Have you ever gone to a protest before?






Dailymail has revealed the horrifying picture of 21 y/o Indiana Protester, Balin Brake who lost an EYE after he was hit in the FACE by a TEAR GAS CANNISTER while attending a demonstration!

He suffered the devastating injury at 530pm in Fort Wayne while protesting the death of George Floyd

After getting out of surgery, he told dailymail "Protesters were in the streets. Cops yelled 'disperse' then began launching tear gas cannisters into the crowd. One hit and burned my shoe. I began to run and as i turned around to see what was going on behind me, a cannister hit my face. I didn't feel a lot of pain because the right side of my face went numb, but i instantly knew my eye was done for. I couldn't see out of it and there was blood leaking from it."

Blake works part time as a video editor for a local news station and said he was protesting peacefully as he felt anger and violence isn't going to fix the problems they were facing

He had to undergo surgery where it was revealed his eye RUPTURED and said the officer unnecessarily and improperly fired a tear gas canister at his head

His eye had to be removed and will now have to get a prosthetic put in weeks later

But he told his twitter followers "This pales in comparison to the hardships African Americans have endured for decades. Stand up for what u believe in. I regret nothing. I'll say the same thing i've been saying. This is chess not checkers. My eye is small collateral damage when you think of what the big picture is. If i could get back on the streets for the protest today, i would be. The police need policing. The white skin of mine is a privilege and if ully intend to use my privilege to advocate and continue to help my fellow people. Black Lives Matter"

That is so messed up. Heard a woman who was just bringing groceries home get hit too. If it had just been an inch higher she would have lost her eye too.
