Acting violent and tough. Surrounding a car.

Surprised when people take them seriously.

The world will not miss any of them.

Maybe people will think twice about threatening violence in places that actually value the 2nd Amendment.

They won’t. They think police are hunting blacks. What makes you think they’ll understand more people have died as a result of the violent protests than unarmed blacks did at the hands of police in all of 2019?

I don’t think they’re smart.

I'm sure you're as pure as the wind driven snow and never wish bad things upon people you disagree with.

Why the hell did the police drag the guy into the middle of the street to do cpr on him! Couldn't they have worked on him on the sidewalk where he was when the bullets started flying?

Well, was the guy that got shot white are black? I need to know if I should protest or not.


White with a black girlfriend.

Complete speculation here because I’m not sure if this is the same girl.

Look at the beginning of the this Hiram guy’s video when they’re protesting at the police station. It looks like he picks up what could be the victim?

This chick that described the shooting said that the guy in the car “shot Garrett, the boyfriend of Whitney whose a quadriplegic. He’s been his care taker for like ten years.....





Going back to the beginning of the video, is this the same chick?




Look a little closer at the pic and you see a girl in a wheelchair....and a guy with a gun.




Now, if someone was walking up to your car in this crowd with a rifle, what do they think is going to happen?

When I saw him with his gun at the beginning of the stream, I thought “That’s not a good idea.”

Just had a point blank range armed standoff in Eugene. Maga dude in truck pulled handgun at protestor and protestor returned the favor. No shots fired but it was intense.

I get the sense from various protest videos that the male protestors are often effeminate drama queens and the chicks try to act all tough and hard.

How “peaceful” a protest was the guy expecting to take part in if he can pull a piece on a guy being hassled in a car?

The moron who was killed was forcibly trying to get into the car To go after the driver. I consider the act similar to that of a carjacking.
