I think the hard part is when a guy knees on your neck for 8 minutes, or when you are shot for reaching for your registration after saying you are, or when you're a medic or journalist and you get a baton across the face for legally standing somewhere. 

When you're told that the protests are about these instances, what purpose does it serve to try to say "what about"? I guess because it's easy to discount actual injustice by suggesting it's just a bunch of "criminals" "resisting", but you either have to be intentionally dishonest in hopes that you can steer away from the point being contended or you have to have your head buried under a lot of sand to think that describes the problem.
