Welcome to the club, a$$hole! How many times have conservatives been subjected to the same treatment by your compatriots, hmmm?

Sure, you already played into their hands, might as well get our side thrown in jail at the same time.

Thank you for your concern. Concern Cat is concerned.

How is a show of force and readiness to fight against the potential of looting and arson "not a good look?"

Coverage and reaction is that a bunch of bullies with guns showed up to scream and swear at unarmed people who were peacefully protesting. That ugly little bearded guy in the middle is drawing comparisons to freedom riders who were met with threats and intimidation back in the 60's.

The tone of the article is disgust, and this is the Daily Mail. How do you think it's playing on every other outlet?

Not a good look.

He is a newbie and we will have to wait and see where he is coming from.

In a perfect world, you throw a first punch in defense, however, we have no idea what that punch-ee was doing prior to “standing around quietly and peacefully”.

And so far, from we’ve seen in the past weeks, his “quiet peaceful behavior” would be an exception and not a rule.

In giving this some thought, BLM wants pushback, which they are not getting in large liberal cites. So why not go into small, predominantly white areas, and trigger these people to get exactly what this article wants, images and news of violent white, “redneck” racists attacking peaceful protesters.

“I wonder how many of the 80 BLM Protesters were actually white leftists?”

I assume 80.

Good question. Maybe because the “rednecks” will get sympathy because they are defending themselves from an invasion of violent thugs. Maybe because people working for the news live in those areas.

How many times have we read “Why isn’t anyone standing up to them? The Colonists would be shooting by now!”

Yet if somebody pushes back, it’s bad?

Can’t have it both ways.

It’s so confusing at this point. Guy who gets love tapped complains to the cop. I thought they wanted cops gone?

“But it has been proven that there are violent antifa types hiding in the crowds.”

The guy who hit him looked like a patriotic old good old boy. People are getting fed up and starting to hit back.

These Antifa punks need hit more often.

I think it is a good sign people are starting to hit back. Long overdue.

You’re dreaming if you think ANY counter protest would get the coverage you imagine.

The MSM in all countries is in a propaganda war and the truth was the first casualty. It didn’t matter what the counter protesters actually did, the coverage would be the same.
