Why were Lucifer and his band of angels created when God knew what would happen to him and the human race?

Your question presumes that God acts in time as humans do: past, present, future. That, however, is a human restriction on God. God created Lucifer for the same reason that God created everything else: to share life. Unfortunately, Lucifer eventually resented his subordinate status and led a revolt of angels. The question “What did God know when? ” is framed in terms of human time.

Detroit

On July 23, 1967, what would become known as the “12th Street Riot ” erupts in Detroit, Michigan, when police raid an unlicensed bar in the early morning hours. The angry cops treat the black patrons like criminals and herd them outside. A crowd gathers, a store window is smashed, and an uprising is born from years of mistreatment by police, housing segregation, and a lack of jobs, opportunities, and education. Five days later, 43 people are dead and 1,189 people are injured.
