Hum' where's the video...?
Betcha, it's more like one guy yelling at him...
There are many many MSM stories lately following the discredited scripts of the past:
1) The story is prepared
2) Agents provocateur are sent forth
3) Whether they get their scripted response, or not, the story is reported
4) Because it’s not the accuracy of the story it’s the seriousness of the charge
This is not coincidence.
So, WaPo cites as their source for this account, a reporter from... the WaPo. Another example of the fine "journalism" we have in America today. I mean, I'm sure they wouldn't make anything up, would they?
I’m sure it was the same folks who spat on John Lewis during the anti-Obamacare rally in DC a while back.
Dude belongs in jail.

On July 4, 2014, Southall was involved in a two-hour standoff with police. At 7:03 a.m., officers arrived on the scene at Fourth Street and Richard Arrington Boulevard, where they said Southall was armed with a rifle and another gun in a holster.” The man was saying he had a right to bear arms, and had second amendment rights,” said Lt. Sean Edwards said at the time.
Southall surrendered at 10:35 a.m. and police said they were sending him for medical evaluation. “I had a shotgun on my shoulder and a copy of the constitution and I was teaching people about the law,’’ he said. “Because I know the law and know my rights, that’s what makes me a threat. That’s what makes me a bad person. That’s what makes me dangerous.”
Five months later, in December 2014, Southall made headlines again when he and another man were arrested following a Black Lives Matter protest and march at a Homewood Walmart. About 40 people were involved in a peaceful protest, but trouble broke up when the group began to disperse. Southall, and Randall Corey Anderson, 31, of Georgia were taken into custody, and the confrontation was caught on video that got attention on social media.
Anderson was charged was criminal trespass; Southall with criminal trespass, resisting arrest and possession of marijuana. The charges were eventually dismissed for both.
In April 2015, Southall was arrested during a Black Lives Matter protest downtown, a protest that started in front of police headquarters. They carried a banner up and down Fourth Avenue, literally stepping in front of cars, pickups and 18-wheelers so they couldn’t pass.
Protester Avee-Ashanti Shabazz, a co-founder of the Birmingham movement - was handcuffed and put into the police van. Southall, again, went down in dramatic fashion. He was on the ground, surrounded by officers while he hurled curse words and racially-based accusations against them. Misdemeanor charges are still pending in that case.
Just last month, Southall was arrested and tased again during a protest in front of the Homewood City Jail following the in-custody death of 18-year-old Kindra Chapman, who committed suicide hours after being arrested on a robbery charge. Southall and five others were taken into custody after police say they walked in U.S. 31, once again blocking traffic. That case has not yet gone to court either.
He’s had other run-ins with police too, but to date has no criminal convictions. Just recently, several charges against him were dismissed for other incidents he’s had with police — including a scuffle that led to he and a police officer tumbling off the front porch of a Birmingham home.
Trump saved his a$$ by having security remove him
Go Trump
These scumbags are not used to people fighting them back. They are used to the cowering college students that curl up into a fetal position at the slightest trigger word. They need to be shoved out of every place they show up! Love it!
“Don’t choke me, bro!”
[...and was surrounded by SEVERAL WHITE MEN who APPEARED to be kicking and punching him...]
Typical Washington Post BS.
I’ve got a new tee shirt for this boy: BLACKS LIVE FATTER
Anybody who identifies himself with racist clothing and speech at a Presidential candidate’s rally must be thrown to the ground, tightly cuffed and bound, arrested, put into a forensic psych unit under heavy security and held without bail.
The headline should have read “BLM protester finds out what an Alabama Azz Kicking is” :-)
False flag. It’s all they’ve got.
He looks like he probably rocks himself back to sleep every afternoon when he tries to get up to begin his day. He was probably only there for the free donuts.
OH MY GOSH! SOME WHITE ON BLACK VIOLENCE!
Boy, talk about the Media’s Holy Grail...

‘bout time.
Uppity whitey alert!!!!
“The racially charged altercation occurred in Birmingham, famous in the 1960s as a center of the civil rights struggle, and led some to note that Trump’s supporters at the rally were nearly all white — in a city with a black majority.”
Oh really?
Who made it racially charged?
The fact he was able to give an interview NOT from a hospital bed shows he was not mishandled.
I can see it now, like an old cartoon character from the 1930s...
“They hit me and kicked me and knocked me down and scratched up my clothes then they kicked me and hurt me and then...they kicked me!”
