‘Umbrella man’ who sparked Minneapolis riots identified as racist biker gang member

Well, well, well. It appears BLM and Antifa have nothing on inbred white supremacists when it comes to instigating violence and property destruction. At least liberals don't hide behind others protests like cowards. We really shouldn't be surprised, though, should we?

Police have identified the so-called “umbrella man” who set off a chain reaction that led to days of rioting and looting during Minneapolis protests against George Floyd’s killing.

The man was identified as a 32-year-old white supremacist associated with the biker gangs Aryan Cowboys and Hell’s Angels, but his name was not released because he has not yet been charged, reported the Star Tribune.

“This was the first fire that set off a string of fires and looting throughout the precinct and the rest of the city,” police arson investigator Erika Christensen wrote in a search warrant affidavit filed this week in court. “Until the actions of the person your affiant has been calling ‘Umbrella man,’ the protests had been relatively peaceful. The actions of this person created an atmosphere of hostility and tension. Your affiant believes that this individual’s sole aim was to incite violence.”

Christensen said the suspect was identified through an email tip received last week.

The masked man intended to incite further racial tension in the demonstrations that had remained peaceful to that point, but the resulting violence left two people dead and caused an estimated $500 million in property damage.

 

Right............Did he also make those black guys shoot those black kids there too. Unbelievable the depth the left will go to protect their wacko lefties

 

It’s been the case in other places, according to the DOJ

 

So LWers are that easy to rowl up? One guy out of how many thousands?

 

What do you guesstimate? 2 to 3% of national riots?

 

Umbrella Man isn't going to cut it. I'd change it to man with five gold earrings and covered in tattoos. Much more believable if you ask me.

 

As long as there is no name - this is as good as bull turds.

 

It wasnt me... It was the one armed man!!!

 

Blaming the Democrat Lockdown Riots on a dude with an umbrella!



Democrat comedy gold.

 

Since this is so popular....

 

And, the RW tried to blame ANITIFA? Wow.

You gotta wonder what this Riotous Perp's OTHER "Associations" were?

Obviously, nobody can say for sure.

BUT, a pretty Wise Latitude for "speculation"

Lol I love the spin.

Another one I head was that whites were putting on black costumes and then looting.

 

At this point, it is basically ACCEPTED FACT that the Trump Dirty Trick's Brigade sent some "Bikers for Trump" to incite the Riots in Minneapolis?

That is the version that has seemed to have gained steam.

PROVE Me Wrong.

 

Hate to break it to you but one man is not responsible for other peoples choices. Even if he was the first to start a fire, that does not excuse the hundreds of others that started their own fires. Started their own looting. And started their own killing sprees.

Self Responsibility. Its a thing.

 

It's your claim. You prove it. That picture proves nothing.

 

The original article - rate that...

So homeboy in the video is a white supremacist? Damn, he just had a person of color 1/2 his size ridicule him right off the Auto Zone property. Some supremacist, he must have been the clubhouse b*tch.


The only thing missing in this article is an insignia of the Pagans and Bandidos
The men in that incident were wearing leather vests marked with insignia of the Aryan Cowboys, Hell’s Angels and Outlaw Motorcycle Gang.

 

The suspect is a member of the Aryan Cowboys. Read the article...

 

You sure it doesn’t state “a member of the Aryan Cowgirls”? His actions of cowardice, once confronted, would get his a** whooped and banished by other club members.

 

Utterly pathetic...

The man was identified as a 32-year-old white supremacist associated with the biker gangs Aryan Cowboys and Hell’s Angels, but his name was not released because he has not yet been charged, reported the Star Tribune.

 

Prove some tin foil hat, crackpot conspiracy theory wrong? Even as CT goes, that's nuttier than a fruitcake.
PROVE Me Wrong.

 

Why the hell is this even significant?

 

A weak attempt to shift blame, so they may have found ONE guy, evidently he was the domino who triggered far leftist, nationwide to riot and loot. Talk about monkey see, monkey do!

 

Considering no one knows the name and therefore can't fact check....there is no significance to the OP's post.

 

Even if we knew the name, I'd still be asking what the relevance is.
