DENVER — One person was killed and two people are in custody on Saturday after gunfire erupted near an area where protests between opposing groups in downtown Denver were occurring, authorities said.


The shooting occurred in the courtyard of the Denver Art Museum, KCNC reported.


A man participating in a “Patriot Rally,” which also included self-described Black Lives Matter-antifa protesters, sprayed mace at another man, according to the Denver Post. The man sprayed by mace then shot the first protester with a handgun, the newspaper reported.



The victim, whose identity has not been released, was transported to an area hospital and was later pronounced dead, KCNC reported.


One of the two persons taken into custody was not involved in the shooting, according to the Denver Police Department.

According to a later tweet from police, “further investigation has determined the (other) suspect is a private security guard with no affiliation with antifa.”

Officials said more information will be released “as it becomes available.”

The Patriot Rally was scheduled for 2 p.m. local time, KUSA reported. The counter protest, called a “BLM-Antifa Soup Drive,” began 30 minutes earlier at Civic Center Park, which is located next to the state Capitol, the television station reported.

Police, who earlier fired what appeared to be pepper balls at the leftist protest group, said they were working on a homicide investigation, the Post reported.

Several Denver police officers in riot gear were on the scene when the shooting occurred, KMGH reported. Witnesses said the victim was shot at point-blank range, the television station reported.

The Denver Police Department did not provide specifics about the shooting but released a statement.

“The Denver Police Department respects the right to peacefully assemble,” the statement read. “Those who participate in protests, demonstrations, marches, or other gatherings, as protected by the First Amendment, are reminded to do so in a lawful manner. Individuals who choose to act outside of local, state and federal law, will be subject to citation or arrest.”

Media is in full damage control, the shooter was a "random security guard" who attacked in "self defence" after being maced and is not affiliated with Antifa because Antifa does not exist and is just an idea.

Also Twitter celebrating the kill.

The only problem I see is that they arrested the man who shot him.

EDIT: I think I may have been confused on who pepper sprayed who. I had assumed it was the BLM guy whom had pepper sprayed the shooter.

As I said in the riots thread, it is a good night to archive the tweets and other social media posts of the folks that think terroristic violence is a good thing. You know they're going to be deleting that shit once they realize it could bite them down the road.
 
Of all the times to be threadbanned from the riot thread, why now? 😭


Anyways, antifa is celebrating on twitter.

Saw the video that was filmed just tooff the left with this fellow arguing and instigatgin. The whole thing is reminiscent to me of the murder of malcom x in the way it went down. I doubt it was a targeted murder and rather was just a heated situation, but something to think about. These guys have learned about desling with the fact everyone and their mother has a phoone ut filming and streaming at these events, sI've ee them usinghuntingnstylem spotlights to blind cameras, umbrellas too. This will be interesting tro ead as it develops,

Would BLM-Shirts words constitute fighting words? That nigger stuff was intense. I couldn't understand a lot of what he was saying. I heard an expandable baton being opened and closed,

Interesting case. Another interesting bit, that picture the have has the guns slide back, so it's taken mid shot. Unless they're extraordinarily lucky and it was the photo of a century I would wager t hey have a video
 
Yet Kenosha Kyle is still considered mini-Hitler in these peoples eyes just for defending himself.

It's astounding how blatant their double standards are.
 
If the guy maced unprovoked he deserved to be shot but since he maced an antifag i doubt it was unprovoked and syg doesnt apply if you start shit
