White supremacists picked fight with an interracial couple after Tennessee rally, police say
Source: MSN/Washington Post
Hours after a White Lives Matter rally unfolded Saturday in Shelbyville, Tenn. resulting in lots of counterprotesters, but no violence a fight broke out between a smaller group of white supremacists and an interracial couple at a restaurant in Brentwood, about 50 miles to the north.
The couple, a 30-year-old white woman and a 37-year-old black man, were dining inside the Corner Pub when a group of about 20 to 30 white men and women came in and sat at a table behind them, according to a statement by the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department.
The 30-year-old woman later told police that one of the group members asked her to guess and that she responded white lives matter, police said.
Another said thats right and told her to join their table and leave her boyfriend, police said in a statement. The argument inside apparently escalated even after the female victim had gone outside to de-escalate the situation.

And, I hope there was video for the police, should they care enough to make any arrests.

(5,504 posts)The black boyfriend and his girlfriend are the heroes in this story, standing up to a group of monsters that outnumbered them 15:1.
Of course, they try to blame the black guy too, hoping that the police are racist enough to believe them. I wish hell was real so that they could go there.
