Protesters keep it peaceful

Mason Schaffer, left to right, Jake Ward and Noah Schnipke sit across the street from the protesters on the courtsquare on Sunday, May 31. The three friends hold signs that say “Cops aren’t racist the media is, not all cops are bad and blessed are the peace makers for they shall be children of God Matthew 5:9. Ward said of George Floyd’s death after being restrained by a Minneapolis police officer, “That was wrong but one bad apple doesn’t make the whole bunch bad.” Schnipke said of the protesters “They’re saying “black lives matter.” All lives matter including blue lives.”
