“Some within the crowd of 100s of demonstrators vandalized the police station. Breaking windows, spray painting, shooting fireworks and pointing lasers at officers and helicopters. We ask for organizers to keep the protest peaceful,” the Oakland Police tweeted with the hashtag “WallOfMoms” referring to the liberal women who have been forming human shields for the rioters.

Saturday night and into early Sunday morning saw massive violence in multiple cities, including multiple shootings.
In Austin, Texas, an Black Lives Matter member who was believed to be armed when he approached a vehicle at an intersection was shot and killed by the motorist.
In two other cities, “protesters” accidentally shot “fellow protesters.”
