I agree. When these same few videos are posted over and over and someone dutifully chimes in with "coming soon to your neighborhood", you are doing the work of these protesters for them. In my opinion, you are providing them with an influence they shouldn't have. In a way, you are feeding the trolls.
I don't think we'll have the large scale riots here like in other major cities (hope not), but keep in mind that all it would take is a white OKCPD officer shooting a black person to light things off.
And BLM would be coming from all over the country if they saw a good enough chance to make circus out of it.
Hopefully our prosecutors and elected officials have made a strong enough point that their chit don't fly here.

I do not believe this will be an issue here. Some of the local council people might bow down to them. But I know for a fact the Police Department would not. As soon as that first weekend of wanna-be rioters started getting violent, they were quickly dispatched with some 40MM Spicy gas
To add to this guy's comments on going to trial, I wouldn't be too confident that one could get 12 intelligent "peers" to serve on my jury. Many of those called for jury duty aren't very knowledgeable. A co-worker that worked with me at the OSBI sat on jury for a drug case. The other jurors had no idea that "Possession with Intent to Distribute" was a more serious crime than just "Possession of Controlled Substances."
