    Back in 1967 (or 68') the Black Panthers decided to show up at my high school in Illinois to have a moratorium for King. They came unannounced along with what seemed like hundreds of community supporters. It was early, before 9am. Our school went into immediate lock down for close to 4 hours before letting us out. Armed state police, county police in riot gear escorted the kids to state buses (caged windows) and bused us home.

    We were off school for just over 1 month. When we returned, they had cameras in each hallway. There was only one entrance open going into or out of school that had state police with riot gear lining each side of the walkway.

    There is allot more but you get the idea. It saddens me that Brownsburg has allowed such a group to use their facilities. I am hearing more and more about the "wokeness" of this once quiet town. I am concerned.

    Interesting justification for the use of the word “cracker”. So, I do see AR 15’s… How did they get from the parking lot onto the protest route to Newby’s house?

    They were dropped off on the streets then picked up afterwards.. The video posted by the NBP on facebook showed the van used to drive them all around and it had out of state license plates on it also...

    They were in the public streets the entire time. What could Brownsburg have done to prevent their protest?

    If this town goes woke, I’m out of here like **** through a goose.
    I WILL EMPHASIZE "RUMOR".

    I have heard that "Christmas" might not occur next year in the Brownsburg school system; as directed by the school board. I am confident they would deny it just as they are denying critical theory and such but, let's watch and see.

    I have no clue. They are experts in pushing the envelope, psychological warfare; creating hostility and provoking. Their intent is evil. I do not like gangs.
    When we STOP giving them attention, they lose their ability to provoke. If we treated them as the clowns they are, there would be no reason to fear them. Most protests "push the envelope". I know as I work most of them. They are a VERY small group and we are giving them too much credit.

    I was asking the same question. Why Brownsburg? What do they have to do with this? Is this like an intimidation thing? We will expand into the suburbs and come and disrupt your communities?

    Is there something I'm missing here that ties this specifically to Brownsburg? :dunno:
    just saw in the video on page 8 that Brownsburg is where Newby lives. they paused their protest in front of his house

    And I will emphasize “if”… But the things you mention would be reliable indicators.

    What do you mean by Christmas not occurring? You mean no displays or anything, or are they just renaming their "Christmas Break" to "Winter Break" like all the Marion County schools have already done?

    Very well could be, I do not know. Regardless, it is being done, and for the wrong reason. Again, this is not firsthand info but the reason stated was they do not want to offend anyone.

    Imagine that....

    Wow. This wasn't really the nothing burger that we were told it would be, eh?

    I wish we had some folks on the scene of this, cameras in hand. I'd have liked to have seen the roads being closed by the protest.

    Seems odd that somehow the rioters knew where the acquitted "murderer" lived, yet that wasn't put out as public information?
    Was the man who defended himself at the Indy BLM riots warned?
    Was anybody warned in Brownsburg about road closures, etc?

    Oh I'm with you. It was always "Christmas Break" when you and I were in school.
