The bomb threat follows the killing of five police officers at a protest in Dallas last week. As Twitchy reported, demonstrators on Saturday attended a particularly contentious protest march led by a man who claimed the Dallas shootings were the product of “justified rage.” Another speaker said that police had been given a taste of their own medicine.

Video shot by reporters shows marchers chanting “No justice, no peace, take it to the streets and f*** the police.”
