I find it interesting that the media refuses to mention BLM or antifa..they just simply refer to them as "counter protesters"

How can they be called counter protesters when there were no protesters to begin with? It was a rally, not a protest.

And if the media thinks these counter protesters were doing such a noble and honorable job protesting, then why not give credit to BLM and antifa?

BLM? lol... let it go

as for anti facist, there is no group called Antifa. By capitalizing the "A", you are trying to create a false narrative, and in doing so, claiming all protesters exist under one banner.
I'm still trying to figure out why being anti-fascist is a bad thing.

Are we supposed to admire Mussolini, Franco, Hitler even if some dictator-types do?

It is a story that needed to be covered. President Chicken*** made matters worse with his comments. His comments were widely disparaged by many GOP senators. That made it a bigger story. Then some cabinet members and the VP made statements that were much stronger than the presidents. So trump leaves his vacation and comes back to DC and the WH says he will address the issue again today. It's a story that has dragged on thanks to the president himself. He is not only the enemy of democracy, he is also his own worst enemy.

BLM had nothing to do with yesterday's tragedy. Are we back to a not so creative variation of the "But Obama!" deflection again?

Come on, people. Would you attend a White Supremacist Rally,....where there would be the KKK and Nazi Sympathizers--, in attendance... and NOT expect there might be some violence by opposing groups?

Never let a tragedy go to waste. Isn't that the Democrat mantra?

Because antifa uses extremely fascistic words and actions, while supposedly claimimg to be anti fascistic.

I remember a few months ago, a group was holding a "FREEDOM OF SPEECH" rally in a park in CA. Antifa went there to shut them down because they viewed freedom of speech as somehow fascistic. As I recall, many people were injured because antia was throwing bottles with urine and fireworks at people
