Related: About this forumTexas Man Arrested After Reportedly Vandalizing his Own Truck, Targeting 'Black Lives Matter'
Scott Lattin claimed his truck was vandalized by people angry at his Police Lives Matter message. One of the vandalized messages said Black Lives Matter. There was a GoFundMe page set up to get money from the country. One person is said to have sent in all of what little money they had.
As it turns out, Whitney police ended up arresting Lattin because he reportedly vandalized the truck himself. The police chief called the charge very disturbing. Apparently video taken when the police first visited had no interior damage, and then later news clips revealed interior damage with cut seats and a damaged dash.
A reporter asked Lattin, as police arrested him, if he did vandalize the truck. He denied it. A police affidavit says he admitted to damaging the inside of his truck for insurance purposes.

They are so determined to show that white people are the "victims" that they create their own persecution.
