Default No doubt the shooters...

....were practicing for the next Trump rally:

Simmering racial tensions boiled over yet again on Monday when a small
group of white men allegedly shot five people who had been protesting
the recent police killing of an African American man in Minneapolis.

The shooting occurred at around 10:41 p.m. Monday night just one block
from Minneapolis Police Department’s 4th Precinct, where protesters have
held daily demonstrations since the fatal Nov. 15 police shooting of
24-year-old Jamar Clark.

Police announced on Twitter early Tuesday morning that five people had
suffered non-life-threatening gunshot wounds, and that officers were
searching for three white suspects who had fled the scene.

A police spokesman confirmed to The Washington Post that those shot had
been protesting outside the police station before the incident.

A video recorded by a journalist at the scene showed people fleeing the
shooting, then screaming for an ambulance. A young African American man
can be seen writhing in pain with an apparent gunshot wound to the leg
while fellow protesters, then police and paramedics, try to help.
