A Florida 'Karen' called the police on a solo Black Lives Matter protester standing completely alone

Just after 6 p.m. on Sunday, Shane Meyers was staging a peaceful, one-man protest in the affluent white suburb of Wellington, Florida when indie rapper AngieonMars spotted him on the corner of Forest Hill Blvd and U.S. route 441 with a sign that read "black lives f-cking matter." Taking out her phone and rolling down her window, Angie filmed a TikTok as she passed by in a car.

"All it takes is one," she called to a smiling Meyers. "Thank you, God bless."

It was a sweet moment, but it didn't last. As Meyers would go on to show in a TikTok of his own, he was approached shortly thereafter by a white woman who reported him to the police for "inciting riots."

They say they want peaceful protests, but what they mean is they want us to be quiet ##BLM
