Many Americans understand that the riots aren’t righteous protests but are, instead, leftist activism aimed at destabilizing America and (the activists hope) destroying Trump’s chance at reelection. Still, people found shocking a video showing police in Buffalo pushing an old man to the ground where he lay with blood pouring from his ear. Don’t believe everything you see, though. The old man was a leftist activist looking for trouble and may have staged the whole thing.
If one views the video in a vacuum, it’s awful. A frail-looking old man standing alone against the Buffalo police is brutally pushed to the ground and left to lie there, bleeding:

When leftists control the narrative, though, assume that what you’re seeing is a lie. It took a little while for the truth to emerge, but we now know that Martin Gugino is a hard-left activist. In his Twitter feed, he says “F*** the police,” longs for Chicago, circa 1968, where the leftists violently rioted, supports Palestinian activism, and retweets theories that “undercover cops” are responsible for Minneapolis’s violent riots. Buffalo’s mayor, Byron Brown, said Gugino was an “agitator” whom the police had repeatedly asked to leave the area for trying to incite the crowd.
Footage has emerged showing Gugino hanging around with activists and boasting that he’s looking “for fun.” The shocked young man to whom he confided this said, “I think he’s looking to get punched in the face. That’s what it is.”

He was scanning the two officers in the front of the line. An officer behind those two saw what was happening and rushed forward (between the two front line officers) and pushed him away from them.
The officers would have had zero idea of what he was doing — was he brandishing a weapon? A stun gun? A hypodermic injector? An electronic device? His actions were definitely threatening to the officers and he completely deserved to be shoved away. The shove they gave him was rather light. An action like he made deserved a hard shove or even a whack with a stick.

don’t know what period the funding covered.
Read it again. The author is not saying he was frail looking. He is saying leftists and sympathizers saw him as frail looking all the better for them to play their police brutality narrative.
If he fell and hit his head hard enough for blood pour out of his ear, then why is there no blood under his head where he split his head open in the concrete?
Head wounds bleed like crazy. If the skin on the back of his skull hit the concrete with no protection, the it would have split wide open and bled. A LOT.
Also, his neck is arched.while he is laying on the ground with he feet crossed.
Old dude needs to be doxxed
Bingo. I knew it wasn’t from the sound of his head hitting the concrete. Thanks.
Just like the entire “protest” over Floyd, the Buffalo incident had leftist stink all over it from the very start. Nothing these leftist goons every do are unplanned. The riots were planned well in advance, all they were waiting for was an excuse.
One more time: The police are responsible for their actions in the exact same way they hold us responsible for our actions.
There is plenty of uncensored video on the net that shows the man’s head in a puddle of blood.
For those that havent seen it..look for the slow mo where it is clear he was scanning comm devices
dont remember if he was trying to clone or pick up the signal or what the technical term is
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
pluse it looks like he had the tv camera crew rolling from an elevated position to insure a good video of the scene
He has 9K subscribers now.
I didn’t care before, and I care even less now.
