Members of the Three Percenters militia are also in downtown Louisville for an armed counter demonstration.
The black nationalist group says they are in Kentucky to demand justice for Breonna Taylor, a 26-year-old Black woman who was fatally shot by police during a raid.
"One person of the #NFAC militia group accidentally discharged his weapon injuring himself and one other individual. Both individuals have been taken away by EMS. One shot in the leg and one shot in the hand," Disclose.tv reported on Twitter.
The Three Percenters (III%) militia is also holding a counter demonstration in the area. A few hundred people are now facing off, armed with weapons.
They are currently being kept apart by barricades set up by the Louisville Metro Police Department.
"You got no business being here. It ain't your state," Nick Alsager of the Three Percenters said of the NFAC.
The last time the NFAC marched they confronted random drivers with weapons to demand reparations.

The three people, all members of the NFAC, suffered non-life threatening injuries, according to the Louisville Metro Police Department. The shooter was also a member of the militia.

"Today, shortly before 1:00 pm, three people were struck by gunfire as the result of a discharge of someone's gun who was participating in the NFAC demonstration at Baxter Park," Louisville Metro's interim Chief of Police Robert Schroeder said in a statement. "Louisville Division of Fire and LMEMS arrived a short time later and transported all three victims to the University of Louisville Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. All involved are members of the NFAC and there are no outstanding suspects."

To me, conducting training in a public place with live ammunition constitutes "fucking around". NFAC is actually a bunch of assholes fucking around with loaded firearms, and fucking around with the lives of everyone around them. They will continue fucking around until a bunch of them kill a lot of people.
Enough, already. This has gone too far.
Ridiculous, dough-brained, poseur a**holes.
