    Yup. Protests are clearly effective. One thing about the point of violence- if you’re at a protest and you hear threats or see violence, speak up or leave. With the new ruling by SCOTUS, one bad actor can have the entire protest charged with criminal behavior. Stay safe. Protect yourselves and one another.

        True. Although it doesn’t matter if it’s a provocateur or an actual racist, they’ll get you arrested just the same.

          Except all the nazi demonstrations get police escorts to/from the site and maybe a slap on the wrist if they hurt or kill someone.

            Because the police protect their own.

            Its why every time the nazis/fascists/racists march, the cops always have their backs to them watching the crowds… yet when people like the college students march, they stand facing them, salivating for an excuse.

      I thought this was only in a few states (5th circuit) and the SCOTUS refused to hear the case?

      Still bullshit don’t get me wrong

      Just trying to set the record straight
