Shar Yaqataz Banyamyan and Ephraim Israel were two of the Black Israelites in the DC video

They were the group who were shouted a barrage of racist, homophobic, bigoted awfulness at the Native Americans, the high school students, and others.

The former apparently took the full video that lasts almost two hours long.

These grown adult men ought to be held accountable for their disgusting behavior.

Because these protesters are black they're immune from criticism?

Because they claim to be Jewish they're immune from criticism?

If you had bothered to a do a Google search you would have discovered that

WBBC is protesting in Georgia,California and Missouri. Nowhere near D.C.

The hoot is they are mainly protesting other Christian Churches,
