Lafayette Jeff visited the McCutcheon Mavericks on Monday night. At first, things seemed even between the teams. Then McCutcheon took off and never looked back.
TAUNTON Two cultures and ideologies clashed verbally on the Taunton Green Saturday morning as people supporting the controversial thin blue line flag mural at Taunton High School rallied and were met by Black Lives Matter counter-protesters.
Each group claimed a side of the Green, putting up their flags and playing music. On the pro-police side, rally-goers waived thin blue line flags, raised one American flag and played country and classic rock music.
On the Black Lives Matter (BLM) side, protesters put up BLM flags, rainbow flags with the word peace on them, the transgender rights flag and the Philadelphia-style pride flag, which includes black and brown stripes for Black and brown people and pink and blue stripes for transgender people. Beyoncé, A Tribe Called Quest and Bob Marley, as well as other Black artists, could be heard playing near the flags.
