Peaceful participants at a rally

If Reuters says they are “peaceful” participants, that means its 100% guaranteed they are rioters, protest and anarchists.

Yeah, the “peaceful protesters” code words are a dead give away what they were really doing.

They were blocking the road and ordered to disperse. Good for the LEOs for not letting this get out of hand.

“Peaceful protests” start off by taking public spaces and roads, followed by attacking people who have every right to use those public facilties. Inevitably followed by rioting, looting and burning.

Stated in the story in the police statement section.

Second row from the bottom 3rd photo seems familiar. There was a video of a peaceful protester that accidently set himself on fire. I think that looks like him doing his dance.

They don’t look like rioters in those pictures.

What about other pictures?
Most of the other riots had “peaceful” parts to start off with, before developing into full blown riots.

"Peaceful" my Big Rosy Red A$$... Democrats figure if no one actually dies after their "free speech," it's "peaceful."

How many broken windows, tagged walls, and burned dumpsters?

“They don’t look like rioters in those pictures.”

I read that they were blocking the street and refused to move.

You’re right, they don’t. But rioting is just the end result of a disagreement that is not settled before the people cross the line because they don’t know what else to do.

My questions are why does a town of 15K people need a 28-year-old activist to help organize protests? Pretty soon, the activists are going to outnumber the city population and they won’t have anyone to protest but themselves.

And, also, why do they need a social injustice reverend? God didn’t create races, he created people. Man created races. So is he a reverend, or just another activist?

I strongly suspect they were blocking people from getting to the polling station. But of course Reuters wouldn’t tell us that.
