Things have turned bad in Louisville very quickly.

As we reported earlier, it was clear that things were going to get out of hand very quickly when the grand jury came in and decided not to charge the officers in the Breonna Taylor case, just charging one officer with a low-level felony for wanton endangerment because his bullets went into a neighboring apartment during the shooting encounter at Taylor’s apartment.

A U-Haul even pulled up with Antifa supplies including shields to provide people and many were armed with wooden sticks, batons, or bats.

They began smashing things and setting fires.

They even set fire to the Justice Center. But when police came out to put out the fire, they attacked the police, beaning one of the cops in the head.
