‘Cops and Klan Go Hand in Hand,’ Chant Dallas Anti-Confederacy Protesters
Breitbart ^ | 20 Aug 2017 | BOB PRICE

Anti-Confederacy protesters took to the streets in Dallas, Texas, and attacked police officers at the end of a heated round of standoffs. Approximately 2,300 people turned out for the Saturday evening protest that lingered into the night.

“Cops and Klan go hand in hand,” chanted one group of protesters dressed in all-black, including masks, Fox4 Dallas reported. That group split off from the main march and headed toward the targeted Confederate monument. The local Fox affiliate reported some of the protesters donned gas masks and began throwing bottles at police officers.

Police reported several arrests, but no injuries, after they finally dispersed the crowd after the group’s permit expired at 9:30 p.m. Following the attacks, police put on riot gear and mounted patrol officers helped clear the park.

The rally, dubbed “Dallas Against White Supremacy,” began around 7:30 p.m. and drew more than 2,000 people to City Hall. Protesters carried signs denouncing white supremacy and President Donald Trump.

That sure is a lot of wasted energy. Maybe too many of us are too lazy. Attending a protest would be a cheap date in between football games.

Attending a protest is nothing more than narcissistic virtue signaling. It’s all about optics.

Micah Xavier Johnson killed 5 Dallas officers and wounded 9 just a little over a year ago in a demonstration just like this.

The Black police officers probably didn’t like that chant.

It’s a protest chant. So, now established as metaphysical truth in the minds of all Leftists. Forever.

This isn’t Antifa? Or has word gone out to not use that name anymore?

They sure look and act like Antifa.

Notice the difference when the police are not told to stand down? Or ordered to push the groups together to foster violence?
