20 boogaloo’s at Garret Foster’s vigil in #austin from just now. Tweet thread as I receive info from the ground there. Rumors that 3%’s will show up. Tensions are very high. #GarrettFoster #austinprotest pic.twitter.com/rDa6XpNfkW

He died at the beginning of what’s sure to escalate into war soon... We lost a boogaloo bro who embodies the kind of American we can be proud of.... anti racist, fighting the fight “to create a more perfect union”.

I gather from this fellow's reply to one of the photos above that these street fighting men things can get quite complicated:

That's not the Boogaloo. That's John Brown Gun Club masquerading as the Boog. It's a false flag tactic.

From July 29 in Portland:

Earlier tonight a lone Boogaloo Boi handed a manifesto / pamphlet / unhinged screed to a member of the Portland Press Corps. For your edification and instruction, Garrison and Elaine read it with commentary.https://t.co/hA0JgZXD7H

F.B.I. June 16 on Oakland case:

Steven Carrillo and his alleged accomplice "came to Oakland to kill cops," said John Bennett, special agent in charge of the San Francisco division of the FBI.

NOT ANTIFA, ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY.

The Boogaloo extremist who ambushed a cop last week killed another cop in Oakland, trying to stoke unrest at protests

"Use their anger to fuel our fire. We have mobs of angry people to use to our advantage" his FB.https://t.co/9s9D3EiT2O 01

There's the simple hook between these two guys and BLM: they hate cops and BLM is conveniently out on the street protesting cops.

ah, on a lighter note, iconography, one of my favorite things

The Hawaiian shirt has become the de-facto uniform of the Boogaloo Boys, an alt-right faction. It wasn't always this way https://t.co/7H9rBYW5sG

here's a different oddball group that supports BLM because he hates cops--is mainly rabidly anti-Federal government

This is consistent. He and some of his supporters hate the police. https://t.co/vmOmLLQEAw

it's Ammon Bundy and his followers wikipedia entry here

But it's not like he's going to protests, he's busy with his own Idaho stuff et. al.
