Latest is that they are at both Bedford and Breezewood.
Don't know if they are split, or if there are more of them.
They apparently have halted the march.
Really concerned that they haven't moved on, are they waiting for reinforcements?
Not sure if town is being covered tonight.
The Meyer's family has a bunch of friendly company again tonight.

Not sure if it was mentioned, but the BLM crew fired a 9mm in the incident.
Who shot first? Never know, but if they did it's pretty much decided.
Just found out the 9mm owner was legal in Wi.
And we have reciprocity.
Puck!
I was hoping they could lock him up for possession of an illegal weapon.
Something, huh.
Good laws biteing us and wishing for the use of bad ones!
Anyway, they are going to DC.
Through Maryland.
No way it legal for them to have a handgun, or a high cap mag.
They know they are coming, I'm sure.
What happened , and about the guns.
Think they are waiting on them?
I'm guessing they are.
With coffee and doughnuts and the key to the city.
While my compatriots fear accidently going down to Cumberland with
a handgun in the vehicle, and becoming accidental felons.

So a couple days ago the leader announced a return to Bedford county.
He said people with guns weren't going to silence their message, and posted their protest route from Fort Bedford to the Courthouse. (4 blocks, from the River up a steep hill)
Sympathetic groups from bigger surrounding towns and Pittsburgh,
simultaneously announced a peaceful rally.
That lead to a Schidt storm of response on social media and immediate
plans to show up, armed. Not, as "counter protestors" as the media
portrayed our earlier gathering...
But as a local armed Militia (yep said it), prepared to defend our homes, businesses,
and our courthouse. (Built in 1828, it's the oldest functional one in the state)
About 2 days later they canceled.
Saying that they wanted a peaceful event, and were concerned
about violence.
True?
Or, regrouping, waiting to have Antifa show up with them?
I just know that next Friday evening, they are still expected.
And if they are seen in the area, word will go out,
And a welcoming party will be gathered.

These activist types are beginning to see the down side of the monster they have created. People are scared. People are dangerous when they are scared. Dang right they are.
Life can be rough on us dreamers.

THE LATEST: Terry Myers, the property owner, had reportedly asked the group to leave numerous times and Annette Myers states that they refused to vacate the private property. Annette says that she believes that all lives matter and that their family being threatened is not something they will tolerate.
SCHELLSBURG, BEDFORD COUNTY, Pa. (WTAJ) — Shots were fired at a group of racial justice activists as their group was marching through Bedford County late Monday night.
In a statement, the Pennsylvania State Police confirmed their investigation into a shooting that took place on the 800 block of Lincoln Highway just after 11:30 p.m. According to police, the shots were fired after an argument, and two people are being questioned about their involvement.
According to an activist, one man was shot in the face and taken to the Conemaugh Memorial Medical Center in Johnstown. State police officers were on scene, interviewing people and examining cars belonging to members of the group.
The victim, 37-year-old Cino Thurman is currently recovering at the hospital and is expected to be okay.
Conemaugh Memorial responded with the following statement: “Conemaugh Health System’s top priority is to provide high-quality care for all patients seeking care at our hospital…”
The activist group, totaling about 55 people, says it has been marching from Milwaukee, Wisconsin to Washington, D.C. Frank Nitty, one of the group’s leaders, believes the incident was racially motivated.
“We don’t have signs. We’re just walking as a group. It’s just a lot to deal with, all the racism, all the hatred toward black people.”We are told the activists are planning on returning to the Schellsburg location where the incident originated to continue their walk.
We’ll have more on this story as more details unfold.
