A man who addressed the “Justice for Jacob” rally in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Saturday declared: “If you kill one of ours, it’s time for us to kill one of yours.”
Several prominent leaders were present at the otherwise peaceful rally, including Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes (D).
Some militant activists, however, apparently participated in the rally: one carried a scimitar (see photo above and below, from Getty Images).
The Kenosha News described the event: “Several impassioned speakers — including Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes — took to the stage, and the crowd estimated between 1,000 and 2,000 joined in with that passion during a rally in support of Jacob Blake, the 29-year-old Kenosha man who was shot seven times last Sunday by Kenosha Police Officer Rusten Sheskey.”
