1) On U Street, a tense encounter between a resident in a neck brace and a bat-wielding protester who had been warning bystanders not to take video during a Black Lives Matter protest.

2) Josiah Pope, 23, who plays pro basketball overseas and had been injured in a motorcycle crash, wasn’t having any of it, and the two — both of whom are Black — argued.
“Get the f*** out of my face!” Pope, yelled, and mocked the protester him for threatening an injured person.

3) “My thing is, I’m a Black man from Washington, D.C.,” Pope said afterward. “I don’t mind the protesting. I was out there. .. [But] you don’t come down here burning down [stuff] and breaking [stuff] in the name of Black Lives Matter. All this is Black-built, Black-designed.”
