Tonight #BlackLivesMatter protesters marched about ten miles. In the Columbia Heights neighborhood, the group marched into Target and demanded that the store "stop calling the police on black people."

An employee tried to shut the entrance, but the group managed to hold it open.
"Until you stop calling the police, we'll continue to shut your business down," they chanted before marching away.
Here is uncut, HD video of the #BlackLivesMatter protesters entering Target and making their demands before continuing to march.

Here’s the front of the line right now to get into tonight’s #TrumpRallyTulsa
A two block radius around the stadium is cut off from civilian access, and another block around that is national guardsman and cement barricades.
“PATRIOT LIVES MATTER!” it says on this woman’s sign. The other side of her sign says “I might be gay but I’m not stupid.”

“Daddy Trump” it says on her T-shirt.

Big hit with the folks on line.

To those who follow activism news, you know today is the big day.

Here at Freedom Plaza, you can see the right-wing “#DemandFreeSpeech” Rally stage being set up.

Police have barricades setup up in every direction around it, and roads blocked two blocks each direction.
Here’s the scene at Pershing Park, where antifa is expected to gather at 11am to counter it with a competing rally.

Of course the question everyone has is whether the two sides will clash.

At the end of the clip you can see how close these locations are to eachother.
Police in the area are wearing more protective gear than normal. The vests are standard, but the extra shoulder protection isn’t.

Holy crap.

So I went to film communist @joey4revolution light a flag on fire in front of the White House.

What I didn’t expect was that the flag burst into flames and the Proud Boys showed up. Fighting ensued.

Things got violent (tweet 1 of a thread that’ll take some time.)
HD footage still importing, but in the meantime I’m posting the video from my phone.

After the initial violence and fire, the cops pushed everyone back. Communists stayed, and lit second flag.

Further conflict and two arrests including @joey4revolution.
Things turned conversational for a while, until a person on the left wing side head butted a right-winger, which turned the situation into a brawl when he responded by punching her in the face.

She was arrested.

Within minutes of @YouTube's announcement of a new purge it appears they caught my outlet, which documents activism and extremism, in the crossfire.

I was just notified my entire channel has been demonetized. I am a journalist whose work there is used in dozens of documentaries.
Youtube says "our team of policy specialists carefully looked over the videos you’ve uploaded to your channel News2Share. We found that a significant portion of your channel is not in line with our YouTube Partner Program policies."

As you'll see in the next tweet, that's wrong.
Youtube sent me only two specific videos that they've taken down.

1st is a video of @JasonRCharter and other #Antifa activists confronting a Holocaust denier. While it's true that the Holocaust denier says Holocaust-denier-stuff, this is raw vid documenting him being shut down.

I’m at Courthouse Square in #Dayton. It’s a little after 9am now.

An armed, masked Klan group expected to rally 1-3pm.

Their numbers will be low, but big community/coalition counter-demo expected.

I will be tweeting here and live-streaming today at Facebook.com/n2sreports
Cop holding riot helmet walks past city-posted sign that say “inclusion.”

Again to remind people: if I’m not tweeting, the place to check is the @N2Sreports Facebook, which is where I do my live-streams.

Be sure to follow/bookmark that page.

2nd and Ludlow, the North side of the blocked off area of Courthouse Square, is where the KKK people will be driving in with a police escort.

A cop tells me this spot won’t be accessible when that happens, so that moment may be hard to film.
