ESPN’s Kellerman: ‘Extremist, right-wing agitators’ to blame for many riots

Published



ESPN host Max Kellerman blamed “extremist, right-wing agitators” for a “big percentage” of recent riots.

“When he talks about, like, Black Lives Matter, 93% of the protests are peaceful. The vast, overwhelming majority are peaceful. And, by the way, the 7% that are not — they have a very broad definition of what’s not, quote on quote, peaceful,” Kellerman said on Tuesday’s edition of First Take. “For example, if you block traffic or something like that, or if you respond to police provocation. And even then, a big percentage of that, that wasn’t peaceful, is actually outside agitators — extremist, right-wing agitators posing as protesters in order to make the protests look bad.”
