GOPDD: “F*** White People!” and “White People Suck are Just Two Examples Why This Journalist Decided No Longer To Cover #MilwaukeeUnrest

Aug 15, 2016 by Dylan

The Blaze “Upon arriving here, one of the first things we hear is the crowd getting angry and saying, ‘What are these white people doing here?’” Pool said.

While that statement alone wasn’t enough to cause Pool to pack up his things, other protesters screaming, “F*** white people!” and “White people suck!” did contribute to his decision. Pool cited two specific examples in which he said one reporter was threatened by a protester and “told to leave.” Another, he said, was “smacked upside the head” by someone who later encouraged others to “attack” the group of reporters.
