What's the normal status of a city in terms of being on fire? What's your standard here - Dresden?

‘being on fire’ seems like an attempt to move the goalposts.

No cities in America are ‘going up in flames’ or ‘on fire’.

A few fires started as a result of the protests.

Making it sound like some post-apocalyptic or wartime scene is just disinformation.

On the other hand we are wistnessing the largest set of mostly peaceful political demonstrations since the 60’s.
