I was there. As a Black man, I can only wonder what these flags really signify if they’re waving them AT A VIGIL of yet another Black man killed by police. Blue lives matter flag? Whose white-cop life was in danger when Kevin Peterson was killed? He was UNARMED. Trump flag? Smh https://t.co/b7lGWGCNOe

A vigil for Kevin Peterson Jr is being counter-protested. RWNJ have brought military vehicles, smoke grenades, bear mace, open carrying long guns. Police are siding with RWNJ. Check out @MrOlmos feed from the ground.
