Was Antifa responsible?
The usual suspects are planting a “false flag” theory — that Donald Trump supporters caused the State Street riots Saturday (05-30-2020) in Madison WI.
“Trump people on now on State Street … agitating,” said Rose Johnson-Brown on social media.
“Agent provocateurs, no doubt,” chimed in Helena Perkins-White.
“We had a great protest. Now white folks are downtown breaking windows,” claimed Brandi Grayson, who has a paying contract from the Madison school district to start BLM chapters.
Milek Olson claimed “Fifty edgy white boys from small rural towns … heading up State Street to wipe out the demonstrators,” alerted another.
“There’s my proof!” exulted Jessica Fess.
“I was there and these white folks looting were not there today [at the Capitol rally] and nobody knows them! … FAKE, PAID white agitators plants out there that nobody knows smashing up stuff. They don’t know Madison is too small and we recognize EVERBODY! They are not us and this is facts!”
Our … acquaintances are following the lead of liberals, progressives and socialists in Minnesota. “Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz on Saturday told reporters he’d heard unconfirmed reports that white supremacists were coming from elsewhere,“ WCCO Twin Cities reported.
“A vague claim and a lie,” the Federalist counters. “It turns out that most of those arrested were actually Minnesota residents.”
The provocateurs could very well have been Antifa, which has been active in Madison and is largely white. But hardly Trump supporters!
Again from social media: “Reporters are doing crop shots which only show Black people,” Tiffany Sneed complained.
Um, sorry, corrected Aaron Konkol. “I was there. All day. I wish I could say it was all white people who did the looting. It definitely was not.”
But it was still outside agitators, Konkol assured. “I absolutely think that it was planted agitators provoking impressionable, already infuriated youth, though. Tony Robinson’s grandma was saying the cops gave the main agitator the bullhorn he was using when leading the crowd from the city county building to the cop shop to State.”
The cops are in on the conspiracy!
Thankfully, Trump is designating Antifa a terrorist organization.
If they’re outside agitators, that isn’t stopping Bianca Gomez’ Freedom Inc., Brandi Grayson’s Urban Triage, the Party for Socialism & Liberation and Free-The-350 Bail Fund from raising their bail money and paying the rioters’ legal expenses. As of 3 this afternoon (05-31-2020) they had raised $13,000.
⇒ Whereas, the Boys & Girls Club of Dane County had raised $104,000 to help the 75 businesses wrecked by the riots. Donate here.
Blaska’s Bottom Line: Good on Michael Johnson and the Boys & Girls Club.

Regardless of the color of these hoodlums, they will all vote Democrat 100%. No chance they are Trump supporters. But the left will blame Trump for all the violence and looting. This will soon turn into a Charlottesville story to hang around Trump’s neck. If one rioter gets run over by anyone, it will be Trump’s fault.

“If one rioter gets run over by anyone, it will be Trump’s fault.”
Probably true but the whisper on the street is the positive outweighs the negative.
“Let my building burn, justice needs to be served”
Says the owner of Gandhi Mahal, a Minneapolis restaurant that was damaged and then repeated on social media by Ananda Mirilli for easy virtue points.
Mirilli hasn’t built anything herself but if she had perhaps she would more readily see the sheer stupidity of that position.

Who in God’s green earth can think this stuff up? The constant talk of white hate is really wearing thin. How many people got arrested?? Any video of wild white right wing mobs? This narrative goes beyond anything that might be normal cognitive process.

We get a whole summer of these riots and Biden gets a real liberal running mate. Trump will get re-elected without a problem. Be like ’68 over again.
If Biden does not choose an PoC as a runningmate the he will have a riot at the convention.
It’s interesting that Westown and Eastown were attacked last night but not Hillsdale.

Saw a clip from a presser held by the somewhat beefy Mayor-ette of Madistan. Cannot believe that she brushed off the property damage “…….buildings can be replaced…….” Apparently costs do not matter to her. Fair warning: it may be time to sell the ranch.

Yes, buildings CAN be replaced. But who is going to pay for that? And once lives ARE lost, as they have been elsewhere, what will the Mayor say then?
It is ludicrous to compare the relative morality of different CRIMES. What’s your point? That murder is worse than looting? Yeah, we kind of knew that. But if you listen to the dolts at Freedom Inc.,we should be more “understanding” of the economic carnage and property damage, due to the outrage of the murder. One justifies the other, right?. Umm, no.

Not likely that the Mayor-ette has had to pay a $1,000 or $10,000 deductible, is it?

President Trump labeling the Leftist Antifafaf (the Anti-First Amendment Fascists and Freaks), a “domestic terrorist organization” is a good start, … one small step toward clarity. But when #BlackLiesMatter use hate speech to incite violence, … “What do we want?, … dead cops, now.” and “Pigs in a blanket, … fry ’em like bacon.”, they’ve crossed the Rubicon of Reality and must also be called a “Domestic Terrorist Organization”.
So if you shoot an anti-police protestor, will the other anti-police protestors call the police?

The girl in the photo was part of the chaos that ensued. Her friend was the one who kicked in the windows of one (if not more) of the stores. She also is on video running out of a store after stealing a pair of shoes. Plenty of videos to prove it is them taking part. Do your research. Makayla Koeshall and Gabby Kokesh.

BS Blaska. Don’t insinuate there are no right wing groups involved. Antifa does not sport tats of right wing paramilitary groups like the 3 percenters.
