Black Lives Matter activists crash wedding of officer involved in Stephon Clark shooting

Source: The Hill

A group of Black Lives Matter activists crashed the wedding of a Sacramento police officer who was involved in the fatal shooting of a 22-year-old black man earlier this year, according to video obtained by CBS 13 Sacramento.

The news network reports that a small group of protestors received word about the wedding and made sure to attend hours before the ceremony. In the video, the officer was in a room with fellow groomsmen when protestors barged in.

“I just wonder if you started planning your wedding before you killed Stephon Clark or after? How have you been sleeping since March 18?” a protester said in the video.

“I think they need to be approached in spaces where they’re a little more vulnerable,” Sacramento BLM founder Tanya Faison told the CBS local affiliate after the confrontation.

continuing to make their sphincters tighten up with fear, is a good thing. In my strategy book. To hell with these murderers.
