BREAKING: BLM Protestors, Including George Floyd’s Nephew, Storm Iowa State Capitol
National File ^ | 04/08/2021 | Jack Hadfield

Posted on 04/08/2021 1:01:46 PM PDT by Tench_Coxe

BLM protestors, including the nephew of George Floyd, have invaded the Iowa State Capitol, clashing with state troopers when they tried to arrest one woman.

BLM supporters gathered outside the Iowa Capitol on Thursday morning as part of a “Kill the Racist Bills” protest, organised by the “Advocates for Social Justice” group. The bills in question include an anti-defunding the police bill, a bill that allows citizens to legally push through protestors blocking the road with vehicles, and another bill that would ban any diversity and inclusion training in schools, universities, and Iowa government agencies. On the Facebook page for the event, the legislation was described as “racist and dangerous.”

WTH does Iowa got to do with it?

It was the smallest three-syllable word they could remember.

The joke is, that they will riot, burn, rape, pillage, and destroy cities even if he is convicted. They never need a reason to riot.

Just imagine if an Iowa State Capital Cop killed a BLM member.
There would be cities burned and looted.

Unlike the silence from DC Police, and Justice Dept on the murder of
an Air Force Female Veteran in DC Protest.

said, " rules occupying a capital is Insurrection"
No. The new Attorney general said when Antifa/BLM/boogoloo was there it took place at night. So it's OK.
This attack in Iowa Capitol took place during the day so they can see better. So I'm sure the Attorney General will be OK with this.

Des Moines and the state of Iowa do not seem to be the usual venue for the “Burn, Loot, Mayhem” crowd, what attracted them to this place at this time.

Perhaps it is not so much “attracted” to the area, as paid and bused in as a flash mob.

“a bill that allows citizens to legally push through protesters blocking the road with vehicles”

At a speed determined by the drivers choice.

So criminal George Floyd’s nephew is involved. Did he not get his share of the 27 million Minneapolis handed over to the Floyd family to buy peace.

“a bill that allows citizens to legally push through protestors blocking the road with vehicles,”

I’m betting that this isn’t what the bill actually says; that it’s about enforcing your unalienable right to self-defense. Which means, if your life is in danger, then yeah “pushing through protestors” should not be automatically a crime.
