Doesn’t flying the ‘Black Lives Matter’ flag validates vandalism and property destruction?

Illinois State University celebrated the Black Lives Matter movement by flying its official flag on campus throughout the day Monday.

“Proud of our students and community,” one school administrator, Vice President for Student Affairs Levester Johnson, tweeted with an image of students gathered around a flagpole flying the Black Lives Matter flag.

The Black Student Union’s twitter feed was filled with supporters of the movement tweeting pictures of the flag, where some called it one of the school’s “biggest accomplishments.”
