This is really disturbing.

 

Apparently, Scott Michael Greene, a 43-year-old white Urbandale man, brought an american flag and a confederate flag to an Urbandale High School game a couple of weeks ago, and held it up during the anthem in front of a group of black fans, while some of the student football players kneeled during the anthem.

 

The flag was taken from him by the fans, he was struck by the fans (allegedly), and escorted off the property by two uniformed police officers. He recorded the event in a youtube video (in the link).

 

He is now a suspect in the murder of two police officers in Des Moines and Urbandale. They were ambushed while sitting in their patrol cars in two separate events early this morning.

 

This is sickening. A violent response to peaceful protest.

From the article:

 

“I was offended by the blacks sitting through our anthem. Thousands more whites fought and died for their freedom. However this is not about the Armed forces, they are cop haters.

 

 

... and he goes from being offended at all the "cop hater" protest to (allegedly) murdering cops himself.

 

makes sense.
