A mini BLM riot in a UK school
"Around 200 children staged a walk-out at a school in Bristol after a teacher quit claiming they had been a victim of racism
A member of staff said pupils at Redland Green School tried to break down doors, sprayed graffiti on the walls, smashed toilets and tipped over bins during the disruption.
They said that things became so tense that staff had to barricade themselves inside classrooms.
The member of staff said: ‘Approximately 200 students, fed up with a lack of action over racism, staged a walk-out at 11am, and refused to go back to class as a form of protest.
‘The protest turned into a riot, with senior management chasing students throughout the school throughout the day.’
The school denied that there had been a riot, saying it was a peaceful protest on the playground."

It wasn't a riot, just a mob of people smashing property until others fear for their safety, just a peaceful protest. Where have I heard this before? This deceit seems intentional.
Also seems like some people like to use the idea of fighting an "ism" as a free pass to cause chaos and to feel morally superior, in one go. Two deep desires of the human psyche in one go.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” - C.S.Lewis
The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior 'righteous indignation' this is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats. - Aldous Huxley
