After Chicago, Berkley, D.C., and other examples, there is NO EXCUSE for people on our side to go into situations like this with the level of stupidity as these people did if they were running a clean event.
People here need to stop with idea that they can just show up to these things blind. With no support, no pre-rally intelligence, no security, no video surveillance, no emergency procedures, no command center!?
Like it or not, this Norman Rockwell attitude isnt going to cut it.
- Stop relying on those idiot cops. Sorry, but they have no brain or humanity and will take orders to allow their grandmother to get assaulted if someone told them. Use them as a meat wall to gain a few extra minutes, but bring your own security.
Just because you have a permit does not mean these crooked dopes wont scheme against you.
- Monitor the internet! Get people to pose as a leftist and spy on these freaks to know what they are planning and when. Scope out your rally location and learn EVERY way in and out
- Get people with enough cameras to cover the zone with a video net where nothing is going to be left to guessing as to what happened and when.
- People at the rally whose job is to pick out the plants, and kick their ass out. Have people on stage who are charged with making in clear on the PA that they found a plant, and that plant is being order to leave.
-Have an off-site command center to upload photos and videos in an instant. Have people that can tweet, post, and upload anything and everything lightening quick so that any media accomplishes cannot use gaps to fill in their BS narrative.
Either we start being smart about this, or we can lay off the whining about how unfair the press is.
Here’s a better idea: Don’t hold a rally.
There is no way you will win. If a car had gone through the alt-right people, the media would be cheering it. There will never be sympathy for you.
Very good suggestions. Fight fire with fire.
