The supposedly peaceful BLM group decided to storm the Oklahoma Capitol Building. They claim they were fighting against all hate but showed up when legislators were working to pass anti-rioter bills… I guess this “peaceful” group was against legislation that was not rioter-friendly…
“Demonstrators chanting “Black Lives Matter” stormed the Oklahoma Capitol on Wednesday, forcing the state House of Representatives into lockdown, in order to protest several Republican-backed bills, including one that provides legal protections to motorists fleeing riots.
More than two dozen protesters filled the gallery on the fifth floor while the Oklahoma House in the chamber below was in session. The video showed demonstrators chanting, “Stand united against all hate,” and “We will use our voices to stand against corruption, to fight hate, to defend Black and Brown lives.” The disturbance interrupted the session for several minutes.
The demonstration was organized against what activists describe as anti-protest and anti-transgender bills advancing through the GOP-controlled state Senate and House. One bill increases penalties for protesters blocking traffic and protects drivers who unintentionally strike drivers with their cars. Another aims to protect law enforcement and their families from “doxxing.”
“You are traitors, insurrectionists, seditionists,” a woman shouted as protesters trickled out of the gallery.
Oklahoma Highway Patrol escorted protesters from the building, and a drug dog was brought into the chamber to make sure “nothing was left behind,” KOCO reporter Dillon Richards tweeted. ”

The legislators were working on bills that protected motorists who accidentally hit rioters, protected police from doxxing, and stopped rioters from blocking traffic. I guess BLM is worried that when they take over the streets, motorists might hit them. But if it is a peaceful assembly then BLM shouldn’t be taking over streets with traffic… and police should be protected from doxxing. It looks like BLM by protesting the Legislators revealed their true rioting colors.
