By that logic, the whole demonstration might be a lie, it was after all the MSM that first reported of it :). Or you could use your own common sense: What is more likely, that the absolute majority of the students protested camly with some instigators invading it to cause trouble or that such a huge amount of students dress up in black clothes and hoodies to be violent? Of course a few students might have been involved but how can that be a reason to apply their behaviour on the entire group? Is that supposed to be the new standard for logic and rational behaviour?

 I actually meant to reply to the comment that the protestors were not the ones breaking and burning stuff.  However, your are reaching hard with that ridiculous logic of yours. If you watch the various videos that the people who participate in these riots post and not only what the media shows you, you would know. Maybe you should get more informed instead making pointless comments.

By the same logic how can you excuse the whole group if you admit that students were involved? How do you know none of the students dressed up in black clothes and hoodies and helped to incite the riot? None of this is what most people would consider rational behavior; so where is the outrage against these people?

Because even if all 150 of these masked violent protestors would have been part of the 1500 peaceful protesters during the day, it would still at most account for 10% of all students who participated. I am not excusing the whole group, I am excusing those that protested peacefully. I know there are a lot of republicans that don't like when people protest, even when it's peaceful. Good thing the protesters always have the most important amendment on their side though.
