I can understand this guys point of view.

It's similar to mine.

Derek Laney, 49, traveled from nearby St. Louis to demonstrate, saying the death of young black men was an epidemic. Whatever Brown did, he said, was “not punishable by execution in the streets,” and he somewhat defended the melee that broke store windows.

“People are angry, people are hurt, people are fed up. You have to direct it somewhere — and you can't direct it at the people who made you angry because they'll shoot you and kill you,” Laney said. “So they express it outward... I wouldn't go out and smash things, I wouldn't go out and burn things. But I understand why people do it.”
