Dear Journalists, please stop calling Black Bloc Anarchists “protestors” and lumping them in with real Democrats protesting the travesty that is Trump’s Inauguration. Black Bloc Anarchists are easy to spot. They show up at non-violent protests wearing black, with black handkerchiefs over their faces, black hats or hoods on their heads and possibly hammers/crowbars in their hands and backpacks filled with flash bangs. Their only intent is to disrupt and cause violence and property destruction. They have no real message. They like to spray paint “A” on things. THEY RUN AWAY AFTER CAUSING TROUBLE.
Legit Democrats protesting are also easy to spot. They are wearing a variety of colorful clothing, nothing over their faces and maybe a sign or bottle of water in their hands. Their intent is to protest the travesty of Trump’s Inauguration and make their voices heard. THEY STAY PUT AND PASSIVELY ALLOW THEMSELVES TO BE ARRESTED.
I am including several more photos from yesterday showing Black Bloc results so we can all see their stupidity. And let it be known, some of them were arrested. I’d like to know if they were just the random groupings of young, violent idiots or if they were paid agitators.
There’s a long history of paid agitators and police plants trying to foment violence to discredit legit protestors.
Journalists need to get it into their heads that just as there is Fake News there are Fake Protestors and outside agitators. Start making the distinction.
Trying to find some decent photos from DC yesterday to show some garden variety legit Democratic protestors on google search and couldn’t find any. Only Black Bloc. Why?
