"White people losing power" has nothing to do with people being annoyed about the protests. The narrative being used to justify the protests is what annoys people.
Michael Brown - a guy who escalated a potentially docile situation by fighting with a cop and going for his gun. Yet he is immortalized as an innocent kid who was executed simply for being black.
Eric Garner - more of a case of general police brutality compounded by a policy (cracking down on selling loosies) set forth by city hall. Race was not the issue.

Yep. I'm anti big government/police state and the Michael Brown case doesn't bother me.
The Eric Garner case REALLY bothers me. Negligent homicide, imo. Classic case of police having disregard for the public and being completely given a pass for things that government should not be doing.
