“The protests started as a ‘noise demonstration and dance party’ and seemed to intensify as the night continued. Videos emerged on social media that appeared to show city police clashing with protesters throughout city streets,” Fox News reported. “Protesters yelled and threw water bottles at police at the historic St. John’s Church, which is near Black Lives Matter Plaza. There were some arrests.”
One video showed at the :19 second mark a man yelling at an elderly couple while throwing his hands in front of their faces and flipping them off.
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) responded to incident by writing: “This is how Washington DC’s liberal mayor allows Republican visitors to the White House to be treated *now.* Imagine how much damage a ‘governor’ of DC could cause if she didn’t like the party in office.”Good of BLM mob to provide campaign material for Trump immediately after convention. pic.twitter.com/Zh3sFgCFZX
