This group of protesters have exposed themselves as nothing but trouble makers. They were not in any way provoked by police to burn cars, smash windows or loot. They've basically given police a clear mandate to you use force *in response* to their violence and have no chance to point the finger at anyone else. I know there's probably a few hundred thousand dollars in damage, but it might have been necessary to make clear to everyone what they're dealing with and that whatever response is taken is more than justified.
They also may have been accumulating video evidence in order to be able to make arrests with charges that actually stickl, rather than simply round people up just to release them without charge.
I only hope there is some measure of compensation made available to local business who suffered damage.
