more than 100 black-clad masked antifa broke through police barricades at a 'Rally Against Hate' and assaulted at least four, including the leader of a pro-Trump conservative group.

Lol, if the rally against hate gets pounded this much, imagine if it had been a rally for hate!

Note that the coverage is from a UK news site, not an American one.

Those that hate have to be met with violence,
or Boycotting them & their ilk.

Fuck the U.K. & their Monarchy.
America don't play that!
Emperor Trump won't be around long?

This looks like a campaign to remove anything right-leaning from the protection of the First Amendment.
1: Remove Nazi from the protection of the 1st amendment. De facto if not de jure.
2: Label Nazi anything that's not left. De facto if not de jure.
1 and 2 are not sequential. They are processes, overlapping in time, assisting their mutual progress, and using similar methods (violence, bullying, and outcry)

How serious is it? Well, it appears that the violent left is quite well organized.

POCs can't be racist, but Whites can and are.

Maybe the right and the mainstream media should come to an agreement. The mainstream media will stop ignoring violence from the conservative left if the conservative right stops denying man-made climate change and its consequences. If it helps, we can tie gun rights to climate change. The more sever the effects of climate change, the few gun rights you have. The more climate change is mitigates, the more gun rights you have.

Explain this to me: if some group applies and gets approval for a permit to run a rally at certain place and certain time, isn't it the gov't responsibility to make sure the approved event runs undisturbed by "counter-demonstrators"? WTF is the purpose of a permit if this is not a case? If announcing to the whole world in advance when and where you plan to assemble means that your freedom to do so is going to be trampled while authorities are idly standing by, why would anyone apply for such a permit? Keeping your plans secret and announcing to the press at the very last moment seems like better bet.

US media ignores it

Today's Washington Post:

"Black-clad antifa members attack peaceful right-wing demonstrators in Berkeley

Their faces hidden behind black bandannas and hoodies, about 100 anarchists and antifa— “anti-fascist” — members barreled into a protest Sunday afternoon in Berkeley’s Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park.

Jumping over plastic and concrete barriers, the group melted into a larger crowd of around 2,000 that had marched peacefully throughout the sunny afternoon for a “Rally Against Hate” gathering.
***
All told, the Associated Press reported at least five individuals were attacked. An AP reporter witnessed the assaults. Berkeley Police’s Lt. Joe Okies told The Washington Post the rally resulted in “13 arrests on a range of charges including assault with a deadly weapon, obstructing a police officer, and various Berkeley municipal code violations.”
***
In February, 150 similarly black-clad agitators caused $100,000 worth of damage when they smashed through Berkeley protesting a University of California at Berkeley speech by right-wing provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos. Portland, Ore., has been the scene of street battles between antifa members and white nationalists this summer. White nationalist Richard Spencer was sucker-punched by a protester in a January video that went viral. And Inauguration Day 2017 in Washington, D.C., was marked by violence when masked protesters burned vehicles, smashed windows and clashed with police, leading to 231 arrests.
"

It looks like WaPo covered it, for a change.

Go ahead Rep/Con/Nazi's piss-off the left.

Liberal Professor Ken Storey from the University of Tampa that Texas deserved the devastation of Hurricane Harvey because they voted for Trump.
What a scumbag.
