  Are you kidding? Just a couple examples; > On Monday June 1, 2020, four police officers were shot in St. Louis City. The far left rioters threw gas on police. The 7-11 downtown was looted and torched. Across town retired Police Captain David Dorn was shot dead while protecting a pawnshop. > June 2, 2020: 23 police officers were injured in the protests in Las Vegas, Nevada. One Metropolitan Police officer was shot in the back of the head while struggling with a rioter and is on life support. In Salt Lake City, Utah, 21 police officers were injured and a police car was flipped over and set on fire. Some of the injured officers suffered broken bones. One of the officers was hit in the back of the head with a baseball bat. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/06/431-police-officers-injured-killed-recent-far-left-black-lives-matter-protests-riots/ https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/06/431-police-officers...

    The gateway pundit is not a real source, it exists to launder false claims so larger right wing media can say "it is being reported that [misinformation]".

      It's not original reporting by the Gateway Pundit. They just happened to rank high on a quick Google search. Are you actually contesting those two examples? The police officer shot in the head in Las Vegas was international news, as was the 4 police officers shot in St. Louis riots the day before.
