Louisiana cop sues Black Lives Matter after being wounded in deadly ambush
7/7/2017 Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson has been sued along with four other Black Lives Matter activists for allegedly inciting violence that led to an ambush of law enforcement in Baton Rouge, La. last year. Black Lives Matter activist DeRay Mckesson has been sued along with four other Black Lives Matter activists for allegedly inciting violence that led to an ambush of law enforcement in Baton Rouge, La. last year. (AP) An unnamed Louisiana officer has sued Black Lives Matter and several of the movement’s leaders Friday after last summer’s ambush of law enforcement officers in Baton Rouge. DeRay Mckesson, a member of the activist movement who has been involved in the Ferguson, Mo. and Baltimore, Md. protests, and four other Black Lives Matter leaders have been named as defendants in the suit. It was filed on behalf of one of the officers wounded in the July 17 attack by Gavin Long, a black military veteran, who killed three other officers in Baton Rouge before he was shot dead. The suit does not name the officer, but its description of the plaintiff matches that of East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff’s Deputy Nicholas Tullier, who has injured during the ambush. Long shot Tullier in the head, stomach and shoulder, leaving him with brain damage. In December 2016, the 42-year-old father of two emerged from a vegetative state and regained some movement in his body. The same attorneys who filed Friday’s suit previously sued Black Lives Matter and Mckesson on behalf of a Baton Rouge police officer who was injured last year at a July 9 protest over a deadly police shooting. full story: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/07/07/louisiana-cop-sues-black-lives-matter-after-being-wounded-in-deadly-ambush.html |

IF the individuals did something illegal, other than being in the same place as a protest where someone got hurt,,,
the suit makes sense,,, |

The headline is inaccurate, and ought to be corrected for clarity.
The lawsuit is NOT against Black Lives Matter. It is against specific people who claimed to be speaking for that cause/movement/whatever. It may seem a small point to some, but from a legal, as well as a practical point of view, it is tremendously important. Another case of lousy, careless reporting in the news, I'm afraid. And as often is the case, that bad reporting and thread labeling, will likely cause poor decisions to be made by all sorts of onlookers. |
