Stevens Point, Wisconsin – We finally have video proof, Watch it here :
In light of what happened at the protest in Stevens Point, Wisconsin, where SUPPOSEDLY a bunch of white teenage kids (they at least appeared young) went out purposely to troll and harass the people that were at the peaceful protest. The protest was in favor of Black Lives Matter and people where out there in support of the cause. People were holding signs and chanting ‘Black Lives Matter’. In our previous post about the event, found here, we explain a bit about what we were told occurred, and we had a one on one interview with one of the boys from the back of one of the pick up trucks. Watch it and hear his side of the story, but it basically is that they were not there looking for trouble, and that when someone yelled “Black Lives Matter” at them, one of them replied “All Lives Matter” and that’s when all heck broke loose. In the comments on FB and on our website, you will see many people saying they were physically there, and that the ‘boys’ were looking for trouble, harassing peaceful protesters, and yelling racial slurs. Dozens and dozens of people back up the story that the boys were aggressive, racist and violent. Many of those same people said they either are in possession of, or saw online, video(s) of the occurrence. Dozens and dozens of people said either they had video, or saw it online. We, of course, want to get to the bottom of this; We want to know the truth and expose the LIARS, no matter who they are or ‘which side’ they’re on. We want to see the video that so many people said they have. For about 24 hours, not one single person posted or sent a video, but they still hammered away online with their hatred and rants.
So now, here comes what we thought would be the final nail in the coffin for those ‘boys’ in the back of the pick up truck. Some one sent us a video, and it’s supposed to prove the boys’ side of the story as a LIE. So, in all fairness, we were sent his video. The sender wrote : “Not my video but I was there and saw these kids instigated and harassed peaceful protesters driving by multiple times just to do so”.
I honestly do not see ANYTHING done by the two ‘kids’ in the back of the truck. I do not hear them nor do I see them utter one single word. Yes, one is holding a baseball bat (so what, their truck is getting surrounded by screaming maniacs! At that point with the little bit of video we have here, it looks like he’s holding it in self defense, the bat is actually pointed down and leaning on the bed of the truck, so he is NOT holding it menacingly).
I heard one person in the ‘peaceful’ crowd yell to them ‘Fuck You Up!‘ and they said it twice! … and no, there appeared to be no license plate on the back of the vehicle, and I do not know the laws there (some states require both front are rear tags) .. But look, watch and listen again! … Who is getting ‘closed in on’?? .. Who is doing the yelling? .. Who is doing the threatening?; it’s ALL the crowd! … BOOM, You’re BULLSHIT Narrative has been BLOWN. … That is until you can provide us with a video that proves otherwise. If you speak up, be prepared to FACT UP. … One last thing, to be honest, I’d love to see the full video before any final judgements are made. And trust me, there is a fuller video out there … COMMENT BELOW
Video of Incident at BLM Protest in Stevens Point, Wisconsin :
Lol what does this prove? That the crowd grew tired of these kids trying to instigate and cause problems? It’s been confirmed that these kids went down to the protest several times trying to get a reaction from the crowd. This video has been out there and doesn’t change the fact that those kids went down there to start trouble. Everyone is going on about the rights those kids had to be there and express their political beliefs (which is true, free country, freedom of speech, etc) but still, nobody can say what political beliefs that these kids have that… Read more »
I was there when some of the boys involved (not the ones pictured) made the plans to go to the protest, and they did indeed intend to go to get a rise out of those involved.
Imagine posting a 10 second video, with zero context, to prove your point. Some real “journalism” there. If they were innocent and not looking for a fight, why hold a baseball bat? Why circle the protest repeatedly without any attempt to engage peacefully?
To quote your orange savior:
PS – Free advice: If you want to portray these kids as the victims, don’t use a screen grab of dude holding a baseball bat…especially with the caption “Stevens Point, WI: We have video proof”
Next time I correct your shoddy journalism, I’ll leave my cashapp 🙂
And in case you decided to change that image, here it is folks:
I grew up with some of these kids. Being from this community, and having to suffer at the hands of these young men, damaging my property, being jumped by individuals involved in this incident, I have to disagree with what you have said. Ethan is a good kid, don’t get me wrong but that entire crowd deserves to be prosecuted for what they have done, and have been doing in the community. Attempting to jump individuals they do not like, causing bodily harm to them, following individuals while they try to go home, running people off of the road all… Read more »
