Oh look, turns out the "used tear gas to clear peaceful protesters" was made up

my Park Police source says the agency made its decision to use smoke cannisters at that moment because of what was being thrown at...
officers, not because President Trump planned to make an unannounced walk to the church. Park Police will be releasing a statement later today.

Retraction to be printed on page D55 after the banner headline on the original story.

Bmy says no ducking way that's not true.

Good. I knew in one of the videos I saw I saw something fly across the screen at police. It definitely did look like a water bottle. I’m
Glad the truth has come out but don’t expect this to make it.

A million people were crying out about the use of tear gas on peaceful protestors, yet not one clear video has been posted.
The one video I saw that was attributed to the event was from a distance, behind the park police, who were walking away from the camera and INTO the clouds of (whatever you prefer to think it was.) So the cops tear gassed themselves, if you believe the ever lying left.

Doesn't matter, the narrative is out and all the Karen's on the Facebooks in the burbs are decrying the absolute tyranny of OMB...

They knew this yesterday and chose to run the story as is anyway.
If you have any doubts about their intent, the msm coverage of this whole thing makes it crystal clear. Get rid of Trump by any means necessary.

In RI the ANTIFA mod were hurling smoke grenades at the police in order to skew their view of them trying to break into the mall for looting.
Only after did the police respond

They forget, we’ve seen real-time video, plain to see what actually happened. They can say “peaceful protester” all day, we know the truth.
Posted on 6/2/20 at 12:26 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
They were not peaceful, I mean 80% are probably there for the right reason but those 20% ruin it for everyone else

I think I would ask what is the physical reaction for horses that walk through tear gas. While the park police had on gas masks and in theory could have walked through the tear gas, the horses did not. Does tear gas not affect horses?

I want to hear you, bruh, but I'm going to need more than Twitter to make it happen.

Were they assault smoke cannisters?

Marie Harf was just about in tears over this on Outnumbered.

Good thing we have a video

You can tell from a video that it was tear gas and not smoke?
Jesus. You radical leftists are amazing.
