  • White supremacists involved in the violence of BLM demonstrations

    I became curious when in Raleigh demonstrations this weekend those arrested for violence were mostly white.

    Police: Richmond riots instigated by white supremacists disguised as Black Lives Matter


    RICHMOND, Va. – Riots in downtown Richmond over the weekend were instigated by white supremacists under the guise of Black Lives Matter, according to law enforcement officials.

    Protesters tore down police tape and pushed forward toward Richmond police headquarters, where they set a city dump truck on fire.

    Police declared the event an “unlawful assembly” and ordered people to leave, later deploying tear gas.

    Six people were arrested. The mayor of Richmond thanked the Black Lives Matter protesters he said tried to stop the white supremacists from spearheading the violence.

    “Their mission is simple, not the Richmond we know,” said Mayor Levar Stoney.

    Besides the police department, damage also occurred in and around the VCU campus.

    I'm not sure what your point is.

    Are you trying to dismiss all the violence perpetrated during the riots as caused by white supremacists?

        I see no evidence that white supremacists were involved besides bare assertions.

          Yeah. Exactly who are the unnamed "law enforcement officials"? A high ranking member in the department or some part-time dispatcher who lives next to the reporter.

          I think the thing to watch here is if this gets picked up by the MSM. If not then I think it is safe to conclude that this is B.S. since this is just the sort of thing that fits so well into their narrative.

            Even if it gets picked up by the MSM, that's still not a guarantee that it's not BS.

              True. But if they ignore it that is a pretty good sign.

                  Do have any other source that finds this inaccurate. The citation is from law enforcement and specific.

                    No law enforcement person is named in your piece, we do not have the names of the arrested 'white supremacists' and their actual affiliations. And you have the gall to ask us for evidence?

                        White supremacists are involved in inciting violence in what was intended as peaceful demonstration.

                            Yeah. That's a bad thing. Especially because the BLM crowd rarely needs help inciting violence in peaceful demonstrations.
