I’d like to know the retired firefighter’s political persuasion. Was he a Trump supporter? Or Antifa/BLM?
I’ll be heavily disappointed if he’s a Trump supporter. Our side should not be chunking fire extinguishers at the po-po.
Took 21 replies for someone to ask the question. Not covered in the article. What's a fair assumption?
I strongly suspect that he’s not a Trump supporter.🤔
You know a lot of middle-aged firefighters who are with Antifa?
There was a video of this a couple of days ago. This man (or somebody) was walking across the terrace and he picked up an empty fire extinguisher and tossed it away towards the crowd at the foot of the terrace without even looking. There was a group of helmeted police and demonstrators pressed together (fighting? I don’t know) at the bottom of the terrace and the fire extinguisher fell among them.
In other words, it didn’t look like he was aiming for the police or anybody. He obviously had to know it would hit somebody, so I’m not defending him, but if this is the same incident, he wasn’t standing there clobbering a police officer.
The police officer died the next day of a stroke which the police spokesman said was not connected to getting hit.
Again, not defending this guy at all (unless there was a later part to this that I didn’t see), but the whole thing has morphed into a different scenario.
