Violence erupted at the ‘We the People’ rally in Philadelphia Saturday after hundreds of far-left Antifa thugs showed up to cause trouble.

A planned rally by conservative groups to show support for ICE and police officers was met with hundreds of black-clad, masked Antifa thugs on Saturday near the Independence Visitor Center on 5th and 6th streets.

According to reports, about 80 conservatives showed up to the rally compared to the hundreds of Antifa thugs who showed up to counter-protest (cause trouble).

According to the police commissioner, 4 people were arrested; one person punched a police captain.

The left is not satisfied with stealing seats during this election. So this is how the proceed.

This will not end well for them.

This Antifa is fruit of some of George Soros's money.

Well it says hundreds? There are elements of Antifa who are not just mouthy. They are hardened core, thugs.

This will not end well.

Why does Trump continue to allow Antifa to operate with impunity? He could declare them a domestic terrorist organization tomorrow and round them up under the patriot act.

"A planned rally by conservative groups to show support for ICE and police officers was met with hundreds of black-clad, masked Antifa thugs on Saturday near the Independence Visitor Center on 5th and 6th streets."

If the mainstream media reported on this incident at all, I'm sure they framed it as:

"Concerned citizens confront dangerous mob of far right, white nationalists."

Spellcheck Fail.

It's "Filthydelphia", and with very good reason.

You could help President Trump by naming the head of Antifa and maybe an office location or two.

They have Twitter accounts and several chapters were using paypal until recently when they finally deplatformed a handful of them. I’m pretty sure the FBI can figure that out real quick if they wanted to.

How about the intelligence bureaucracy actually does something useful for once?
