Oh look far right terrorists
Headline is propaganda: it tries to imply that the device was used to attack the mayor, but it was actually used to attack the fascists protesting the mayor.
To be fair, it seems the devices were thrown by counterprotesters who were trying to quash the 20-person anti-Muslim protest. It’s a shame, because the counterprotest had them outnumbered with about 125 people of their own. I’m afraid that an incident like this actually weakens the counterprotesters’ image and cause (although it’s NYC and I think the people there are generally really good about supporting their diverse neighbors).
I’ll be honest, weakening the point of a counter protest under a regime that doesn’t listen to protests and encourages it’s followets to hunt good people for sport is like saying you’re watering down my water with ice. The only way this counter protest would make any lasting changes to our society is if that bomb went off.
Oh look far right terrorists
From the article:
The two protest groups were initially divided by police, separated by barriers, before tensions escalated. Around 12:30 p.m., Tisch said an 18-year-old counterprotester “lit and threw an ignited device toward the protest area."
I’m curious how you came to that conclusion.
Same clowns who concluded cement slugs around construction sites were antifa weapons.
Yeah not far right but terrorist anyway.
