To keep it more current here's one from 08/31. That's this week, not "months" ago.

It only took them three months, well done! I guess they got the word that the polls had shifted on this topic.
In all seriousness, though, the protests have been largely peaceful. There is a disproportionate amount of attention paid to the violence because that is what sells, but there have been peaceful protests going on this whole time. From my perspective, people have been trying to focus the lens on what benefits them the most to further their agenda. Some people ignore that there are many of peaceful protesters and some people try to downplay the violence of the riots.
