Following Richard Spencer’s Thursday talk at the University of Florida, a trio of Spencer’s supporters opened fire just outside Gainesville, Fla., during an altercation with those opposing Spencer’s presence.
According to a statement from the Gainesville Police Department, Tyler Tenbrink, William Fears, and Colton Fears – all from Texas – were arrested and charged with attempted homicide. The 28-year-old Tenbrink, encouraged by the Fears brothers, fired into the crowd during an altercation following Spencer’s speech. The bullet missed the counter-protesters and struck a nearby building.
While Tenbrink and William Fears, 30, both have criminal records – the former is a convicted felon, while the latter had previously been convicted of aggravated kidnapping and criminal trespass – both, as Gainesville police said, “have shown connections to extremist groups,” a fact highlighted by both the Anti-Defamation League and ADL researcher Mark Pitcavage....

I looked up Richard Spencer and Jason Kessler (I think that’s his name) od Unite the Right when the Charlottesville stuff happened. They’re both agents provocateur. Spencer is hired by the leftist outfit The Atlantic to do a year long documentary or book (can’t remember which) on racism. Kessler is even more obvious, worked for 0bola’s campaign and was an Occupuke.
They both have pristine Ivy League back grounds.
bkmk
Because you’re NEVER going to get the “true” story from Think Progress.
Nor do I want to give them my attention or links.
Possibly, these idiots didn’t intend to actually shoot anyone, just firing warning shots to send a message? After all the ANTIFAGS have been talking shyt about starting Civil War II on Nov 4. Whatever the reason it was an insanely dumbass thing to do.
