Ocasio-Cortez, Democrat Leaders, Suggest ‘White Supremacists’ Caused Violence at Riots
Breitbart ^ | 5/31/2020 | Neil Munro

Posted on 05/31/2020 10:32:28 AM PDT by bitt

New York Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez repeated Democrat claims “white supremacists” were responsible for violence as riots raged nationwide over the death of George Floyd.

“There are increasing reports and investigations that white supremacists may be infiltrating these protests, breaking windows and destroying property,” said an Instagram post by Ocasio-Cortez. “If anything seems off to you, DOCUMENT IT. Always check who is organizing,”

(see tweets)

...The Democrats’ claims came as other tweets suggested that “far-right extremists” hope for more violence. But a report by Vice.com did not provide any evidence that “white nationalists” were leading the riots:

Far-right extremists are showing up, with guns, to the protests against police brutality that have exploded across the country.

Others are egging on the violence from behind their computers, urging followers to carry out acts of violence against black protesters with the goal of sparking a “race war.”

Their presence makes an uneasy addition to the escalating unrest, which was triggered by the death of George Floyd, a black man who was choked to death by a white Minneapolis police officer earlier this week.

The article cited a few “far-right extremists” standing at the periphery of left-wing protests, under the dramatic headline “Far-Right Extremists Are Hoping to Turn the George Floyd Protests Into a New Civil War.”

The sons and daughters of privileged white liberal elites (antifa), and criminal psychopaths of the black community joined hands to burn down our cities and loot our stores.

And the press is providing cover for them...

The burning was NOT a tribute to George Floyd... it gave the finger to every decent person in the country. The press and democrats stand with the looters, psychopaths, and thugs... Remember that...

That’s the ugly truth.

This wasn’t Selma...

“If anything seems off to you, DOCUMENT IT. Always check who is organizing,”

Let's wait for those documents. I'm sure they will be published any moment now.

That’s odd, I don’t see the MSM’s favorite “without evidence” claim anywhere in these stories.

Total bullshit. All I see in the videos is blacks breaking windows, looting, and creating arson. A few whites are in the mix, but yet to see a Confederate flag or any Neo-Nazi symbols.

I’ve been watching quite a bit of the violence. You’re wrong. There are quite a few whites in the crowd inciting violence, but they are the Antifa types, young, backpack wearing — why are so many of the whites wearing backpacks in these crowds?—, thugs, both male and female, some with skateboards, masked, but definitely white, inciting the first breaking of windows, throwing of bricks, etc. It is THEY who are starting the violence when a demonstration is essentially peaceful.

Who is placing pallets of bricks at convenient places in the areas where there is no construction going on? Why are they placed about a block apart? How is the done? Who brings in a flatbed truck with a forklift and drops them off prior to the demonstration? THIS IS ORGANIZED and the Antifa criminals are paid to be there, instructed to do what they do. If you watch, you see many of these white thugs taunting the police. There was one in NYC, trying to get the police to shoot him with a rubber bullet. They complied. He was back minutes later, taunting them again. No way was he and his cohorts black. I watched a white kid with a skateboard, walk up from a crowd of peaceful marchers and SMASH the plateglass window of a bank with his skateboard, then walk along smashing more windows. . . businesses like. Some blacks tried to stop him; he shook them off and continued.

Many of the arrestees have numbers written indelibly on their arms to call to be bailed out if arrested. . . It’s pre-arranged. The picture in Twitter showing the arm clearly is of a white arm. That guy was arrested in St. Paul for inciting violence in the essentially peaceful protest.

I agree that many of the rioters and looters are black. It’s inescapable to see that, but even in the looters, you see whites grabbing things. But a lot of the crowds are composed of mixed races. . . But a lot of the most vehement and violent of the rioters are Antifa types.
