular citizens caught up in the moment — many are young suburban adults.

across the U.S. There have been more than 16,000 positive cases in the federal prison system, according to a tracker compiled by the AP and The Marshall Project.

The judge said there are lot of people “who do something stupid that’s dangerous that we don’t even consider detaining.” In one arrest in Erie, Pennsylvania, community members raised more than $2,500 to help with bail for a 29-year-old Black man who was arrested after they said white people had come and spray painted a parking lot.

Several of the defendants are not from the Democratic-led cities that Trump has likened to “war zones” but from the suburbs the president has claimed to have “saved.” Of the 93 people arrested on federal criminal charges in Portland, 18 defendants are from out of state, the Justice Department said. More than 40% of those facing federal charges are white. More than two-thirds are under the age of 30, and most are men. More than a quarter have been charged with arson. More than a dozen are accused of civil disorder, and others are charged with burglary and failing to comply with a federal order. They were arrested in cities across the U.S., from Portland, Oregon, to Minneapolis, Boston and New York.

Most? What about running over cops? Is that caught up in the moment?

YOU ARE INSANE!!!

YOUARE INSANE!

YOU ARE INSANE!

You are insane

What does that even mean

Most importantly, these 'peaceful suburban voters' who are commiting acts of vandalism because they are 'caught up in the moment' have the support of the anti-America Democratic Party, the socialists AP and the rest of Fake Media.

Baloney

Your not right but I guess it's easy for someone who doesn't live there or try to shop there or just try to have lunch or dinner they are left wing and BLM and Atfia And I hope and pray that when Trump wins let's see where they go. You need to try and go out where they are!

No excuses if they burned Destroyed property or looted then they should be arrested. Probably should have been at home. Every few years these people have to do this. This is a country of law and order and they are not above the law.They are guilty
