    We could have another Charlottesville tomorrow if the police are again told to stand down.

    If cities continue to give out permits for this stuff, then in the name of safety they shouldn't give permits to counter protesters and arrest anyone counter protesting and charge them with inciting violence. At the very least, any permits for counter protesting should be issued for a location no where near the main event. This is exactly what the DNC did so there shouldn't be any complaints.

    Let's hope not.

    Our governor and the mayor of Charlottesville were complicit in the death and injuries that occurred at last weekend's protests here in Virginia and both of them should be impeached for their gross, and what appears to be deliberate and premeditated, negligence.

    I hope the mayor of Boston and the governor of Massachusetts have learned from their mistakes. The free and lawful exercise of the American's people's civil rights are not a play toy for unscrupulous politicians.

    Faine Greenwood and Daniel Scarnecchia, who are the organizers of that event opposing the Nazis and white supremacists, work at the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative. They aren't "Antifa". Good grief, Steve.

    Thank you!! I have been saying McAuliffe should be investigated as well. He knew darn good an well when the ACLU got the WH permit reinstated violence could ensue. He just let it happen.

    Isn't opposing fascists by definition anti fascist? If they organized the fascist protest then should they be held responsible for their demonstrators bringing weapons to the 'event?'

    The white supremacists bring shields right?

    Just do the old testudo formation while the leftists throw their piss bottles and make sure it's caught on film.

    You're joking, right? Antifa members shield their identities. They hide their faces to avoid being identified by the police. If you're Antifa, you don't provide your real names so everyone knows where you work.

    Holy ****, you seriously didn't know that?

    Now there are people in here who don't know that the point of Antifa wearing masks and black garb is because they don't want to be identified.

    These people are posting all sorts of **** and don't have the slightest clue what they're posting about.

    Well one thing is certain, the counter protesters don't understand American values like free speech. It is against case law to shut down a protest based on content of speech.

    See, this part I don't understand either.

    The racist asshats have little trouble, (these days at least) having their faces seen.

    The antifa asshats, supposed Rightious fighters against fascism, are scared/ashamed(?) to show theirs.

    Odd that really.

    So what you are really saying is that these 2 could be ANTIFA but hide behind their cloak of professionalism. At the same time, they could just be naive academics that don't realize that their rally is going to be overtaken by ANTIFA.

    the white supremacists are the ones killing people, more worried about them being on the move, regardless, I would not go to an event of either

    do the snowflake white supremacists need a safe space so they can spread their hate without no one protesting them?

    can you imagine if this was ISIS giving a hate speech rally against our fellow Americans.... some speech deserves to be protested

    sure they are free to say it, but people are also free to say their bit against it too

    once either side starts making death threats or talks of violence though, it has to end, I thought the same under Obama, the violent groups need to be arrested and investigated for inciting violence

    This is one of the stupidest posts I've read in ages. I won't waste my time posting about Antifa to someone who doesn't even know what it is.

    Counter protesting is one thing.

    Having a goal to shut down the other side's right to protest is quite another.

    But that only seems to fly one way these days.


    But you already know this I suspect.
