SAN FRANCISCO (AP) At least seven people were stabbed Sunday when counter-protesters clashed with members of right-wing extremists groups that planned to hold a rally outside the California state Capitol building in Sacramento, authorities said.
California Highway Patrol Officer George Granada said about 30 members of the Traditionalist Worker Party were gathering for a rally around noon Sunday when they were met by about 400 counter-protesters and a fight broke out.
As people tried to leave the area, smaller fights broke out, Granada said. He said no arrests had been made as of Sunday afternoon.
He said the Capitol remained on lockdown three hours after the large fight broke out but that things had calmed down and only about 70 "anti-fascists" remained in the area.
Videos from the melee posted on social media showed mounted police officers dispersing a group of mainly youth, some with their faces covered, while some throw stones toward a man holding a stick and being shielded by police officers in riot gear.
Sacramento Fire Department spokesman Chris Harvey said many other people had cuts, scrapes and bruises.

Yip, got it.
Apolitical counter protestors vs extreme right wing maggots.
Betcha all of those right wingers were citizens, had real jobs and do not live with their parents.
“I’m a right-wing extremist staging a peaceful protest here at the Capitol.”
“I’m a simple ol’ counter-protester and I’m going to kick your ass!”
“I’m an objective journalist and I’m going to slap labels on you folks so that the violent communists look like the good guys!”
if only there were more knife laws on the books, we must ban Knives.
400 vs. 30 is why AR-15’s were invented. Just saying....
...especially “Assault Knives”!
Communist Party USA creates violence that will elicit police reaction. Think Haymarket, think Kent State, think Black Lives matter, think Occupy Wall Street. Their tactic is known and obvious and repeated.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Soros or the FBI funded both sides to stir up an incident so the authorities had an excuse to crack down and take away rights.
More anti-violence violence from the racist anti-racists.
Very nice.
“...Betcha all of those right wingers were citizens, had real jobs and do not live with their parents....”
Yeah, I was trying to find a definition for a “right wing extremist”...and I figure they are what you said plus they are law-abiders, freedom lovers, anti-fascists, and are not Obama voters. There....fixed it.

Did the counter protestors have a permit to rally?
What. Is it Robert Byrd’s birthday or something?
Wouldn’t the people using knives be the extremists?
Gotta love our lying corrupt media.
Since when is a “Workers Party” Right Wing?
Since when is a Workers Party Right Wing?-
National Socialist Party ? ie Fascist
Well then I guess gun control does work in CA where knives now have to be used.
