I worry about the safety of the Protest Warriors.
These anarchist bullies, like all punk gangsters, find strength only in numbers. They ALWAYS have numbers on the PW guys.
The Warriors are hardnosed young guys. But these ANSWER ghouls don't fight by the Marquis of Queensbury rules. They're like how the Spanish referred to the Moors ... "at your feet or at your throat". One of the PW guys/gals is going to get hurt wading into that abyss with all those certifiable cutthroats.
I have a bad feeling about prospects for that crew. I don't advise their approach. Not now.
down south...the left is soft...plain and simple
i've freeped with the PWs here
the left here is pretty much academic or queer or stoned or just goofy....they won't bust a grape
up north with union thugz in the mix, i imagine it's different
Don't PW'ers always video tape their counter-protests? Perhaps, in order to defend against having the camera destroyed, place it some distance away with a telephoto lens and parabolic mike.
PW just needs to make sure they exercise thier 2nd, as well as 1st Amendment rights.
