Protesters’ false narrative

What started out as a protest for George Floyd has turned into an opportunity for organizations like Antifa and Black Lives Matter with a Marxist viewpoint who are using a false narrative about the black race and inciting people who are ignorant of history to advance their plans to bring America down.

Some people fall for this lie and decide to appease them by making our police look evil, let them tear down our American statues, burn buildings and terrorize the public. Lives matter and that includes all the aborted babies in this nation.

I am ashamed that here in Spokane we would allow letters to be painted on a building promoting the propaganda of the Black Lives Matter movement. We are in a battle here in our great country for our freedom.
