Delco Blogger: Buffalo Brutality Was Staged.
Bill Lawrence, a Springfield (Delco) resident, publishes the Conservative-leaning BillLawrenceOnline.com.
In a post yesterday, he claimed that the incident in Buffalo, NY; where 75-year-old Martin Gugino appeared to have been pushed to the ground by police, was actually staged. To support his claim, Lawrence provides a link in his post to the website ConservativeTree House.com
In its headline, “Treehouse” labels Gugino is an “Antifa Provocateur.” As evidence that Gugino is affiliated with Antifa, “Treehouse” shows a slow-motion video of him “using his phone as a capture scanner.” According to “Treehouse,” “The capture of communications signals [explained in detail here] is a method of police tracking used by Antifa to monitor the location of police.”
“Treehouse” does not provide any other evidence that Gugino is affiliated with Antifa, but presumably, his use of a cellphone as a scanner is all the proof one might need.
75 year old man bleeding. Or is it fake blood?
Neither Lawrence, nor “Treehouse” have attempted to explain what appears to be the hemorrhaging from Gugino’s ear that resulted from the alleged dive he took after the police officer gently caressed his chest. But only the gullible would assume that it was anything other than Fake Blood.
Similarly, Lawrence and “Treehouse” chose not to discuss Gugino’s admission to an ICU unit, where he was reported (by most-likely biased and complicit news sources) to have been in “serious but stable condidtion.”
