Proud Boys to attend Jan. 6 DC rallies 'incognito'
Source: The Hill
Members of the far-right group the Proud Boys will attend Washington, D.C., rallies for President Trump on Jan. 6 "incognito," with leaders of the group saying they will dress in "all BLACK" to mimic the attire of anti-fascist groups and counterprotesters.
The group is known for its signature black and yellow clothing during rallies and protests, where they typically appear in large groups. The group's chairman, Enrique Tarrio, announced on social media that group members "might dress in all BLACK for the occasion."
Additionally, members of the group will likely branch off into smaller formations to remain "incognito."
Thousands of people are expected to gather in the District on Wednesday for at least four planned pro-Trump rallies protesting the certification of President-elect Joe Biden. Protests will be underway as Congress convenes to count the electoral votes approved by the House in December.

(6,228 posts)happened to our country? The hotel they usually stay in (Hamilton) has announced that they will be closed from 1/4/21 - 1/6/21. We don't need to give trump any reason to send out the troops and declare Martial Law. I have never been so scared for my country as now.

The Feds have ways to know who has a burner phone. It's how much energy they want to put into preemptive tracking.
They will pair faces to the groups. This isn't the 1990s anymore.

(7,430 posts)And yes, facial recognition has likely already identified most of the extreme right wing in DC thus far. The eyes of the world are on DC and Georgia, so the LEAs are going to be watched. The "observers" will want to know if the US still has its gonads, and if not, who does?Only the US' adversaries will want to see the US fail as a sovereign democratic republic. It looks like one of the adversaries is Trump himself.

(12,582 posts)He might try to use that as an excuse to something nefarious. Maybe declare a national emergency. Maybe nuke Iran. He'll do anything to try to stop the counting of the electoral votes and officially -- and historically -- make him a LOSER.
73 million people think this is the kind of person they want as president. Scary.
The Republicans still stand with him. WTF is going on?

(6,547 posts)The protests turned riot in Oregon, Minnesota, and other places this past summer had a lot of proud boys, boogaloo, 3%ers, etc. roaming the streets causing havoc. Please, everyone, DO NOT engage with these losers on January 6th, just stay home!

That hoards of "antifa" were running around in sinister, powerful black was their own lie. I suspect they realized it was costing them their own identity color, so they're taking it back.

Oh and get some mental health care after this is over... from a concerned citizen. Find a nice Democratic Rep. that will surely help you in any way they can to access the many programs that a liberal society of safety nets have provided for such times of trouble that you or your family might find yourselves in for various reasons beyond your control .... LIKE A WORLD WIDE PANDEMIC that your leader helped exacerbate ... but maybe you need to live in a BLUE STATE or you may be shit out of luck.

(14,173 posts)Maybe not the Proud Boys per say. But provocateurs, usually hired by the police, have joined in protests for decades already. They pretend to be part of the Black Block anarchist group, convenient in that they wear black face coverings.
They are the ones that help steer the younger angry protesters to throw rocks through windows, and at police. Then run and hide behind police lines when the batons and rubber bullets and tear gas come out. All to give the protest bad press.

(6,265 posts)agents provocateurs...want martial law, want to prove violence will get them what they seek. I think they are wrong. And please continue to underestimate my resolve to keep my right to vote in our system, as is and has been. Outright take the government by the power of violence is an option the fascists on the right drool over. Its a fantasy without merit. The testicular and ovarian material to even try to get Americans to back you is observable. You can make real noise. Provide MSM with their rating orgasms. Real Americans will keep our country. Patriots all. Then retaliation becomes another right of citizens against RW oppression...
