They were called the Proud Boys and came down from LA to start fights, incite violence and make it impossible to hear the guest speakers through their megaphone sirens. The cops did nothing until an assembly person called the chief of police. I have to say they acted sub-human. We were calm and peaceful and in comparison we were stellar human beings. As I walked to my car a pro-Trump supporter and I were on the same route and were very nice to one another and chatted. Perhaps this was because we are women and not full of testosterone.

My experience is they work in ways to provoke and incite in order to make us look like the aggressor Tiggeroshii Jul 2017 #15

Their plan backfired. In fact it made us cheer louder to drown them out. BigmanPigman Jul 2017 #16

That makes me happy Tiggeroshii Jul 2017 #17
