The instigators of all the violence are mistaken if they think it will help Hitlery. It will help Donald Trump.

From another article:
Police said the incident between downtown and the university campus began as an argument inside an apartment.

“The argument transitioned outside where a fight broke out and shots were fired,” Champaign police said in a statement. “The victims in the incident were not involved in the fight. Mr. Korchev was walking near the area when the shots were fired.”

Yes, lets all give up our Constitutional Rights because a tiny minority abuses them.
