Has anyone heard allegations of old BLM protest violence videos being used?

I've heard this allegation a couple of times, but no credible source to substantiate this claim.

Tyia!

Twitter is the only place where well articulated sentences get misinterpreted.

You can say “I like pancakes” and somebody will say “So you hate waffles?”

No b****, that’s a whole new sentence wtf is you talkin bout

I'd say that applies here as well.

The DU poster was pointing out FOX or someone’s mistake or deliberate attempt to make things look worse than they are in LA. Hope improvements remembering correctly.

I think poster above is correct, it was a Jams Woods’ tweet they were calling out.
