As far as I can tell, this is NOT REAL. I caught a trumpster sharing this image accusing an organization called "ShutDownDC" of planning riots in every major city on 11/4. I did some reseasrch and found a real organization called ShutDownDC but they are not planning "riots" on 11/4.
This image was created to spread lies and convince right wingers that BLM and other organizations are planning violence.
we all know, if anyone is planning violence, or inciting it, who it is.

(26,044 posts)Anacortes is a small fishing/tourism town on the way to Whidby Island. At this time of year, it would be pretty much in hibernation.

(261 posts)I've been to Colton, WA many times. It is located in the Palouse wheat fields of Eastern Washington. The current population is 497 people, and the town is 397 acres. Before they create these fake lists, they should do a little research. The largest community near Colton is Pullman where Washington State University is located, which is my alma mater. The Proud Boys will find combines, tractors, silos, and cows.

(40,209 posts)Minot, North Dakota. Really? A town with 47,000 people that is over 90% white. OK.

(14,490 posts)This is similar to what they did a while back, declaring "buses of antifa are coming to destroy your town". And, they got away with it.
Someone needs to unplug Russia (and News Corp. while they're at it).
Sorry, I'm not a social media user but I hope everyone that is can get this removed.

if only because they missed the opportunity to claim they had riots planned from Phoenix, Arizona all the way to Tacoma...
