Four arrested in Charlotte on third night of protests ahead of RNC
2020-08-25
[NYPOST] Protesters erupted into the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina, on Sunday for a third straight night of demonstrations that prompted police to use pepper spray and arrest four people ahead of the Republican National Convention, which kicks off Monday, according to a report.More than 100 people split up into groups of about 15 after gathering in Marshall Park late Sunday, the Charlotte Observer reported.

They then marched uptown and chanted "No RNC in CLT!" and "F— Donald Trump
...the Nailer of NAFTA...
!" as they gathered near the Westin Charlotte Hotel, where delegates are staying, according to the news outlet.

Trump and Vice President Mike Pence are expected to be in Charlotte for the RNC’s first night Monday when the delegates assemble in the Charlotte Convention Center to officially nominate them for the 2020 GOP ticket.

The protesters later marched back to South Tryon Street until they reached cops on bikes and chanted "Black Lives Matter!"

When one protester yelled that the officers were holding pepper spray, the group turned around, as some chanted "F— the police!"

#1  I keep hearing how intelligent all the Biden supporter are and how stupid all the Trump supporters are. This story doesn't exactly support the hypothesis.
