It seems to me like it’s pretty obvious that wearing blackface is a big no no in the current climate – and probably all future climates in that respect too – so it really does strike me as preposterous why someone would turn up to a Black Lives Matter protest wearing it. It doesn’t surprise me that they ended up getting punched as well.

The guy turned up an Anti Trump protest outside the White House last night where people gathered to protest Trump finally accepting the Republican nomination. He was led away by police with the crowd chanting at him to go away, when a protester emerged from behind the police and punched him in the head. The protester is then chased away by police and wrestled to the ground.

You can check out the sequence below:

Wow that was some great camerawork from the guy filming. Should probably get a job in the movies or something.

Apparently people are unsure whether the guy showed up at the protest to mock them or whether he thought that wearing blackface was actually showing support to those gathered there. If it’s the second option then he probably deserved to get punched for being so uneducated and misguided in the first place. It’s just asking for trouble to be such an idiot about these things.
