This violence and mistreatment of peaceful protesters is unacceptable. I don't know how conservatives still have their eyes closed and their ears plugged.

Woops, I read "protestor".

It's been fairly violent since it started.

Ok, thn here's what I'm going to say. It's necessary to stop violent protests. Peaceful is always the way to go. However, a concussion grenade is way too far. Despite what some people seem to think, those little bastards are built to minimize freindly casualties. It's a bomb. Of course it'll kill someone, the lack of fragmentation material only reduces the radius.
However, on that note, I did see an article I'll put in a spoiler that may or may not be accurate claiming it was more in line with an IED, just to have the thought out there. I'm not claiming it's right.

So apparently a large number of white people have shown up to take this in as a cultural phenomenon like burning man.

Well original reports said that a propane tank exploded so I'm not so sure. I can't find anything that says a concussion l grenade was used except for the OP

You'll have better luck on GunBroker, surplus police grenades end up on there from time to time.

I feel like if it was a propane tank there would have been more injuries. The IED thing is starting to seem more likely imo.

Well someone could have seen the IED per-explosion and thought that it was a propane tank. Though I think you are right

No, I won't.

It says they are setting fires, not setting things on fire.

From your own source:
Begay said there were "peaceful bonfires" around which protesters were gathering to keep warm. The coalition alleged that other fires were grass fires ignited by flares shot by law enforcement.
"They don't need to be meeting us with Mace and rubber bullets when we are nonviolent. There is no form of aggression or violence," she said.
Ask us anything!

Join MENINFORM today! Or that's not your style, issue a formal condemnation!

Our state, the League of the Six Free Peoples, is actually controlled by a cartel of neckbeards known as La Cosa Fedora. Members of the cartel are known as Honorable Gentlesirs. Citizens who are not members are known as normies.

Our armed forces are armies of the radicalized romanceless.

Do you fear us yet? If not, have some anti-neckbeard propaganda!
