A prominent Black Lives Matter activist named Quintez Brown was arrested and charged with attempted murder after a mayoral candidate named Craig Greenberg escaped an assassination attempt on his life. Greenberg, a Jewish mayoral candidate in Louisville, Kentucky, was working in his campaign headquarters when Brown entered and opened fire with a Glock handgun. Greenberg escaped with a grazed bullet and nobody else in the office was hurt.
After the shooting, in a lengthy editorial, The Las Vegas Sun newspaper amazingly blamed the “terrifying incident” on conservatives and Republicans. In the 800-word screed, the newspaper pivoted to a New York Times story that pinned thousands of documented threats against lawmakers on red meat-throwing Republican lawmakers, angry conservative voters, and on Donald Trump, of course.
There is just one huge problem with the Sun’s editorial: the newspaper willingly ignored the fact the shooting suspect enjoyed fawning media coverage as a left-wing activist who marched for Black Lives Matter and supported “gun reform,” too.
“Maybe we won’t get gun reform the next day but non-violent direct action takes time,” Brown, seated for a live interview, told MSNBC at a 2018 anti-gun march in Washington, D.C.
Dan Gainor of Media Research Center says what the Sun did is “amazingly despicable” in journalism.
“I mean, literally, some human being should lose their job over this,” he says. “And no human being will.”
That is because, Gainor says, the approved left-wing narrative is right-wingers are dangerous to society, which shields the Sun from scrutiny among fellow left-wing journalists.
In the year 2022, however, the aging daily newspapers that have enjoyed more freedom to twist facts are competing in a new arena, which is why social media jumped on the Sun like Greenberg’s staff jumped on the man trying to kill them. It appears Tom Bevan, president of the popular RealClearPolitics website, was among the first to notice the Sun’s editorial.
“Holy [expletive], Las Vegan Sun,” Bevan wrote on Twitter. “This editorial was written after the alleged shooter, Quintez Brown, was identified as a left-wing BLM activist.”
The editorial, which goes on for 800 words, even states Brown’s political affiliation was not known but then continues for another 700 words blaming Republicans for the heated threats made against lawmakers.
In the eyes of the Left, however, all threats at not equal. Back in 2019, The Washington Examiner reported how the Left was gleefully mocking Sen. Rand Paul, and praising his attacker, when it was learned the senator was undergoing surgery to remove a part of his lung because of the assault by a left-wing neighbor.
It has also not gone unnoticed that Brown once appeared on the MSBNC with show host Joy Reid. She famously told viewers about the “racist” views of Sen. Steve Scalise at the very moment he was recovering in a hospital bed from an assassin’s bullet in his stomach.
Later this week, after Brown’s arrest, social media was also paying attention when a BLM group, Black Lives Matter Louisville, brought a $100,000 check to the Hall of Justice to post Brown’s bail from an attempted murder charge.
“How many people have been contacted by a reporter to find out why they donated to Quintez Brown’s bail fund?” asked writer Jim Treacher, referring to the GiveSendGo hack of “Freedom Convoy” supporters.
Drew Hernandez, a journalist and podcaster, summed up the view of many in a Tweet:
“A BLM black nationalist shot at a Jew and got bailed out with ease by BLM and the far left wants me to believe white supremacy is the problem in this country”
Quintez Brown and blm, founded by three marxists. Oh, how I can smell the garbage of communism, a cesspool of toxic waste, right Mr. Gun Control, Quintez?
AND THIS IS why i keep advocating that we REMOVE PROTECTIONS FROM the media.. NO LONGER Should they enjoy carte blanche to do what ever the hell they want, with NO REPERCUSSIONS..
“A BLM black nationalist shot at a Jew and got bailed out with ease by BLM and the far left wants me to believe white supremacy is the problem in this country”.
Anatomically, we all share the same type of body—identical parts doing the same job in each one—except for the brain. There is no common degree of rational thinking among humans. I don’t understand why that is because the resulting stupidity is astonishing. It never ceases to amaze me how two people can look at the same identical situation and each walk away with totally different views. Facts are facts—where in the hell is the disconnect? I ask this rhetorically because I know this is where the spiritual element comes into play and Satan gains control of so many people’s minds. How much of this is due to a person’s free will?
BECAUSE to the left, FACTS ARE racist/sexist, so don’t exist.
BLM is just as much an organized crime syndicate as the rest of them. Their biggest perk is that they have fooled the lesser intelligent population. Word to these anti American supporters this crime family will turn on each other and will eventually turn on you too. But not before that all have nice homes, shiney new cars, shiney new mouth grills and shiney new jewelry. Oh, compliments of their moronic supporters.
THEY ARE more of a terrorist org, THAN some we label that, are…

Yusra Khogali co-founder of the anti-racial “Black Lives Matter” argued that white people are “recessive genetic defects” and
purportedly mused about how the white race could be “wiped out,”
“Plz Allah give me strength to not kill these men and white folks out here today.”
Yusra Khogali wrote on Facebook that “Whiteness is not humanness”
and that “white skin is sub-human,”
Yusra Khogali, leader of the “anti-racist” Black Lives Matter movement, does not hide her hatred of white people in her comments on social media.
Mr Brown’s lawyers says he has mental health issues. My question then is ,do they all have mental health issues ???
AND IF he had so obvious mental health issues, WHEN THE HELL DID HE get the gun, WHO did he buy it from and how!
The hypocricy is sickening! If any conservative even vocalized what that BLM thug did, we would be excoriated in the press, threatned with life in prision and treated as scum. He gets a pass because he’s black. THATS racism! In hatred, he attempted MURDER! He should be locked up for life! Not because of the color of his skin, but because of his actions.
Not just murder, but MURDER of a public official…
