Number one. I am not a liberal. Neither am I conservative. I would rather not align myself with either.

Number two. I am not a anti-gun.

So wait - they intentionally got an all black escort because of non-intentional white protestors. If that is not trying to make some sort of political racial stunt I don't what is.

While I don't agree with some of their stances, I appreciate that a minority viewpoint was aired in non-violent civil disobedience is something that we all need to be careful to recognize as American as apple pie.

I'd be careful throwing it out with the bathwater just because the group doing it is distasteful to you.

There are black organizations with guns, you know. They volunteered. They seen a black women scared and wearing a bulletproof vest...and a white mob, some with confederate flags and nooses...but it’s the armed black escort that is making it racial.

Looking more and more like a tin-pot dictator with her own little private army all the time. I wonder if they have little SS badges on their collars? Are they wearing brown shirt?



Seems like equal opportunity versions of these guys.

Glad to see they volunteered, but the headline made it seem the she wanted to make a point by doing so.

It seems they are the ones focusing on the racial aspects when the protesters were about rights and freedom not race. Did they do anything criminal or against the law?

Gotta do what you gotta do, But did you notice the media highlighting 'rightwing' and 'black', trying to add a little powder to the situation. May the media and the dividers take the first bullet.
