Three weeks before Micah Xavier Johnson opened fire on Dallas police, he offered to work security for protesters outside a Donald Trump appearance in Dallas. Organizers said “no way” – because Johnson wanted to bring a gun.
Rev. Peter Johnson is a longtime Dallas civil rights activist – and no relation to the suspected shooter. Johnson has led marches for decades, going back to his years with Martin Luther King Jr. He’s lived by King’s ethos of non-violence.
“Young man comes and says 'I’m going to participate, I want to help, but I want to bring my gun,'” Johnson recalls. “I say 'Hell no; you can’t bring your gun.' That’s all I remember about him. I told him you can’t bring your gun to a protest that I’m involved in.”

Dallas Shooting Suspect Wanted To Bring Gun To Trump Protest Rally, Civil Rights Leader Says
This was reported today.
Seems this agent of death was rejected by the reasonable old school civil rights organizers. He wanted to bring a gun to a Trump rally and act as security. Don't think he would have made it by the Secret Service but you never know. There needs to be a public accounting for his involvement in these protests. He must have had intimate knowledge of the planned march well in advance, scouted his kill zone and that requires inside intelligence. He may have been accepted by BLM organizers to gain that knowledge, this is proof he was seeking access to public events through contacting protest organizers.
BLM likely taking in the radical, whereas the seasoned veterans of civil rights protests rejected him, needs more public disclosure.

I'm inclined to think that this Reverend is against anyone exercising their right of self protection as opposed to specifically denying Micah Johnson.
If Jesus had wanted to carry a firearm, pretty sure Reverend Johnson would still have said "hell no".
