Hello and welcome to the details of Trump posts video of couple brandishing guns towards protesters and now with the details
WASHINGTON, June 30 — President Donald Trump, again accentuating racial tensions in America, yesterday posted a video showing a Missouri couple brandishing guns towards protesters who were calling for police reforms.
Without comment, Trump retweeted an ABC News video showing a white couple responding to Black and white protesters marching past their St Louis mansion. In the video and others on social media, some protesters can be seen pausing to film or photograph the couple, while others can be heard to shout, “Keep moving!” and “Let's go!”
Mark McCloskey, 63, who lives in the mansion with his wife, Patricia McCloskey, said they feared for their lives and that protesters damaged a wrought-iron gate at an entrance to the wealthy neighborhood. Both are personal-injury lawyers.
“This is all private property,” he said in an interview with KMOV4 local news. “There are no public sidewalks or public streets. I was terrified that we'd be murdered within seconds, our house would be burned down, our pets would be killed. We were all alone facing an angry mob.”
Kimberly Gardner, the city's chief prosecutor, said she was alarmed by the videos and that her office was investigating.
“We must protect the right to peacefully protest, and any attempt to chill it through intimidation or threat of deadly force will not be tolerated,” she said in a statement.
The protesters had been heading to the home of St Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson to demand her resignation after she read out the names and addresses of people calling for police reform in a Facebook Live event last week. Krewson apologized and took the video down.
On Sunday, Trump drew swift condemnation for retweeting video of a Florida supporter shouting “white power,” a phrase used by white supremacist groups, and later deleted it. The White House said Trump had not heard the slogan.
Trump also blasted Princeton University's weekend announcement that it was removing former US President Woodrow Wilson's name from its schools over his racist remarks and policies.
“Incredible stupidity!” Trump tweeted.
Opinion polls show the Republican Trump trailing his likely Democratic rival in the November 3 election, former Vice President Joe Biden, and an increasing number of Americans sympathising with protesters and support policing reforms.
The Princeton decision is part of a sweeping reassessment of historical icons and monikers amid growing calls for racial justice following the killing of Black Americans, including George Floyd, whose death under the knee of a white police officer roused world protests.
Critics have highlighted Trump's hostile response to protests against racial injustice and actions like Princeton's, even as Mississippi on Sunday voted to remove the Confederate flag symbol from its state flag, Walmart stopped selling the Confederate flag, and Nascar banned the Civil War-era symbol. — Reuters
