Trump supporters protesting Twitter censorship clash with Antifa and BLM activists in violent scenes in San Francisco
UK Daily Mail ^ | October 18, 2020 | Rachel Sharp

Violence erupted at San Francisco's United Nations Plaza on Saturday as Trump supporters protesting Twitter censorship clashed with activists from Black Lives Matter and Antifa.

The free speech rally was organized by right-wing group Team Save America after Twitter blocked circulation of a New York Post story about Hunter Biden's emails and locked the Trump campaign account this week.

Hundreds of counter-protesters turned up holding Black Lives Matter signs while others were dressed in black clothing with their faces covered and waving flags for violent left-wing group Antifa. Others wore t-shirts claiming membership of the anti-fascist action group 161 Crew.

“violent left-wing group Antifa” -— I am shocked the Daily Mail, or any major paper, would print the truth about Antifa. Now if they could do the same with the Black Lives Matter thugs.

Here is the SF Chronicle version:

Conservatives staging free speech rally attacked by critics

A free speech demonstration staged by conservative activists quickly fell apart in downtown San Francisco on Saturday after several hundred counterprotesters surged the area, outnumbering and attacking those gathered, including knocking one in the mouth.

A photographer working for The Associated Press witnessed a Trump supporter being taken away in an ambulance and an injured San Francisco police officer on the ground by San Francisco’s United Nations Plaza.

ANTI-FA.....it started out as ANTI FIRST AMENDMENT and then they or the media changed it to anti- FASCIST....IF they were anti-Fascist they would NOT be fighting AGAINST FREE SPEECH, which PROVES that they are ANTI-FIRST AMENDMENT!!

Word choice aside, when even the San Fran Chron acknowledges which aide was the aggressor, that’s something.

The media and lefts narrative is the white supremacists. Who are the white supremacists to them? people who will step up to protect themselves and their families. Shut up and sit down and take it or else is what they are telling us. Why is the president being questioned so unrelentingly lately about denouncing white supremacists? because the day is coming when we have had enough and we are going to come back at them until it is finished!

A mob hiding their identities violently implements fascism while carrying signs of “Smash Fascism.”

It should be illegal to cover your face in public.

The San Fran Chron knows what they are doing and that is to be seen separating the chaff from the wheat. They want to be seen separating Antifaux from BLM. Perception is everything! If you can convince people a duck is a cow, then it must be a cow, right? MR2Ducks!

What is happening now is the acceleration of an agenda towards a 2nd CW in the United STates. And to top things off, the history of the lead up to the first CW is being repeated and most are blind to it. Some FRs on here think we are not heading towards a CW and whomever believes in QAnon must be wearing a tinfoil hat. Well people also believed in the tinhat theory that Russia colluded with Trump and some still do.

Vote Trump and save the world (only for four more years and then after that it is guaranteed that SHTF).

White thug had something in his gloves when he knocked out 8 teeth of the black patriot. The patriot posted on twitter.

Aggravated assault. But unless feds vis Trump step in and arrest Antifa nothing will happen.

Never understood how national socialism and a system of government control with some private property ownership is “right wing.”

It's not. Leftists have corrupted fascism's definition attempting to create a view that they're not capable of it. In reality they are the worst fascists. NAZI’s. ANTIFA. Socialism and communism. Blacklisting. Corruption of news, media, academia, science, etc. Political correctness. Stopping speech.
