The permit, issued in accordance with the 1st Amendment right of free speech and assembly, was for the Traditional Worker Party. According to their website, “Without exception, all identities and cultures have an inalienable right to take pride in their heritage and to preserve their communities and identities, including the White identity.” Except, whites are the only group not allowed to demonstrate any “pride”, so the racists over at the Southern Poverty Law Center automatically labeled them as a hate-group.
I don’t know if there were any actual KKK people among the 30 or so original participants, since I wasn’t there of course, but from the flip-Mexican, interviewed by CNN, who seemed to be a gangleader, the counter group = who had pre-printed signs = were spoonfeeding the propaganda that any time white folks gather they are automatically “genocidal” KKKs who ‘want to kill’ the minorities, and needed to be ‘beaten down’ - and so they did, with concrete chunks, knives, rocks, sticks, bottles, bricks and bats. These are just a few of the lovely low-information, intolerant, emotionally driven folks we allow into our country and that the Dems want more of.
It was a beat and maim non-minorities day - just like Trump rallies and just like the numerous unreported attacks that occur in highschool neighborhoods in California every day.
