Vigilantes and outside agitators [View all]

How much have they been involved in the protests and the violence?

Are we to believe that the young man standing in the middle of the street in Kenosha, shooting his AR-15, was the first and only incident from outside agitators?

The right-wing propagandists would like America to believe it is the Black Lives Matter and peaceful protestors causing all the violence and destruction. I do not believe that is the case.

I believe there have been paid outside agitators from the beginning, especially in the city of Portland.

Or are we to believe that Donald Trump and his dirty tricksters would not resort to infiltrating the legitimate protests? That would be very naive, in my opinion.
