I think it's fair to say that there was almost universal condemnation from day one, from just about everyone except the Minneapolis city government. And so the protests started out as a demand for justice from Minneapolis. They later transformed into a wider protest against police violence generally.
I happened to read a story today about someone arrested for punching a police dog in Houston. It took one day for them to be charged, and that was because they went to the hospital first.
