I now find that there was a permitted counter-protest. The mayor / city authorities / VA governor are morons for letting these two groups have events on the same day in close proximity.
check out post 24!
That was the plan.
Whether antifa had a permit or not (and I have read conflicting reports about that), why did the democrat run city and democrat run state not have adequate security? Why did they allow these 2 groups to come in contact with each other? Someone was itching for a fight. The local authorities could have prevented it, but didn’t.
People pay taxes so that local and state government prevent this kind of crap. Yet in this case the local authorities seemed to go out of their way to allow these two diametrically opposed groups to be protesting in the same place at the same time.
Incompetence or on purpose? Pick one.
