I agree. Anti-free speech is the antithesis of a main tenent of liberalism.

Why not? Some people words don't work on. They need to get knocked around a bit before it sinks in. Corporal punishment for adults. **** being the better man. Trump already has made all bets off.

When there's a large crowd gathered, all sorts of restrictions are put in place to avert violence. I've been to races and marches where you could only bring a clear bag, or a bag below a certain size. Apparently the Boston police felt swastikas and Hitler salutes could lead to violence. Their city, their rules.

If this were a march of radicalized Muslims chanting "death to America", you guys would still be all for their free speech, right?

I see it like those bikers that come along to protect bullied kids. Are threatening violence against the bullies? It's certainly implied they will get their asses kicked, so best not to proceed forward. This is the same thing. Power in numbers over WN bullies.

No we aren't. They could have had their free speech. We support the Constitution and free speech.
There were 15,000 people who showed up to protest peacefully. Maybe the haters wanted violence but, as it turned out, they didn't get much of anything.

Looks like the free speech people realized they wouldn't get noticed around here.

Yet, how many stood with BLM burning business and robbing others. Has any of this happened, yet look at the outrage..........nothing, but theater to get a rep point.

At least the Boston PD is engaged unlike the PD of Charlottesville.

Violence only occurs when violence occurs.

You never use violence unless it's in self-defense.

Anything else is goose-stepping fascism.
