LINK The 2020 Kentucky Derby Has Protests, But No Fans In The Stands : NPR

"Right-wing counter-protesters have also come out for the event. Saturday afternoon, a long-line of demonstrators, many of whom carried guns, marched to downtown Louisville where they clashed with Black Lives Matter supporters in a shouting match in front of a memorial for Taylor.

The group was organized by Dylan Stevens, an online personality who calls himself "The Angry Viking" and criticizes the Black Lives Matter movement.

During a rally before the group marched on the city, Stevens warned that a "civil war" is coming.

Unlike Black Lives Matter demonstrations throughout the summer, Louisville police officers were not present during the right-wing armed demonstrators' march.

In a statement, Louisville Metro Police said that their resources were focused on Churchill Downs, where the Black Lives Matter demonstration is set to take place."

Interesting.

Seems all the makings for a civil war are present. If tRump wins there will be huge protests and a war could erupt. If he loses the same. Still, we would shirking our duty by ignoring all the injustices and corruption in the world. Unfortunately, war is just another means the Mother Nature has at her disposal to reduce the number 1 invasive species on the planet.

The police never seem to want to hold those white supremacist supporters accountable for their violent actions. I don’t trust the police anymore!

Seems a bit incongruent to me, too.
