Protester's side:

Unarmed black man is assassinated by 94% white police department. Protesters start protesting. Unaffiliated bad people take advantage to loot. Police use military-grade violence to disperse peaceful protests. Police arrest journalists and destroy or dismantle their equipment. Governor declares he's about to remove the county police. FBI opens investigation into initial death. Protests ongoing.

Police side:

Suspect assaults officer and is shot resisting arrest. Protesters make it a race issue and began rioting and looting. Police use reasonable force to disperse rioters. National media makes it a race issue. Internet portrays rioters as heroes and police as villains. Police help journalists stay safe and transport their equipment. Police chief graciously hopes it won't be necessary to tear-gas the state senator again. Rioting ongoing.

Disclaimer: I'm biased in support of the protesters.
