When rioters come prepared with named lists of businesses or households to attack (and intentionally spare others), that signals organized, identity‑based selection rather than spontaneous looting.

— If true, this shifts the debate from crowd control to organized, potentially premeditated ethnic persecution — raising stakes for immigration screening, hate‑crime law enforcement, and community protection policies.
