IF THIS KIND OF VIOLENCE WERE HAPPENING AT RIGHT-WING PROTESTS, IT WOULD BE ALL OVER THE PRESS,

INSTEAD OF — DELIBERATELY — BURIED: 

 

Gunman shot driver, then hid weapon and continued to protest, Provo police say.

 

The victim was driving a white SUV on University Avenue and was attempting to turn onto Center Street when a group of protestors began “crowding around the vehicle. A male protester ran to the SUV on the passenger side, pointed a handgun at (the) driver and shot one round through the window,” according to a a synopsis of the incident by Provo Deputy Police Chief John Guyerman.

 

The driver, who was struck by a bullet, “hit the gas trying to leave the situation,” Guyerman said.

 

 

CNN headline, probably: Right Wing Extremist Runs Over Crowd of Mostly Peaceful Protesters.

Plus:

As the SUV is speeding away, the gunman ran after the vehicle and fired a second round that went through the rear passenger window, according to police.

 

After the shooting, video shows the gunman then “conceals the firearm and continues to protest,” Guyerman said. “This same protester later approached another vehicle at 500 North and University Avenue, striking and breaking the window with the handgun.”

 

 

Like I said.

THIS JUST IN FROM THE HOUSE OF STEPHANOPOULOS: 

 

Going to National Parks Is Racist, Declares ABC News.

 

“Dear Libs: You aren’t going to shame Americans into accepting collective responsibility for crimes they didn’t commit.

 

You’re just going to alienate them, and they’re not going to listen to you when there are real problems to solve.

 

I guess you want a Trump landslide in November, huh?”

Are state parks still not racist?

I am sure that was written long before the actual speech.  
 

 

 

Funny how everyone ran with the same headlines this morning.

...fortunately, prominent African American Civil Rights attorney Leo Terrell, eloquently chimed in to the contrary....and he is a staunch Democrat....so AOL or Huff-N-Puff Post vs Leo?....he is historically pretty outspoken, yet it is surprising and refreshing to see him continually say he is "embarrassed to be a Democrat" lately........
