FULL TITLE: Hundreds of anti-Trump protesters clash with his supporters during Berkeley protest: 14 activists covered in blood are arrested as demonstration in California descends into a massive brawl
At least 15 people have been arrested after violence broke out Saturday between groups of Trump supporters and detractors holding rallies in downtown Berkeley, according to police.
Hundreds of people with opposing opinions on President Donald Trump threw stones, lit fires, tossed explosives and tear gas and attacked each other with makeshift weapons as police stood by.
Violence escalated when counter-protesters against a pro-Trump 'Patriot's Day' rally broke through netting separating the two groups in Berkeley's Martin Luther King Jr Civic Center Park.
Supporters of the president attended a 'Patriot's Day' rally, which was organized by the Liberty Revival Alliance, potentially as a counterpoint to Tax Marches being held in cities across the country.
At least 200 people were at the park on Saturday morning when several members of the opposing groups broke through netting separating the two and started pushing each other, the reported Mercury News.

Actually this marks a significant change in the mindset. Now Trump Supporters are actually landing blows and drawing blood on and from the Antifa wussies. This will either lessen the Antifa peeps or it will escalate the next time. I watched several videos. The Trump supporters seemed disorganized and the antifa peeps were somewhat organized. There were professional protestors there. In one video, an Antifa individual said we should get rid of capitalism and have full blown communism. They don’t come any smarter than this guy.
California again..................
Berkeley Again...
