CNA Staff, Jul 14, 2020 / 05:36 pm MT (CNA).- A man in St. Louis has been charged with four counts of fourth-degree assault after police say he threw punches at people praying and defending a statue of St. Louis during a recent protest.
Terrence Page, 34, admitted to News 4 that he threw the punches, saying, “Real change doesn’t happen unless you take those risks.”
He said he thought there were KKK members defending the statue, and argued that “their presence alone is terrorism, because they instill fear.”
The incident took place June 27 near the Apotheosis of St. Louis statue, which sits in the city’s Forest Park in front of the Saint Louis Art Museum. It was erected in 1906 and depicts Louis IX of France, for whom the city is named.
In recent weeks, some protestors have called for the removal of the statue, as well as the renaming of the city. On June 27, some 200 people surrounded the statue in protest. One organizer said the statue “represents hate” and “is not a symbol of our city in 2020.”
Catholics defending the statue at the protest prayed the rosary and sang, and several police officers separated them from the protesters.
Videos posted online appear to show Page confronting counter-protestors, growing agitated, and punching at least person in the head repeatedly. Police say there were four victims of the assault. One of the individuals was later diagnosed with a concussion, according to local media.
Page defended his actions, telling News 4, “Maybe you can slap some sense into somebody sometimes. And they'll think differently.”

All you get on the “news”
Is ORANGE MAN BAD.
Terry needs 15 minutes
Of Fame ,forsure.
He saw people praying in front of a saint’s statue. Naturally, he mistook them to be white supremists.
The judge needs to ask him:
“Are you really this dumb, or are you just pulling The Court’s leg?”

I watched the video of this guy. He was blowing an air-horn in the ears of peaceful catholics praying at the statue. He was pushing and shoving. He was yelling in their faces.
He deserved a baseball bat to the skull. I clearly don’t have the patience and wisdom those statue protectors had.

Maybe the next person you assault shoots you and you stop your hateful thinking permanently.
If the liberals hadn’t pushed for the mental hospitals to be shuttered back in the ‘70s and ‘80s for “compassionate” reasons, psychos like this would have been getting some treatment, instead of going nuts on innocent people.
If one of them had shot him dead it might have sent a message.
If the 13% want racial war, they’ll get racial war.
its clear the govt will not protect us...
You say insane. I call them evil.
Notice the thug said “Their(those protecting statue) very presence is terrorism...”
They see every religious person as their enemy to kill. We are the targets to be exterminated.
Whatever they are, it isn’t “insane”
