    Gun battle on the streets of Kenosha: Two dead and one wounded

    Gun battle on the streets of Kenosha: Two dead and one wounded as dramatic videos capture clashes between 'self-styled militias guarding gas stations' and BLM protesters after looting

    Three people have been shot, two fatally, after protesters defied Kenosha's dawn-to-dusk curfew yesterday

    Footage from the scene shows a man laying on the floor with a gunshot wound with what looks like his head. Another image shows a man falling down to the floor as he is shot in the chest - and one with a wounded arm

    About 300 protesters defied Kenosha's dawn-to-dusk curfew on Tuesday as they gathered outside the county courthouse and clashed with police during a third night of protests over the shooting of Jacob Blake

    Demonstrators, some of whom wore helmets and protective gear, were seen hurling bottles at cops behind a black fence that was put in place earlier to protect the building from riots

    Several military-style armored patrol vehicles were seen maneuvering around the county courthouse, firing tear gas, rubber bullets, and flash-bang rounds at the crowd

    About three hours after declaring the protest an unlawful assembly, authorities managed to push Tuesday night's crowd out of the downtown park, with demonstrators scattering down streets.

    The disturbances came hours after Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers declared a state of emergency and vowed to deploy additional National Guard troops

    The family of Jacob Blake also publicly pleaded for calm earlier during a press conference outside the court

    Blake, 29, was left paralyzed after being struck from behind at point-blank range in a hail of bullets fired by cops on Sunday

    I predicted that there was gonna be shootings between rioter/looters before long. People have had enough of this crap and are gonna stand up and defend their property. Of course the only legal gun toters are the ones defending property. The rioters/looters probably have stolen firearms.

      "Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers declared a state of emergency and vowed to deploy additional National Guard troops"

          Yes, he was knocked to the ground. As the rioters started to attack him another shooter opened up on them and he was able to get away. It looked like they were protecting a gas station, but who knows.

          This white guy is gonna be in big trouble after they catch him. Of course this will give the rioters another reason to go wild again.
