Crime Victims' Families Harassed By Antifa And Activists During Anti-Violence March
|
 [POLICETRIBUNE] Oakland Police Chief LeRonne Armstrong and a group of friends and family of victims of gun violence led a pro-police, anti-violence march on Saturday to call for a unified stand against violent mostly peaceful crime.Anti-police demonstrators and antifa showed up and clashed with members of the group, leading to heated arguments between them and the crime victims’ families and law enforcement supporters, video footage showed.
"Surreal moment in Oakland," Intercept news hound Lee Fang tweeted. "About 200 mostly black families rally with police to call for an end to the epidemic of gun violence. Mothers at the stage mourning recently murdered children. In the back, less than a dozen mostly white antifa protesters assembled to jeer them."
Chief Armstrong and many members of the 200-strong "Stand Up for a Safe Oakland" anti-violence group wore white shirts emblazoned with the hashtag "#SAFEOAKLAND" as they made their way from the amphitheater to Lakeshore Avenue, where one person was murdered and six more were maimed during a Juneteenth celebration last month, The Mercury News reported.
"We continue to see shootings every night in the city," Chief Armstrong told the crowd. "It is time we come together and we unite behind reducing gun violence in the city of Oakland. There are people in our community who don’t feel safe. There are seniors in our community who cannot come out at night. There are young, African-American men and Latino men that are at risk in our city."
