Could’ve fooled us.
Do you know the difference between protesters and rioters? https://t.co/p8NuT7zoY3

It’s simple, really: If they’re leftists, they’re “protesters.”
Reputable news sources ought to make a distinction between "protesters" and "rioters", or protest will become synonymous with violence.

Rioters… not protesters… Rioters loot, protesters protest.

How can you call them 'protesters'? They are simply opportunist thieves.
