Black Lives Matter “protesters” looted stores for a second night in Democrat-run Philadelphia after police shot Walter Wallace, an armed black man who charged at them with a knife. At the time, the police were reportedly responding to a 911 call about a man assaulting a woman.
After rioting, looting and torching police cars on Monday (Oct. 26), BLM mobs returned Tuesday (Oct. 27) to loot the same stores again and ransack others. Some chanted “Black Lives Matter!” and “Whose streets? Our streets!” as they pillaged West Philadelphia, a neighborhood that’s 76% black. A white journalist was assaulted during the looting in what he called a racially-motivated attack.
Elijah Schaffer, a reporter for the Blaze, described the harrowing incident where Black Lives Matter rioters beat him because they were upset that he was filming their crimes. They also called him a “white supremacist” simply for existing.
Schaffer said he believes the attack was racially-motivated because the BLM mob did not attack journalists of color (like Townhall’s Julio Rosas, who also filmed the riots).
Schaffer recounted: “I was jumped by BLM rioters while they were looting more than a dozen stores, including Wal-Matt, T-Mobile and 5-Below. Though in pain, I didn’t stop reporting because Americans need to see what the corporate media refuses to show.”
He continued: “Other journalists were filming, but I was the only white person in the store. I do believe I was targeted for being white as they accused me of being a white supremacist and did not attack people of color.”

Schaffer added: “They were specifically targeting and attacking white people tonight in Philadelphia. It was clear, if you were white, you weren’t welcome. That’s why Antifa had their own demonstrations in a separate part of the city.”

Elijah Schaffer, who had a bloody, swollen lip, remarked: “I’m going to go to the hospital to get stitches because it is just absolutely painful. But this is what’s happening in the current state over the killing of Walter Wallace.”

Schaffer summarized the domestic terrorism unleashed across the United States by Black Lives Matter Marxists and the Democrats who support them:
- “America has fallen to BLM.
- Terrorists are backed by elected politicians.
- Our cities are burning.
- The corporate media has been silent.”
America has fallen to BLM
Terrorists are backed by elected politicians
Our cities are burning
The corporate media has been silent
But the indp media has exposed the blatant coverup

Another white journalist — James Klug — said he was chased down by a BLM mob for filming the looting.

As BizPac Review reported, more than 30 police officers were injured in West Philadelphia when a violent mob rioted shortly after a knife-wielding black man was shot dead while charging at cops. Protesters chanted “Black Lives Matter!” and “Say his name: Walter Wallace!”
After ransacking local stores on Monday, BLM rioters returned for a second round of looting and robbery.
Police stood down, presumably because they didn’t want another incident that Black Lives Matter rioters will use to accuse them of being “white supremacists.”
For the record, Philadelphia’s Police Commissioner is a black woman named Danielle Outlaw. Before her, the previous Police Commissioner was a black man named Richard Ross Jr.
Townhall’s Julio Rosas filmed numerous shocking scenes of criminals ransacking and robbing local stores, including Walmart, Dollar Tree, Foot Locker, T-Mobile, Chick-fil-A and Rite Aid.

People who think the BLM riots are limited to big cities got a rude awakening last month, when left-wing mobs ransacked and torched businesses in the Wisconsin suburb of Kenosha.
During last night’s fracas, BLM “protesters” chanted: “EVERY CITY, EVERY TOWN, burn the precincts to the ground!”

The White House responded to the latest left-wing riots by vowing to investigate the incident and slamming the Democrats’ war on police:
“The riots in Philadelphia are the most recent consequence of the Liberal Democrats’ war against the police. Law enforcement is an incredibly dangerous occupation, and thousands of officers have given their lives in the line of duty. All lethal force incidents must be fully investigated.”
The WH statement underscored: “We can never allow mob rule. The Trump Administration stands proudly with law enforcement, and stands ready, upon request, to deploy any and all Federal resources to end these riots.”
