Everyone needs to READ THE FUCKING ARTICLE and then cross reference it with memory of the event.

  1. This does not claim the Boogaloo Boys burned the building down.

  2. It only claims that a single Boogaloo fired a bunch of shots.

  3. It then says that protesters overran it hours later and burned it down.

In the hours that followed, the police building was overrun by demonstrators and severely damaged by fire.

This doesn’t contradict that this was a natural uprising of the people and radical act by the protesters. It just says “A boogaloo shot a bunch of shots at the building several hours before it was burned”.

The documents claim that federal agents obtained a video from the evening of May 28 showing an individual walking up to the door of the Third Precinct in Minneapolis and firing 13 rounds from “what appears to be an AK-47 style semiautomatic rifle.”

This also doesn’t contradict what we saw occur on the night. We have threads here on Chapo saying this happened. Remember? People were shooting into the air.

No shots were fired at the building. This is just some random Boogaloo who happened to be there at the time who fired bullets into the air during the whole thing, it encouraged police to shoot at the siegers and the police wasted all of their ammunition, when the police ran out of ammunition they evacuated the building and it allowed protesters to enter the building to burn it down.

We KNOW what happened that night. This contradicts nothing at all and it actually meshes with events we saw unfold perfectly fine. We all commented on the people shooting into the air that night at the time. Don’t let them spin one random that fired some bullets into the air into being the sole person responsible for what went down. That’s absolute bullshit.
