The counter protest to the Free Speech Rally on the Boston Common went off nearly as expected.
The Free Speech people were already at the Boston Common bandstand, protected by a ring of Boston Police on foot, then a second ring of police on bicycles, then a third ring of metal fencing about 200 feet from the bandstand. At that distance, none of the protestors could throw anything and hit the Free Speechers in the bandstand.
About half to two thirds of the protestors were there by 11 A.M., organizing, milling about, shouting obscenities while touting their equally obscene signs. They were a mob seething with anger, ready to spring into action, while anxiously waiting for their leaders to come.
Then they came.
The cheers moved like a wave through the now enormous crowd to welcome the black-shirted, black-masked throngs moving like a bulldozer in rapid motion towards the center, looking like a cross between ninja warriors and SS storm troopers, sans the insignia.
Antifa had arrived.
The same Antifa that had burned Ferguson, gutted Baltimore, trashed Berkeley, were now poised to take down Boston.
The thousands on the Common, galvanized by their men (and women) in black, pushed forward, louder and much more aggressive than before.
The anti-Trump rally had begun. The charade was lifted. They all knew what they were there for -- to violently protest Nazis, Klansmen, Trump, Republicans... or Trump, Republicans, Nazis, Klansmen. In the delusional mindset of the radical they're all one in the same. The leftist throngs see Trump as the Grand Wizard of the Klan and his supporters as Klansmen, and they were there to shout it to the world.

But there were no white hoods, no white robes, no swastikas.
The Antifa blackshirts had surrounded — and were tormenting — two young men. Two seemingly brave but naive young men, one wearing a Trump banner as a cape, the other donning an Israeli flag. They had defiantly ventured together into the leftist enemy camp. So the hysterical crowd set upon them like a pack of wolves. The two locked arms and tried to get away but the swarm surrounded them, spewing every slur imaginable, closing in on them, ready to pounce, as they tried desperately to get away, until finally — finally — the police broke through and got them out.
And all because they broadcast that they were supporters of Trump... and Israel.
Think of that. Think real hard.
If the KKK (in Boston?) actually held a rally, they would be committing suicide - certainly virtually, possibly literally.
And the First Amendment press trumpets their boldfaced lies without opposition. Except other leftists.
I would love for President Trump to refer to Antifa as domestic terrorists.
