On Saturday, several “protests” took place in American cities since it was the one-year anniversary of the death of Breonna Taylor. And then there was the typical violence and civil unrest that has become the nomenclature of peaceful protests.
Why is there still violence over Taylor’s death? Because our news media which has given up reporting the news truthfully lied about every aspect of the Breonna Taylor shooting and they have still never been held accountable.
Crowds appeared in Louisville as people made calls for justice for Taylor who was shot and killed by a Louisville Metro cop when a raid on her drug dealer boyfriend Kenneth Walker’s home went south as Walker opened fire on police during the raid on March 13, 2020. Walker used his girlfriend as a human shield.
The Louisville Metro PD declared an unlawful assembly after protesters started “blocking the roadway and forcing vehicles, while armed, to turn around.”
WATCH:
Protesters are in the 1300 block of River Road. They have been blocking the roadway and forcing vehicles, while armed, to turn around.
We are deeming their actions as an Unlawful Assembly. Arrests will be made to those that refuse to disperse. #LMPD pic.twitter.com/EpReyJJkdr

While protests in Louisville remained peaceful (much respect for that), that’s not what happened in Seattle, Portland, and Los Angeles.
In Seattle, for example, video footage from Blair Nelson, a Campus Reform senior correspondent shows ANTIFA-looking rioters clashing with police officers.

Photojournalist Brendan Gutenschwager tweeted out a video of protesters chanting “jump jump jump” to police officers who were overhead on a skyway over a road in Seattle, where there were reportedly 100 agitators dressed in the ANTIFA uniform of black clothing, ski masks, scarves, sunglasses, motorcycle helmets with padding and whatnot.

The animals spray-painted graffiti n a Starbucks and the herd smashed the windows as well.

The Seattle Police Department said they made 13 arrests, including one for assault on an officer.
Police arrested a total of 13 suspects related to this demonstration. A blotter post with more information will be added to this thread tomorrow morning.

And this was righteous street justice because we all know just how much a Starbucks in Seattle was the cause of Taylor’s death, am I right? #EyeRoll
In the never-ending unrest in Portland, Oregon, there were multiple instances of violence Saturday night as protesters marched to the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse, the same courthouse where rioters set fires to just two days prior. The animals spray-painted
In Portland, where unrest has happened regularly for months, there were several acts of violence on Saturday night. Protesters marched towards the Mark O. Hatfield U.S. Courthouse, which is where rioters set fires on Thursday. Vandals spray-painted “police are murderers” on the federal courthouse.

Jennifer Dowling, a KOIN-TV reporter said someone was talking on a bullhorn telling Taylor protesters that there were people there among them who were not there to protest the shooting death of Breonna but rather were there to agitate and destroy property and that they should be quiet and go home.
Dowling also reported how rioters were trying to tear down plywood boards that were protecting the courthouse.

And you can’t have national riots without some input from the animals in Los Angeles, where several storefronts were damaged by violent rioters.
Andy Ngô, citizen journalist turned editor-at-large at the Post Millennial, shared a video of the damage to stores that had nothing to do with Bronna Taylor’s death.
“Antifa smashed out windows and vandalized businesses in Los Angeles overnight in a riot organized for Breonna Taylor.”

Many of the protesters in Los Angeles were seen carrying black shields with white fists painted on them, and some were waving ANTIFA flags.
Ngô tweeted out that the ANTIFA flag was carried down the street during the LA riot and he pushed the “legacy media” to report on it because as we all know the Fake News and legacy media are in on the whole thing, calling riots with buildings on fire behind them “mostly peaceful” as they did during the 2020 summer riots.

Imagine how Taylor’s family must feel about this, knowing that a lot of the destruction and mayhem was done in her name. It’s chilling that the media doesn’t report that the property damage has nothing to do with Breonna’s death as much as what it means to these goons for anarchy and political violence.
Someone using President Joe Biden’s Twitter account tweeted out about the Breonna Taylor death on Saturday.
“Breonna Taylor’s death was a tragedy, a blow to her family, her community, and America,” Biden wrote. “As we continue to mourn her, we must press ahead to pass meaningful police reform in Congress. I remain committed to signing a landmark reform bill into law.”

Meanwhile, during a presidential debate against then-President Donald Trump Joe Biden said the very animals who were destroying property carrying the ANTIFA flag said that ANTIFA was not a real thing, that it was just an idea.
