It's truly awful more race riots have erupted in the US

Following the sick act of a policeman in Minneapolis who choked a black man named George Floyd to death after handcuffing him, there's been race riots breaking out over the US, accompanied by vandalism and looting. Yes, still more of these nightmares just have to take place. The worst part about this? It all may have been started by Antifa, and some municipalities said a lot of the rioters weren't even residents of the cities in question.

In Jacksonville, Florida, there was even a policeman who got stabbed in the neck by rioters:
A police officer was stabbed in the neck and several others attacked Saturday at a riot over the death of George Floyd in Jacksonville, Florida.

They attacked several police officers. They vandalized several police cars, attempting to light them on fire, breaking windows. We have one officer who was stabbed — was slashed in the neck and is currently at the hospital,” stated Sheriff Mike Williams.
This just shows the rioters aren't interested in justice, but in celebrating barbarism. They even vandalized a Los Angeles synagogue:
A synagogue in Los Angeles, California was vandalized with anti-Israel graffiti Saturday.

The graffiti was found on the wall of Congregation Beth Israel, one of the oldest synagogues in Los Angeles, in the Fairfax District and read "F-Israel, Free Palestine."

The vandalism occurred as Los Angeles and other parts of the country were rocked by protests over the wrongful death of an African American man in police custody in Minneapolis.

The Anti-Defamation League's Los Angeles branch tweeted in response to the vandalism: "Vandalism is never ok. Antisemitism is never ok. The answer to hate and bigotry is not more hate. We are better than this Los Angeles."

Derek Chauvin, the policeman videotaped pressing down on the neck of detainee George Floyd, was arrested and charged with third-degree murder, Minneapolis authorities reported over the weekend.
I think it's pretty apparent the rioters behind these acts are only taking advantage of a bad situation to make it worse by dragging in all sorts of unrelated subjects, and visiting violence upon even those uninvolved. All they're doing is hurting the cause of the poor man who tragically fell victim to corruption in law enforcement. If Antifa had anything to do with this, they must be outlawed, and it must be seen to that they cannot be funded.

Update: the biggest irony in this affair is that the owner of the store where Floyd was arrested for supposedly paying with a counterfeit $20 bill was a "palestinian"-American.

Update 2: Donald Trump is going to have Antifa designated as a terror organization:
President Trump declared Sunday that he will designate the radical liberal group Antifa as a terrorist organization after a week of violent riots across the country.

"The United States of America will be designating ANTIFA as a Terrorist Organization," the president announced in a midday tweet.
It's about time.

What irony do you see in this?

The store has been owned by the same family for thirty years; the people running it are the children of the original owners.

" there's been race riots breaking out over the US,"

Not really. The protesters have been mostly peaceful, and a lot of white faces are in the crowds.
