Day after Charlottesville, Virginia chaos.
Last night, in Richmond, a local CBS reporter, who was not acting in that capacity but filming on his mobile phone, which is legal, was assaulted by an anti-racism demonstrator. You can hear the man being told not to film, prompting a response from the reporter, noting he can film wherever he wants on public ground.
Thats when what appears to be a stick-like object strikes him in the head. He received four staples at the hospital (via WTVR):
Laura French @lfrenchnews Our @CBS6 photojournalist assaulted in the head while shooting protests in Richmond. In the hospital getting stitches. Stop the VIOLENCE! 12:22 AM - Aug 14, 2017

Stop filming bro, one of the protesters yells.
I can film whatever I want, the CBS 6 staffer replies. Get out of my face.
At that point video shows the photographer's phone knocked out of his hands. Video then captures a protester hit the photojournalist with what he described as a big stick.
Officers responded and the photojournalist was transported via ambulance to Retreat Doctors' Hospital. He received four staples in his skull and was released.
"This is not a peaceful protest," he wrote.

Richmond police tweeted just after 10:20 p.m. that the protest was underway on W. Broad Street and Laurel. The protests dispersed around 12:20 A.M. this morning.

nothing “anti-racist” about the protester, it was a militant Leftist.
Stalinists lie. Always
Another story the msm is trying to cover up even though it is one of them.
Where “anti-racist” means....
White-hating communist thug.
“anti racist”??
How bout the more apt “anarchist”?
Or “thug”?
Or “p****”?
Fascism takes on all forms in the Democrat Party. This is just another form of fascism.

He received four staples in his skull and was released.
“This is not a peaceful protest,” he wrote.

Just speculating but if he were not the one struck etc would that have been his comment?
I know redundancy rearing its head.
‘Democracy Dies in Darkness’
A “journalist” calling himself @WaronDumb stated on Twitter that the protester “forgot” to not be violent in defense of this.
THIS is what leftist "tolerance" is really all about.
I think these antiFA (anti-First Amendment) thugs are too stupid to be anarchists...
Apparently they haven’t read the book or even watched the movie.

Wow!!! A reporter finally tells the truth.
I guess you just have to knock some sense into him.
I’m not so sure they can read :p

Why would a group openly associate themselves with murderous Communists?
I think we all know.
Anti-fascist now means fascist, and anti-racist now means racist.
