People who are coming to start fires, wreck property. Once they identify them, attack them and then beat the shit out of them.

(16,616 posts)"beat the shit out of them" but they do make their presence felt, unmask and completely humiliate them on camera for all eternity. (I've only seen one provocateur get the shit beat out of him in Hong Kong, but he'll survive). The Hong Kong protesters have got this down to a science. They are so organized and methodical, they really should write a book about protesting.

(7,582 posts)and you know it. We are a divided nation with one half of the country who despises anyone that doesn't look like them and the other half struggling to get by. I'm 70 years old and have heard the same old tired rhetoric all of my life. The young people are the only ones that can change things and by whatever means possible.
If nothing else the election of Trump has clearly identified the enemy - but never underestimate nasty white people.

Anyone that would vote for Trump in my mind is part of the problem, regardless of the reason.
