No. What I am doing is using an extreme example to prove the fault of your logic. It is a pretty common tactic. These riots do not have to be the first stages of s Civil War to show that your logic is faulty.

The protestors are not hunting down people who carry the Confederate Flag. they are protesting against a regime that welcomes the racial hatred symbolized by the Confederate Flag.
And if we had a President from the Nation of Islam who supported the extermination of Jews then, yes, I would understand why they might resorted to violent protests when a few of them start getting killed by the state.
