I hope journalists are looking into these videos of masked white "protestors" inexplicably destroying property + walking away w/o comment while protestors of color ask them why they're doing that and urge them to stop. You'd be forgiven for wondering if they're undercover cops.
Take this for example. The AutoZone incident? This white guy walks up, destroys windows while protestors try to stop him, and walks away. He refuses to answer questions and threatens to fight those who get too close:
Here's another video worth watching (h/t @starforcehq1): guy with camera sees protestor get out of a truck that seems like one cops would use. Asks him who he's with. He says CNN. So, camera guy goes to the truck. Check out the convo.
If you have any other videos like this or information on them that needs to be shared, either reply here with it, or email me: cmclymer@gmail.com
Here's another one, and it's worth mentioning that even if these aren't cops, it's fairly clear that so much of the destruction reported is being done by white "protestors" while Black protestors and other protestors of color are urging them to stop:
Another from @votegriffin: white men are about to destroy this building when they're questioned if they're even from the area. When they're challenged, they oddly walk away w/o verifying their identities.
Check this out from Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz:
