Food For Thought
I think it bears mentioning that the protests have been generally peaceful. Most of the rioting and property destruction were carried out by people outside the BLM movement; anarchists and their ilk on the left, and boogaloo bois and their allies on the right. But keep in mind that those on the left have killed no one, while those on the right have killed three people so far, and have used the protests as cover to kill a law enforcement officer.
UPDATE: I typed too soon, It appears that a pro-Trump protester was shot and killed in Portland last night.

Things Are Getting Dangerous
Louisville police closed streets and set up barricades to help separate members of the NFAC (Not F***ing Around Coalition), an Atlanta-based Black militia, from those of far-right "Three Percenter" militia groups vowing to show up in response.
At least 100 NFAC members lined up in a park a few blocks from downtown before marching to a protest where Black Lives Matter activists and the Three Percenters were being separated by a police barricade of about 40 officers in riot gear.

Paultard Charged
A volunteer for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Rand Paul faces a fourth-degree assault charge after the man stepped on the head of a liberal activist when she tried to pull a political stunt on Paul Monday evening.
Police said Tuesday that a criminal summons would be served on Timothy Profitt, 53, of Bourbon County.
Meanwhile, Profitt wants his alleged victim to apologize to him for letting her head get in the way of his foot.
