Where’s Lebron ?

All Lives Matter.....even idiot Antifa members!

Point a gun at the wrong redneck..

These protests are still happening? Come on

Dumbest cause ever! All lives matter.

They just can’t get through to these racist ppl no matter how hard the BLM try. So when they come out with guns as the white ppl and cops do they are terrorists. Gladly most of them are old and will be dying soon anyways. I HATE RACISM.......I am sick of this

“Protest peacefully” they said. I bet the shooter has been spurting “all lives matter” as well.

Two places Austin and Louisville Protesters accidentally shot eachother. Leave your guns at home

If you point a gun at someone and got shot first it's called self defense. Never pull a gun if you can't pull the trigger, the man who shot him got himself to safety and called himself in to police. He was obviously not a criminal he was scared and defended himself.

Sad These protests are pretty down

Who’s dead And who did the shooting? 🤔

MOREEEEEE

It's time to label BLM as a terrorist organization!

Why didn't his wife jump to his rescue?

Blm is a racist group

Hmmmm what color was the guy with the gun

It’s was a peaceful shooting

Obviously who ever wrote the article didn't watch the video. The guy with the rifle shot first. 2 rifle shots were fired followed by 3 handgun shots

Hey Nancy u still think it’s peaceful

Don’t open someone’s car 🤷‍♂️

That wasn't a protest, that was a bunch of anarchist who don't have jobs!

Shocking

Terrible video was chosen TMZ......

Too bad🤣🤣🤣

Those Texans keep showing the country why they are not us

I heard from a reliable 'source' that he was a 'Boogaloo Boy' because only a boogaloo boy would carry a gun to a protest. So good riddance!

To bad only one died. Was hoping it was the all of them.

More Guns!! If you are carrying a gun and approach someone else with a gun the probability of you being shot is high but yeah definitely give everyone a gun.

Oh well, another Marxist gone, the world is a brighter place now.

why just one that's weak. fakenews TMZCNN

1 less confused piece of shit in world.

Ah more peaceful BLM protests

We would like to thank the other race of people that’s out here marching and protesting, but I saw more white people in the video than blacks. Yet it’s still the BLM ..😂

It's a good day to die

A Black Lives Matter Sign Stirs Debate in a Boston SuburbMany residents in predominantly white communities are divided over the message they see in Black Lives Matter signs—or whether bigotry is prevalent in their towns. Black lives matter doesn’t mean that any other life matters less than a black one. It just means that we need to pay attention to the Black lives because they are hurting more It doesn’t get more racist than Boston. Signs that say 'no hate in this home' or, 'this house supports...' implies there is hate in other homes. Some have suggested it is like the lamb's blood on the door.
