BLACK LIVES MATTER

DOWNED & DROWNED! Black Lives Matter Protesters TEAR DOWN Statue Of Bristol Slave Trader 

BLACK Lives Matter protesters took aim at the right kind of statue today, toppling and drowning a figure of a slave trader in the UK city of Bristol. 

The statue of racist slave trader Edward Colston who was a 17th Century slave trader was toppled by local protesters and chucked in a river. 

The statue on Colston Avenue was erected in honour of the Bristol merchant whose ships sent 80,000 men, women and children from Africa to the Americas between 1672 and 1689 reported the BBC. 

Yesterday, Black Lives Matter protesters defaced and attacked the statue of Abraham Lincoln – the former U.S. President who ended slavery in America and took a bullet for it.

President Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery in America in 1863 in his Emancipation Proclamation that freed black slaves during the American Civil War. 

Lincoln was assassinated at a theatre that many historians believe was a direct response to restore the unrecognised ‘confederate’ republic in the south. 

The protesters also de-faced a British icon in Westminster – the statue of Winston Churchill who helped defeat fascism and Nazi Germany along with America. 

On Saturday protesters attacked Met Police officers and even threw a Bike at a Police horses in a shocking display of animal abuse. 

Police took a tougher line on the protesters following chaos earlier in the week in which BLM protesters attacked Downing Street and punched a Police officer.
