A Black Lives Matter protest of around 80 people in a tiny Ohio town home to just 13 black residents was overrun by 700 white counterprotesters armed with rifles, handguns and baseball bats at the weekend.
Heavily armed white men and women from motorcycle gangs and 'back the blue' groups flocked to the small town of Bethel Sunday shouting 'Blue lives matter!' and 'All lives matter!' and facing off with the small group of village residents who had been demonstrating peacefully calling for an end to systemic racism and police brutality across America.

In the shocking video, a man is seen walking through the crowds of armed counterprotesters. He stands not responding to the crowd as they come up close to his face and shout at him

Raise your hand if you think that maybe, just maybe, the person who struck the BLM protestor from behind was a BLM or Antifa plant!

Maybe they were peacefully protesting because they would have got their a@@ kicked if they were not peaceful.
Just a guess when it is about 10 to 1 odds.

And then just like that, violence at protests was called “shocking”

“Large swathes of the counterprotesters were thought to have come from out of town, with motorbikes seen carrying out-of-state license plates.”
Outside Agitators?

That did look staged. The way the stars and bars do rag just wanders off.
Whatevs. Sounds like my kind of party though.

demonstrating peacefully calling for an end to systemic racism and police brutality across America. Just before they start looting and burning and pillaging. Stop em before the rioting starts.
To: Zeroisanumber1
Not a good look. I agree. The commies would have looked much better with their heads kicked in.

Notice how "Black Lives Matter" is capitalized but "back the blue" isn't.
It's time somebody created "Back The Blue" and turned it into a fundraising effort to funnel money to President Trump to get around political fundraising laws to compete with "Black Lives Matter", the organization that was created to funnel money to Gropin' Joe Biden to get aroung political fundraising laws.
