ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. ­­­– A small group of rioters took to the streets of Albuquerque Sunday night after a mostly peaceful Black Lives Matter protest. The rioters smashed out windows, started fires in streets and shot at police. Organizers of the Sunday march said those who turned to violence and vandalism were not part of their group. "I think we want to move away from black and brown folks being violent or aggressors. Like, that's not our thing. We just want to be heard, we just want to start a movement and open up a conversation,” said Hossanna Scott, an organizer.

Hossanna Scott and Kieran Freeman helped set the pre conditions for the vandalism that occurred sunday night. It was a small protest but they are giving aid and comfort the enemy. IMHO.

Albuquerque has a segment of the population that is waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble.

Don’t care.

Go home.

Those jackasses with their hands up in the air are surrendering.

Take them back to Afghanistan.

The arson, the looting, the violence, would never have occurred had the police not found it necessary to deal with these “protestors” blocking streets and creating chaos.

So yeah. They’re part of it.

They openly allowed the thugs to take over. It has nothing to do with the dead man and everything to do with the democrat tradition of parading the corpse for monetary and political gain.

Yeah, either by intent, or just by being members of the 'Useful Idiots' brigade - they provide cover for the AntiFA/Anarchist mob.

OK...Good.

So the first step you must take is to send the troublemakers home.

Freeze them out of any relationship with your group.

If they come into your town in spite of your efforts, then your group must go home and leave the bad guys out there totally exposed to the public eye.

Any thing less and you are exposed as BS.

Please.

Why would anyone believe a Dem Activist Group would take responsibility?

Why?

The MN Gov and two MN Mayors lied and said 80% of the arrests where from people in other states.

Turned out 90% are good ole’ locals.

Well they have a problem then because these guys are following them around either undermining them or else giving them plausible deniability.
