Update: Police now believe a security guard — allegedly — killed the Trump supporter, not an Antifa-BLM agitator. Regardless, you don’t kill someone over Mace. Police now say the security guard was private and had no affiliation with Antifa or BLM. This is a developing story
There were two rallies in Denver today, a Patriot Rally in the Civic Center, organized by John Tiegen of El Paso, and a BLM-Antifa Soup Drive. The soup drive was sarcastically named and referenced the fact that they were going to throw soup cans at police officers. Within an hour, one man was dead, and two others were under arrest.
It appears a communist Antifa shot or a private security guard killed a Trump supporter. The killer had a laser pointed at the Trump supporter before he killed him at point black range.

The last thing the victim saw might have been a laser pointed at him with no time to move.
Zoom. Enhance. The Denver shooter’s gun had a laser sight. You can see the reflection in the victim’s sunglasses. pic.twitter.com/SpybYv05g9

BACKGROUND
The Patriots say the BLM, Antifa, and related Marxist associations are assaulting everything we love and cherish about this country.” They held a banner that said, ‘Socialism Sucks.’
It’s hard to argue with that.
On the other side, Eric Goodman was running a table with literature to get people to join the Colorado Socialist Revolution. “There’s amazing enthusiasm for socialism right now, especially among the younger people,” he said.
No doubt.
They claim, “We are fighting against racism, nationalism, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, the police, immigration-enforcement, imperialism, and all oppression and exploitation.”
Oddly, that’s what they are, and they do.
As the rallies got started, the two groups were shouting at each other, and police were standing by. One protester burned a thin-blue-line flag in front of the officers.
The right-leaning protesters were inside the amphitheater area while the left-leaning protestors were outside. Police were not letting anyone else into the amphitheater area, but by 3:30, the barrier appeared to be coming down.
An hour in, a man participating in the “Patriot Rally” sprayed mace at another man during an argument, and someone shot him with a handgun a close range. Ambulances responded to the scene. Police said Saturday afternoon that they were working on a homicide investigation.
One man is dead, and two are in custody.
We are at war, but only one side knows it, and only one side is fighting.
WARNING, GRAPHIC
The Antifa will get away with it if he did it — he’s just an ‘idea.’ The eyewitness said he saw two men arguing and pushing. The purported witness claims that he thought the police would step in but made no movement to break up the argument.
“One person was telling the other, ‘Go ahead, mace me, bro. Mace me! What are you gonna do? Why don’t you mace me?!’ More pushing. A burst of orange mace erupts and the BANG one single shot,” he wrote. “The larger man fell backward, and the shooter held his hands and gun (still in hands) up in the air. Police rush in, arrest the shooter, and surround the body on the ground. They then clear everyone out, and that’s when I left.”
This is very sobering. It’s dreadful.
