Long Branch, NJ police in full riot gear were dispatched to the vicinity of Pier Village Saturday night after a Juneteenth celebration turned violent.
According to Domigos Saldidas, public safety director of Long Branch, multiple officers from neighboring towns and State Police responded to help disperse the crowds.
“Right now we’re trying to have peace in Long Branch,” Saldidas said.
In one video recorded at the scene, people could be seen dancing on top of a moving car.
But a video that was sent to us by local residents reveals a lot of violence contrary to local reports.
In the video, a white girl is brutally beaten and the crowd just cheers!

Officers locked down the area, according to a report, as hundreds of people took to the streets to riot.
The Lakewood Scoop reported that people are allegedly trapped in businesses where work with no way out, according to the site.
The reason for the riot is unknown at this time.
The police advised residents to avoid the area.
Oh, for pity's sake. Extreme eye roll.
What was corrected?
Maybe she was there with a black boyfriend.
And how are you going to use it well in a chaotic crowd?
Time for us to riot and tear it down, then.
If it does, I hope CCW holders do something about it.
Time to engage in some self-defense and eliminate the threat these folks pose for the rest of their sorry lives.
The General was not a Democrat. He was a Union, i.e. Republican, General and the Governor of Texas was not involved. The slaveowners were still Democrats and had vbeen breaking the law by not freeing their slaves.

Same here. Never heard of it before last year.
I did not see that listed in the wiki hence my question.
Anyway, as some have said, not all slave-holders would be Dems and not all non holders were Republicans. Hell even the much-maligned McClellan was a Dem.
It may be the trend but it’s not quite that simple. Certainly not today as Dems love Lincoln.
Long Branch isn’t the best shore town in NJ to begin with. Riots may be new but probably not the beating.
I’m 64 and had never, ever heard the term “Juneteenth” in my entire life until last year. Not once. And I used to live in Texas.
It's been a State Holiday in Texas for over 40 years.
apparently wyt pepo aren’t allowed at Juneteenth celebrations by the colorism police.

I never said I would use it in a chaotic crowd.
HISTORY: Not all slaves were freed by the Emancipation Proclamation, nor via Juneteenth. Only the slaves of the REBEL states were freed then. Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation was a wartime effort to split and weaken the South; he did NOT free any slaves in the Northern states. Slaves in the non-rebelling border states had to wait for the 13th Amendment, effective December 18, 1865.
