Another arrest of extremists attempting to start riots during the protest marches. It is important to distinguish between those who want to be heard, and those who want to exploit and destroy.
Federal agents arrested the men, Stephen Parshall and Andrew Lynam, along with a third man, William Loomis, before they allegedly planned to disrupt a Black Lives Matter protest in Las Vegas. They face federal charges of conspiracy and possession of unregistered firearms and multiple terrorism-related state charges. Prosecutors say the men had planned to use firebombs and explosives to create chaos and panic that would lead to riots. The men are being held in the Clark County jail on $1 million bond each.

According to a criminal complaint filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court in Nevada, all three, who are white and have U.S. military experience, “self-identified as part of the ‘boogaloo’ movement,” a disparate yet growing collection of extremists, including far-right militias, radical gun rights activists, white supremacists and neo-Nazis. As noted in the criminal complaint, “‘Boogaloo’ is a term used by extremists to signify a coming civil war and/or fall of civilization.”

Remember the other day when I mentioned some in our recently formed county militia wanting a "Boogaloo"?

Identifying which political side these agitators belong to isn’t getting people’s voices heard.

Good thing they were arrested.

Perhaps not, but they are interfering with the people's message.

Yeah and the finger pointing is interfering with the message too. I know my opinion isn’t popular. But just I don’t care for the media’s need point out political associations every times something happens and I think it sets a dangerous precedence that this behavior is limited to one side and it isn’t.

Arresting the offenders and working together to encourage both sides to quit politically exploiting Black issues because it interferes with our message.

Shame. People just want to riot while others want justice and equality.

There are some groups who's main goal is riot, chaos and the overthrow of order. They gravitate to anyplace they think they can use a large crowd for cover, or to confuse the message and be divisive. This is one of those groups.
