That's the danger you expose yourself to when embracing the politics of an anonymous mob.
Yeah, one example - that speedskating guy that was on the Uber commercial and interviewed on CNN who got arrested at the Trump rally, was also causing problems at BLM rallies. They were putting out notices to avoid him for being a troublemaker at their rallies. There are paid troublemakers, and there are also just troublemakers for the sake of it I'm sure.
