Police in Iowa have arrested a BLM organizer for the destruction of property.
Not that anyone’s reporting it.
….Except the locals.
From the Des Moines Register:
A prominent Des Moines Black Lives Matter organizer has been charged with a felony in connection with the vandalism of a police vehicle Saturday during a protest on the city’s south side.
Matthew Bruce, 24, is charged with first-degree criminal mischief, a class C felony. He turned himself in to Des Moines police at about 10 a.m. Wednesday and was released about two hours later from Polk County Jail on $1,000 bail.
Speaking through a bullhorn, he immediately addressed a group of about 25 activists and supporters who had gathered outside the jail, assuring them that he would continue to participate in the metro area’s protests.
“They think that spending a couple hours in that room, or having my hands behind my back … is going to make me think twice about coming out here and doing this,” Bruce said. “Or make us think twice about what y’all doing, because really I’m just a symbol for y’all’s collective power.”
