A sad moment took place in Oregon state yet again as the Black Lives Matter demonstrator got aggressive.
They started chasing a truck driver, who is a white man, who hit a tree as he was avoiding confrontation.
According to the protesters, the man was following them because they were protesting for Black people’s rights. They believe he was a white supremacist who was trying to drive his truck on them.

What does earlier footage prove about the truck driver?
Another video circulating on social media speaks a lot about the innocence of the truck driver. The video shows a few people beating the same man and kicking his truck on 7-eleven while others are saying ‘he did not do anything.’
This is when the truck driver took a high speed and ended up hitting a tree on the street. As per Andy Ngo, a video journalist, the driver was only helping a woman who the thugs were beating and robbing. He tweeted a couple of videos as wrote ‘the man later was beaten up himself and kicked unconscious.’
Another journalist who luckily was present at the crime scene also spoke what he witnessed. He believes the man was protecting his female partner from the thugs of BLM protesters who were to rob and beat her. This is why they became aggressive and he increased the speed only to protect himself and his partner.
But unfortunately for him, he ended up surrounded by the same people who then took disgusting revenge from him. This tragedy took place at Portland, Oregon which has been a hub for the recent wave of BLM protests in the wake of George Floyd’s murder.
