Have read some unsubstantiated stories that it was involved in a manhunt connected to the rally.

Full on body armour, so it seems logical to assume that weaponry made it into the hands of these fuckstains.

We can WAIT until there's an investigation and a determination of cause.

sometimes a malfunctioning aircraft can fly with an experienced pilot at the controls, Sully comes to mind, and while no cover-up is suspected...yet, the racist white people in this racist riot had guns...that is all I need to know when it comes to the statement/question.....was it shot down? I don't care about the political affiliations of the 'leaders' of that state. The racists rioting had weapons. Period. And white entitlement and dreams of the 'south rising again' would be a reason to fire at the authorities...logic is what's needed here not some knee jerk reaction because someone doesn't want to admit that they had guns at this racist riot...and just like any good racist, were willing to use them against authorities, POC(marched on a black church, with what intent I ask)and whomever got in the entitled way. I know racists, they cannot be trusted to do the right thing...apologist....done with you.
