I think putting resources toward them and less toward the protests would help a lot. I know they have a vested interest in shutting down the protests but the city should come before pride.

In Chicago the actual protest was fine. People chanting and it was for the most part self-policed. Heavy police presence wasn't necessary and only made things worse. The looting took place in other areas that the cops ignored. Once word got out, it was game on for the looters.
