We’ve gotta say first off that we hate calling any part of Washington, D.C., “Black Lives Matter Plaza,” but that’s what happens when you let the streets be taken over.
In any case, The Daily Caller’s Jorge Ventura was on the scene in D.C. on Tuesday and recorded as a Black Lives Matter protester punched a Trump supporter in the face:

Other than that, the protest was “mostly peaceful.”
The protesters’ gang tried to protect him from arrest, but when that didn’t work, they asked, “What he being detained for?”

“What he bein detained for? What he bein detained for?”
Uh… you filmed it you dimwit.
You literally saw him punch a guy in the face in front of a group of police officers. This is why no one believes you when you say this is “peaceful”— B. Robert ??♂️ (@brobertphd) July 7, 2020
God, the ignorance is palpable on that one.

His friends are escalating the situation by trying to stop the police from arresting him. They were making that situation more dangerous

It's a reflex They learned in elementary school.
Side note, elementary school was the last year they went to school.

Does anybody really think this group of men care one iota about their fellow blacks? These are thugs and I’m glad this guy was arrested.

It is also time to find a way to deal with these phone-wielding cowards and agitators. Deny the oxygen of publicity.

Problem is the perp will only get a slap on the wrist.

He'll be out on less time than it took to film the assault but at least he was handcuffed.
— TheSpectre (@LateToTheParty7) July 7, 2020
He'll be out before the end of the officer's shift.
— ??Truckin Texan?☠️ (@punmasterflash) July 7, 2020
He’ll probably be out in an hour. Huge part of the problem.
— peetmoss (@peetmoss2) July 7, 2020
With no bail, obviously. Oh wait, that’s New York, where he’d probably leave with Yankees’ tickets and a cell phone.
Kudos for the police for the immediate arrest. There should have been more officers on hand to arrest the four accomplices who tried to obstruct justice when they aided the suspect in resisting police.

Bald dude knew exactly what he was doing. Brought him over to the cops, and then just walked away when dude hit him, ?.
All those guys thought they were going to stop him from getting arrested, like they were tough, ?.

We need to tear down some more statues quickly before this gets any more violent.
Looks peaceful. And look at all the fencing. Geez, I remember when I could walk up and into St. John's and when I could cut across Lafayette Square.

How about we stop calling it BLM Plaza
