Three white guys in bullet-proof vests shot 5 protesters. Uh-huh. Right. What, were they off-duty cops enacting revenge or something? What type of story will this group make up next?

Oh, it gets better! Now they were white supremacists... We have so many of them here in MN, ya know.

And to show just how delusional these folks are, here are a couple quotes:

From the brother of the felon who died initially:

“Thank you to the community for the incredible support you have shown for our family in this difficult time,” Sutton said in the statement issued early Tuesday. “We appreciate Black Lives Matter for holding it down and keeping the protests peaceful.


Yes, throwing rocks, bricks, and molotov cocktails is quite peaceful, no?

And from the main rabble-rouser:

“I am obviously appalled that white supremacists would open fire on nonviolent, peaceful protesters,” said Nekima Levy-Pounds, president of the Minneapolis chapter of the NAACP, who returned to the site after the shootings.

So, before the 5 'nonviolent, peaceful protesters' were shot by them, these white supremacists were on site, harassing the protesters, and for the first time in more than a week, no one had a cell phone/ surveillance video taking it all in?
Nothing odd about that...

“I am obviously appalled that white supremacists would open fire on nonviolent, peaceful protesters,” said Nekima Levy-Pounds, president of the Minneapolis chapter of the NAACP, who returned to the site after the shootings.


What's been her response to the previous 3-4 nearby shootings that have taken place over the course of this protest?

Article in the Star & Sickle(Tribune) Sunday the BLM group was calling MPD chief a white supremacist also. So it must mean we are all white supremacists. Talk about judging people by the color of their skin!! :twisted:

I'd be surprised if I learned the Mpls CoP checked the 'white/ Caucasian' box on her employment app. Not that it matters to me.

Interesting how the Red Star is quick to throw a racial description of suspects into the story when the 'victims' are black, but for any other crime report where there is (often) a black perpetrator they won't label the race due to 'sensitivity'. I'm really, really sick of people feeling like they have been offended.

Police have arrested one of the three white men who allegedly fired into a crowd near the Black Lives Matter encampment Monday night.



Police are also very quick to whip out the 'hate crime' thing when a black person has been victim of a crime, but when it is obviously the other way around (remember that incident in Utah over the confederate flag recently where a group of black guys kicked the $h1t out of a couple white guys?) they always find an excuse to eliminate hate crime from the process.

Authorities are weighing whether to treat the shooting of five people protesting near the Minneapolis Police Department’s 4th Precinct Monday night as a hate crime, sources familiar with the investigation said Tuesday morning.


And this:

“We all were terrorized last night,” Brown added. “I’ve never seen racism like that.”


Apparently she hasn't been paying attention to those around her recently...

If the BLM protests disrupt the daily activities of law abiding citizens trying to mind their own business, they are not peaceful. Fortunately the weather is getting colder and these types don't like to go out in the cold.
Donald Trump got more fat women moving in one day than Michelle Obama did in eight years.

I think they are poster's on 4chan and they are definitely full of hate and anger, but not sure they are really organized.
http://youtu.be/XVgpfvwNEwg Eyewitness account of shooting, sounds like they were assaulted.

So by their own testimony they assaulted a group of people for not taking off their masks, while they themselves are wearing masks. Chase them down the street while beating them more. Then play the victim card after getting shot. These BLM people are an embarrassment to themselves and the rest of the country.

That about sums it up. I just cannot for the life of me understand the thought process of this group. Why do they feel they can do what ever they want wherever they want with no regard for anyone but themselves, and as soon as someone calls BS they don't understand why people are pissed off by their actions.
