Was Mookie right in starting the riot that burnt down Sal's pizzeria?

Yes, if it meant saving the lives of Sal and his employees.
Also, Millers Lite.

Exactly, he wanted to divert the rioters' attention from killing Sal and his sons to just destroying the shop. Based film.

Spike Lee confirmed that Mookie did it because of Raheem death, not to save Sal.

Spike Lee says on the commentary that that wasn't Mookie's motivation. He just chimped out

The right thing is the right thing regardless of his intentions
even if I didn't hate niggers, I'd say no one in that movie did the right thing

spike lee sure is edgy

Yeah the only person who does the right thing throughout the movie is maybe Da Mayor. However, starting the riot was probably the right thing to do as it provided a means for the black community to express their displeasure without hurting anyone directly. A human life is more important than property.
What an amazing film, it's in my mind one of the greatest American films.
