Look at Russia, look at Turkey, look at Ukraine. The United States is headed in the same direction, faux democracies with authoritarian strong man leaders. Weak citizens need strong leaders.
Proof?

If no proof, then you are every bit of a fake than any fake news.

If who shot who? There was a shooting at yiannopoulos's event in Seattle. Rioters attacked a man and the man shot one of the rioters. This allowed him to escape the attack.

Is Yiannopolous a naturalized citizen?

He's English by birth and citizenship, and may be living here on a green card.

I believe, in my reading, I saw he was on a visa.

In footage released by the Undercurrent, O’Keefe-aligned conspirator Alison Maass—who gained fame last August for trying, and failing, to infiltrate Wisconsin Democratic Senator Russ Feingold’s campaign—is captured trying to enlist recruits in the right-wing scheme. She tells an activist her group has “unlimited resources” to pay a rabblerouser willing to create enough chaos to “put a stop to the inauguration...interrupt the parties.” In a video that suggests the pricetag for said acts rises as high as $500,000, Maass explains what would satisfy O’Keefe.

Alison Maass tried to recruit agitators for the Trump inauguration.

Remember ACORN and the Planned Parenthood "stings"? They were setups planned by O'Keefe. They also tried to sting NPR. NPR: O'Keefe 'Inappropriately Edited' Video; Exec's Words Still 'Egregious' : The Two-Way : NPR

There is no proof to support the claim that the people at the Berkeley protest were right wing plants.

They were however, not part of the original protests and arrived after the initial crowd. I doubt they were paid or even right wing, but they were indeed agitators.

Lets not be like the right wing and pretend that there arent bad people on our side.

Restoring the Constitution to its full glory and stripping the federal government of the power it has taken, is not a process to make the people of this nation weak.

The guy that got shot, was the same guy getting violent with and beating on Milo's camera guy, before the event started.
He got violent with the wrong guy outside during the event.
They never found the guy that did the shooting. He just walked off.

Trump/Bannon have no intention ceding power back to the States.
