He did say that, but it's out of context. He was very strongly anti-violence. He also said:

"My hope is that it will be non-violent. I would hope that we can avoid riots because riots are self-defeating and socially destructive. "

I think the question of what MLB would have said is kind of beside the point in a discussion of the riots. That said, what I think - and I think he would have agreed with this, but I think it regardless - is that, yes, riots are destructive and ultimately self defeating and not a defensible thing on moral or practical grounds. But at the same time they're a sign of a larger disorder in society and a real pressing need in society that we can't set aside or if ore because some of the people in that group resorted to violence.

The thing is, no one is going to see past the riots. They burned down and looted their own neighborhoods and endangered firefighters. This is just giving fuel to racist right wingers and nutjobs. This isn't helping them, it's hurting them, in more ways than one.

Yes, that's largely what I meant when I said it was tactically self defeating.
