An elderly woman was knocked over and dragged for holding an American flag and some people were throwing rocks and bottles of urine at police. 33 people were arrested out of at least 20,000 peaceful individuals banding together to condemn hate.

You will always have opportunistic a holes who will use events like this to cause strife. The right will focus on those statistically irrelevant few.

The real story is from Commissioner Evans: “99.9 percent” of the estimated 40,000 anti-racist protesters “were here for the right reasons” and that “overall it was a good day for the city.”

All the right needs is one asshole amongst tens of thousands and they soil the tens of thousands.

I can promise you that the old lady gets interviewed, but none of the 40,000 or so counter protesters will get interviewed. Maybe Fox will kind the idiots that knocked down the old lady for them to give a profanity filled speech before the cameras.

Any instance of violence on our side is redmeat for the right, they use every ounce of it.
