Black Lives Matter, Antifa March Through DC, Chant ‘Burn It Down’

Black Lives Matter protesters and Antifa agitators marched through Washington on Feb. 6 and threatened people as they ate dinner, according to video footage and reports.

“Burn it down,” the demonstrators chanted.

“We are here tonight because black lives matter,” members of the far-left group also said. “Despite black lives mattering, black people are still dying at the hands of the police paid for by our tax dollars.”

Other video footage uploaded by independent journalists on the scene showed Antifa types fighting with police officers, who were trying to keep them away from restaurants. Some, clad in all black, could be seen holding the red-and-black Antifa flag.

At one point, police in Washington were seen forming lines around outdoor diners to separate them from the demonstrators and agitators.

Anti-police protests and riots have been a constant presence in Washington following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis last May.

 

About 26,000 National Guard members were sent to Washington to provide enhanced security for the presidential inauguration on Jan. 20. Officials later said that about 5,000 Guard members would stay in the city until mid-March.

Police officials didn’t immediately respond to The Epoch Times about whether any arrests made.

Andy Ngo, an independent journalist who has chronicled Antifa’s actions across the United States, told The Epoch Times last week that the notion that Antifa is merely an ideology is false. Ngo said the group is “more than an idea. It’s also a movement.”

It has networks, and some of them are organized into formal organizations, he said.

Some have noted that the continuation of Black Lives Matter protests and Antifa riots is a signal that there’s a growing schism within the American left. Seattle, Portland, Oregon, and other cities have occasionally seen violent demonstrations since the Jan. 20 inauguration of President Joe Biden.

Also in January, demonstrators swarmed and attacked an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility—a frequent target in Portland during the Trump administration—which triggered a federal response.

According to the Cook Count Medical Examiners office 875 people in Chicago died from gun violence last year. Of those 683 were black. Black lives absolutely do matter...but the real carnage is coming from black on black violence...not from the rare case of a cop wrongly using deadly force. I fully support weeding out bad cops...but that is not where the bloodshed is coming from.

They haven't won yet, and certainly shouldn't with their actions.  They do not promote peace.

Yep, 1's who did stupid stuff need to be held accountable, same with all the chaos and destruction from BLM

But the democrats are blaming trump for it, yet again.  Now they’re gonna waste more taxpayers money to try him knowing they don’t have the votes, and that the whole premise of the impeachment is a sham

Your quoting the wrong person, I never said that

I was generalizing a group of people.  Not really directed at you as much as the group that says what you say but think that the statement doesn’t apply to all people or groups

What's the right narrative though, Jett? Apparently their website has some questionable stuff on it that some consider Marxist.

There are ppl who believe this system is lopsided and should be equal amongst all of us... so amongst the crowd there are individuals who are pushing for a change that's long overdue and then you have clowns who want to show their ### and hijack the group... JMO

We are all equal.....this group wants EQUITY.....which means we all get the same thing no matter what....EQUALITY simply means we all have the same opportunity....it does NOT mean we all share the same outcome......EQUITY is Marxism....and that is What BLM wants......
