No proof that Black Lives Matter killed 36 people, injured 1,000 police officers
IF YOUR TIME IS SHORT
We found no evidence that the toll from protests against police brutality is as high as the numbers in the post. The U.S. Justice Department told us it does not have numbers on officer injuries or property damage resulting from civil disturbances.
Black Lives Matter protests attract not only BLM members but supporters and opponents, making it difficult to assign blame to BLM for particular incidents.
Etc.
But the Blaze said, but the unz review said... must be true then... hang on!
