Lenny Dykstra Says Dale Murphy’s Son is A Antifa Member After Being Shot In Eye With Rubber Bullet At Protests (tweet)

Former Major League Baseball player Dale Murphy revealed over the weekend that his son, Tyson, “was shot in the eye with a rubber bullet while peacefully protesting for justice for George Floyd” Saturday night in Denver, but the eye was saved by protective goggles.

Last night, my son was shot in the eye with a rubber bullet while peacefully protesting for justice for George Floyd. His story is not unique. Countless others have also experienced this use of excessive police force while trying to have their voices heard.

As terrible as this experience has been, we know that it's practically nothing compared to the systemic racism and violence against Black life that he was protesting in the first place. Black communities across America have been terrorized for centuries by excessive police force.

Please consider taking action for a more just world. You can protest peacefully. You can donate to your local @Blklivesmatter chapter, the @NAACP_LDF or read this guide for other ways to help protestors. https://t.co/tdA8npGEym

The 64-year-old former NL MVP then shared a photo of his son as well as a drawing his son drew of Floyd:

His former teammate with the Phillies, Lenny Dykstra, saw the post and proceeded to call him out for being a member of Antifa.

Well, that from one half of Mr. Clean and Dr. Dirt. So inevitably u need to hear from the bad boy of the duo … No children of Lenny Dykstra have had issues w police resulting from being part of an #Antifa mob. We Dykstras have proper respect for the men in blue. @CrimeInSports https://t.co/ug24O26DfH pic.twitter.com/b77Mv9PhYf

BTW I wouldn’t be enjoying this if @DaleMurphy3 had said one damn thing in my support after Ron Darling’s vile lies about me. Fuck him and his loser kid.

Floyd died while in Minneapolis police custody when former Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin, who was charged with third-degree murder as well as second-degree manslaughter, put his knee on the neck of the unarmed 46-year-old for minutes during the arrest.

Protests surrounding police brutality and racial injustice have erupted nationwide over the weekend.
