Despite having been the one to shoot and kill Ah Loo and wound Arturo, the yet unidentified No Kings “peacekeeper” was detained and released without charges after being questioned by police.

    The peacekeeper was hired by the protest organizers.

    You’re commenting on article that says they were volunteers…

    Just like every other article has.

    Where is this bullshit that they were paid employees coming from?

    And that’s not even getting into why a private organization paying someone would authorize them legally to murder bystanders?

      I stand corrected that they were paid. I missed that. In my research to verify that I also learned that it is unknown how the peacekeepers were trained and that they were asked not to carry weapons. That makes two stupid people carrying guns getting a third innocent person killed.

      Downvoted for the suggestion that anyone was legally authorized to murder bystanders. That is just a nonsensical statement intended to upset people.

        Congratulations on your “research” that could have been handled by reading literally any numbers of articles instead of just social media comments.

        Like, you could have just read this single article.

        I swear the kids are fucking cooked these days…
