They are just giving all the ignorant white people something to use in their argument for black people "acting like savages".
It's not just white people, old people, racist people, or ignorant people. I personally know several intelligent young people of various races and backgrounds who feel like the rioters were in the wrong because they didn't care to know why the verdict was made before they rioted. These people think that most of the rioters were on the edges of their seats waiting to hear the grand jury's verdict, angry and ready to riot. Maybe true?
