The arrests stemmed from a scuffle among competing demonstrators outside the busy Hollywood and Highland shopping complex, police said. An anti-Trump protester who received a minor laceration during the skirmish was given medical aid from a rival demonstrator.

Despite a lot of shouting and name calling, the demonstrations remained mostly peaceful and without incident.

...

The anti-Trump protest, one of several taking place around the country Saturday, is being organized by RefuseFascism. Dozens of people were expected to participate in the rally, according to organizers.

“The Trump/Pence Regime daily escalates its fascist attacks on immigrants and Muslims, on healthcare and the poor, on Black and Brown people, on women and LGBTQ folks, on the media, on the environment, on the right to protest, on the truth,” the organizers stated on their Facebook account.

These people throw “fascist “ around which cracks me up. Invented BY A SOCIALIST, for gawd’s sake.

Refuse Fascism. It is a good name for them when you put the stress on the first syllable.

"Refuse Racism" and referring to the "Trump/Pence Regime" are the fingerprints of the Socialist Worker's Party at work. They used some of the same phraseology during their pro-enemy stuff during the Vietnam War.

Back then, they, and their Lefty media pals referred to the South Vietnamese government as the "Saigon Regime" for the same purpose, to delegitimize our allies.

The main way you can spot SWP work are their penchant for "mass events". the word "smash" used a lot. like "smash capitalism" and a stylized fist on their posters.

Guys like that lunkhead don’t fare so well outside Leftist enclaves. When the AntiFa Wobblies showed up in Raleigh and got frisky, three of them got arrested pretty quickly,

AntiFa stands for Anti First Amendment in my book.
