A moment of silence for fallen police officers was just held at the Democratic National Convention, but it was interrupted with shouts of “Black Lives Matter!”
Check it out, with the shouts audible at the end of the short clip:

Two worst moments at conventions: Yelling during a moment of silence at DNC, and someone yelling f—– at Peter Thiel at RNC.

I have no respect for whoever was yelling during the moment of silence. Not okay. 🙁 #dnc #DemsInPhilly #DemConvention

Screaming words of protest during a moment of silence for fallen police officers does not help your cause. #DNC #BlueLivesMatterToo
