A news editor for a small, independent newspaper was in support of the protests-turned-riots, until they broke into the paper's office and she had to take cover from looters and vandals in the basement.
Leigh Tauss, an editor for the progressive news outlet Indy Week in North Carolina, was stunned to find that the protesters-turned-rioters did not look favorably upon her business when they swept the area.
She tweeted out on Saturday, saying "the crowd is extremely peaceful and groups and many are wearing masks and trying to keep distance."
The crowd is extremely peaceful and groups and many are wearing masks and trying to keep distance.
And then on Sunday morning, Tauss posted what had become of her office at the hands of the rioters, tweeting "I’m devastated. We are a progressive newspaper. Last night I was inside when the first brick was thrown."
A similar scenario happened with ESPN sportswriter Chris Martin Palmer, who encouraged rioters to burn down a low-income housing area in Minneapolis. But when they showed up to his place, he did not hold back in referring to the rioters as "animals."
Tauss marked the escalations on Twitter.
Several business with windows smashed in Wilmington street. All the wreckage from last night was cleaned up this morning
Can you say irony.
A conservative is just a Liberal who got mugged.
There are lots of conservatives being manufactured as we speak.
so is she still in support of them.
this is like the soy boys who got their window smashed as they were giving a thumbs up to the rioters
All that matters to these people is “The Revolution”, even if they are personally injured by it. It’s like their religion, and what they center their life around.
Well by all means! Your lucky to be alive dumbass.
So her newspaper is progressive. Then is it safe to assume that she believes that no one needs a gun and that everyone can merely call 911 and have their safety assured/
The woke will wake up eventually.
Reality bites.
Reminds me of the welcome refuge signs in Sweden.

To these people “progressive” means soup.
Peaceful bricks were thrown through her windows. Imagine that?
First, I have no sympathy for her. Also, does she really think these rodents actually read???
Sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.
She’s devastated. And all in the same breath, she says they are a progressive newspaper.
So what is she saying? That a violent mob hell bent on destruction, should know that they are to not destroy a liberal news outlet, which is run by people down with the struggle????
Let’s be real here. What does her publication being progressive have to do with her understandable anger about being attacked by the mob?????
I thank God for tbese reports of justice being administered to libtards of all kinds.
Karma, baby!
I looked her up. Her progressive white skin didn’t save her. Buy a cheap SKS, Leigh Tauss, and learn how to use it. Buy lots of stripper clips. Make them fear you. Sing the socialist Internationale while blowing them to pieces, dear lady:
Debout! les damnés de la terre!
Debout! les forçats de la faim!
La raison tonne en son cratère,
C’est l’éruption de la fin.
The general translation comes out to: screw you, bastards.
