Summer BLM protests were ‘overwhelmingly’ peaceful: analysis | The Sacramento Bee

A report analyzing the flash point of Black Lives Matter protests across the U.S. this summer found more than 90 percent of the demonstrations against racial injustice were nonviolent.

An analysis by the nonprofit Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project identified more than 7,750 demonstrations across 2,400 cities between May 26 — the day after the death of George Floyd — and Aug. 22.

Fewer than 220 of those events were marked by violence or destructive activity and were “largely confined to specific blocks,” according to the report.

Watch: NYPD Escorts Pro-Trump Protesters Into Car Before It Plows Through a BLM March in Times Square

The vehicle’s license plate matches that of another car frequently shared on social media by Hakim Gibson, a pro-NYPD activist who currently runs a “law enforcement support page.” The Ford Taurus appears to be a former police car purchased from a police auction. According to Facebook posts, Gibson recently outfitted the car with a push bar and spotlight, joking online that other drivers had often mistaken him for a police officer.

The Gothamist also reports several reporters said they saw the driver of the car waving what appeared to be a handgun at the crowd, “causing further chaos” and provoking protesters to duck for cover at a nearby subway station.

“This person was pointing it at protesters after coming to a stop, and then drove away,” a 30-year-old street medic told the local news site.
