Someone yelled out “Black Lives Matter” during a moment of silence to honor fallen police officers at the Democratic National Convention Thursday night.
Dallas Sheriff Lupe Valdez had asked for a moment of silence “in honor of all of America’s fallen officers,” which was punctured by at least one protester shout.
Valdez’s request for a moment of silence for fallen police officers punctured by one man who shouted, “Black Lives Matter!” #DemsinPhilly
