Police Violence + Armed Vigilante = Death in Kenosha
Jacob Blake, another victim of violence by police, is paralyzed after being shot in the back several times by an officer. To make matters worse in Kenosha, three people were shot and two died at a Black Lives Matter protest. The assailant was a 17-year old white male, who walked away from the scene of the crime even after witnesses informed Kenosha police that he had just shot innocent people. He was eventually arrested and charged with murder the following day. Sadly, some are saying shooting protestors is a justified act. But Anthony Huber shouldn’t have had to risk his life to peacefully protest. Armed vigilantes do NOT make us safer.
