What is the end game with protesters, and rioters or both here?

Every protest is supposed to have a goal in mind, so what is it with these protests?
Bring attention to Police brutality In America? I get it. We all get it, and the police officer who killed him, which we all saw kill that man, and outraged the entirety of America is arrested and facing murder charges, and the others with him will undoubtedly be named as accomplices for not doing something to stop it, so what is it that needs brought attention to?
Exact justice because of an injustice? Well, its an unjust world by nature or else we wouldn't have kids getting cancer, and the good guys would always win the day, so unless you’re “tree yeahs owd” and still getting accustomed to life away from mommas tit, you realize this. And besides, the criminal justice system has brought the officer up on murder charges, so its not as if he has gotten away with murder, and theres not a question in my mind that this man will pay for his crime, no question whatsoever, so where’s the lack of justice?
Other than the outrageously criminal and violent behavior being on display for the entire country to behold, what is it that these people are trying to convey to the American public, because quite honestly I’m not too sure. If I look at the Washington protests and the attacking of the Fox News crew, the chants were clear that they wanted to hurt them for their perceived political views, so it must be about politics??? You can see peoples confusion as to what the end game is, because its clear as mud. Looked a lot more like ANTIFA than it did a bunch of concerned citizens that wanted to bring attention to something.
Maybe it was just an excuse to do something which they thought would bring actual relevance to their lives, like a reason for their existence or whatever, and so attacking the police is their stage to attain that??? I’m really not sure.
Maybe someone else can shed some light on the reasoning and end game with these protests and riots because I clearly do not get it. At least the looters are clear that their motives are profiting financially from it, but those who are protesting and rioting, its just not too clear.

There is none at this point for the rioters/looters. Just a bunch of worthless loser followers who can't think for themselves or think about others who they are hurting by destroying businesses that people have worked their whole lives to build.
It's people with nothing good going on in their lives who are looking for a thrill and a story to tell.

Most likely there were people there who had intentions of getting justice peacefully.
Then a bunch of dickheads piggybacked the situation so they could do dickhead things,as usual.
This is why we can't have nice things.
We need more Korean store owners.

Depends. Are we talking the actual protestors or the outside agitators who are making their way to these cities?
Here in Louisville they’re protesting over Breonna Taylor’s death on a no-knock warrant (that the police potentially fabricated evidence to get). The family doesn’t support the looting or violence but they want a civilian review board because LMPD has gotten way out of hand and want to see the officers involved properly investigated. The Mayor finally requested the case to be handed over to the FBI last week. The Police Chief stepped down, that was one of the things they wanted (and he’s shite, it needed to happen). The family has been very vocal and coordinating with the Governor’s office to encourage local protestors to not loot on her behalf.
But that was those who were peacefully protesting. They arrested a bunch of out of state, outside agitators here last night who are clearly here to cause anarchy and are opportunists because it’s an easy cause to latch onto to elevate.

And I and most people would probably be fine with demonstrations that were intended to simply bring attention to police brutality. Nobody in their right mind condones police brutality in this country, and because we all saw a very blatant case of it, it would make sense, but what would make even more sense is in waiting until a verdict came down that let this guy off, protests for injustice would take place across this country, and there would be validity in it, and the message would be loud and clear to all Americans that theres a big problem in America. Right now however, they just look like a bunch of criminal element themselves doing criminal shite because they’re criminals. It’s extremely counter productive because it does nothing to sway public opinion to side with that kind of people on anything. It distances the American public from them and their actions.

99.9% of the rioters/protesters don't work or pay taxes
After this is over they will go back to their miserable shitty lives and we will all carry on as usual

The general theme I have heard is essentially that if there’s major financial losses associated with these incidents that the ruling class will actually care about police accountability and changes

There's no end game until there are consequences for these thugs....if they let this shite go one for another night it's going to overflow into the suburbs and neighborhoods and then people will start shooting them dead in the streets.
Then this shite will end
Then this shite will end

I believe that people who are not successful in their own lives despise those who are. Instead of working hard, these thugs blame “them” and not themselves. It’s easier to be a victim and get free shite . This goes for any race.

I wish I'd known in April that the way to avoid the restaurant ban was to loot a restaurant.

Again, I’m not buying the blanket acceptance that most of these protestors are peacefully protesting and it’s outside agitators rioting. I think it’s naive and lazy.
I’m not saying outside agitators aren’t involved in some locations, but there are hundreds hundreds of rioters in LA, Atlanta, Houston, Minneapolis some nights. All these people were bussed in? Hmmmm....

Wildly unsuccessful people that so desperately need a win in life to feel validated they latch onto whatever cause is getting its 15 minutes. There is no end game only the next 15 minutes.

Eh. I’m only going by who was arrested here last night and reports from multiple organizations on both sides of the matter. The Governor himself noted he was approving the National Guard because of outside agitators that have now moved in and are pushing a violent narrative.
Does that mean locals didn’t participate at all? No. But it’s absolutely being driven by people not in some of these communities.
