Cars burned. Buildings attacked. Federal officers threatened. And to one network, it’s a “bunch of people having fun…”
Networks were ridiculed during earlier riots in Wisconsin for having a reporter, standing in front of blocks of burning buildings, describe how the violence was “mostly peaceful.”
That wild claim already has been matched in the Los Angeles riots, triggered by a violent reaction to federal officers performing their duties in arresting illegal alien criminals, some accused of murder and hurting children.
That network claim was that the events were a “bunch of people having fun…”
A report at the Gateway Pundit noted the ABC claim was as “record absurdity.”
“It’s the new ‘fiery but mostly peaceful protests,’” the report said. That would be a local ABC 7 anchor describing the anti-ICE insurrection burning down the city and attacking federal officers as “just a bunch of people having fun, watching cars burn.”
The report said the anchor, “reported to be ABC7 Eyewitness News co-anchor Marc Brown,” charged that it was the Trump administration that could “a massive confrontation and altercation between officers and demonstrators” by bringing in law enforcement.
He pointed out, “It could turn very volatile if you move law enforcement in there.”
The report cited history: “It can be recalled that CNN once described the riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as ‘fiery but mostly peaceful protests’ in the days after sex offender and police attacker Jacob Blake was shot by police in what was later found to be a justified shooting.”
