'We committed the crime of standing in the street,' Karlyn Borysenko says
Karlyn Borysenko describes her interactions with rally demonstrators on 'Fox & Friends Weekend.'
Rallygoers at a WalkAway Campaign event in Dallas on Saturday were confronted and chased by Black Lives Matter protesters simply for being in disagreement, WalkAway member Karlyn Borysenko told "Fox & Friends Weekend."
Borysenko said she and a few other participants had traveled to the local police station after one of their security guards and a BLM protester had been arrested for getting into an altercation. Once Borysenko and her party stepped out of their car, she said protesters "almost immediately" surrounded and began to chase them.
“We didn't even say anything to them,” she said. “We were minding our own business. ... They immediately started screaming at us, throwing things at us and then chased us down the street to where there was a group of cops ... that we were trying to get to protect us.”
The altercation turned physical, Borysenko revealed, when protesters began throwing bottles and street cones at the rally members. One member had his phone stolen and smashed, she said.
