A person reported to be a supporter of the Patriot Muster militia has been shot and killed at a protest in Denver, allegedly by a counterprotester with the BLM-Antifa rally.
The militia supporter maced a counterprotester, who then pulled out his handgun and shot dead the militia supporter, the Denver Post reported.
Rival rallies had been called for Saturday afternoon by the two opposing groups.

Important context: man in “Black Guns Matter” shirt urges conservatives to mace him. “F*ck around and find out,” he says. Another man shoots the victim off screen during the altercation. pic.twitter.com/hzPC1gmQvO— Ian Miles Cheong (@stillgray) October 11, 2020
Sounds like an uncivil war.
Violent Biden supporters.
The agitator then celebrates the victim’s death. He is just as guilty as the shooter. https://t.co/poMS8jX6Qk— Ian Miles Cheong (@stillgray) October 11, 2020

Looks like the gun was already pulled.
Good thing Cops were so close to arrest the Idea that murdered him.
Reports are the shooter and backpack guy both work for a Denver news station. The station confirms two of their employees were arrested, but don’t say why.
The conservative rally was going on a different area than the BLM/Antifa group. But, the BLM/Antifa group had to go over and follow the conservative group. Why couldn’t Antifa/BLM mind their own business where they were. They went out of their way to start violence once again.
Why are they calling the ‘patriot’ group white supremists? If they don’t have any proof of this, they need to button it up.
Roger that.
Pretty stupid to use mace as a defensinve move, but the dead guy may have genuinely believed that was his only chance to survive.
In Denver, jury nullification gets the shooter off. No Colorado prosecutor would bring a case. (/sarc - I think)
Appears that the agitator was the guy in the Blac Guns Matter tshirt while the guy with the gun was a white security guard. What or whom exactly was he guarding??
Wonder when it’s going to be enough.
If you watch more video before the shooting, the Patriot Muster attendees were peacefully leaving after their event. BLM/Antifa antagonists were following and threatening the ones leaving. The shooter doesn’t have any legal excuse for shooting dead someone who sprayed him with a substance after being followed and threatened.
You can see them on earlier video stalking the Patriot group. This is the same shit as Portland, intentional shooting. I bet the guy who started the argument was in on it, give them a reason.
What would be so odd if the Denver tv station hired Antifa types? The Commission on Presidential Debates could only find an “independent” moderator for the cancelled debate who had been an employee of one of the candidates. For the VP debate, they could find only a woman who wrote a slurpy biography about how wonderful Pelosi is. Good labor is in short supply; ain’t no way they could find a debate moderator who is impartial.
