Strongly Oppose  The effect, and presumably the intent of this merger is to cover up the incident involving the assault by the BLM protestors on the visitors.  When it appeared that the victims were black, and the perpetrators were white, nobody had a problem with separate articles.  Now that the existence of at least two videos are known, showing that the victims were white, and the perpetrators were black, everybody in the list above wants to cover up the story.  There was very much insufficient notice given, and people weren't given enough time to comment and oppose. The "notice" given was simply that somebody had made a proposal:  People were not directed to respond in any particular location. This merger is clearly a sham.  There should have been at least 3 months notice given.  There is no argument for a rapid merger.
