Of course, those anarchists must be stopped.

My large extended family is devoutly religious and very conservative( Think Reagan-Bush) and concentrated in the Bay Area and they dont hide it at all. Im one of the few who are Liberal Dems.

So while Im not going to label this as 'fake news', I will say that this is rooted in misguided hypersensitivity.

Furthermore conservatives, I think youd like much of the 925 area code.
Lol, they don't have to hide. They're a visible minority and also who's going to mess wit dem!
There is truth to this in an area like that mainly for groups. While agree it's the far left and anarchists, there is probably the highest number of those types in the Bay Area than anywhere else. Maybe they need some 'island' protection!?

This is amazing...claims that conservatives have to 'hide' from liberals. I have a number of conservative friends and relatives, they aren't hiding or going to secret meetings. And the OP just had to throw in "fascist dems", why? Who does this constant name calling and general nastiness benefit?

Is sounds fishy that a secretive right group would invite the leftist press to a meeting.

If I was a betting man I'd say this was fake news by the liberal media to induce scorn.

After all, there is no way to track down these righties who are allegedly afraid. Not without your secret decoder ring.

It has some pretty IN YOUR FACE headlines and gets delivered to the house... and NOT in a plane brown wrapper. I can only guess what this was supposed to accomplish.
You got that too??

Many of my "liberal" friends have called me a "white supremacist" cause I voted for Trump. Tho I've NOT slammed their kind for supporting Hillary. Despicable hypocrites.

Sounds odd that a "friend" of yours would call you a white supremacist, are you sure they were your friends?

Wait, what... They have to be secret so they go to the media. Huh? He than says (I paraphrase) that people here won't think of Trump as so scary when the jobs and prosperity comes back. Is he really living in the East Bay? We've been in a boom for years now. WTF is he talking about??? He's talking like he lives in rural Nebraska where the jobs disappeared and most of the people did too.

Also, this is mostly all an urban area but I suspect this is in the 680 corridor - very wealthy and 30+ miles outside SF. I don't think the majority of the people care if you are conservative unless you are in a grocery store screaming at the people of color to go back to where they came from. I would hope that wouldn't be acceptable anywhere in the country.

I do agree with him that the thugs in Berkeley that were violent should be punished and have no right to do what they did. I don't like either extreme. It's only a matter of time before they attack Oakland again.

Geezus. After years of hearing you billy badass conservatives talking big all these years about how tough you are and all the guns you own, you're all revealing yourselves to be nothing but a bunch of big Baby Hueys.

Stiffen up for goodness sakes. Your guy is in charge. Act like it and stop crying.

Trump supporters are both delusional and extremely whiny, unable to accept any responsible for their own situation. They just want a minority or a liberal to blame for their own failure.

The comments on that article are a real treat - nothing like watching the crazies see who can threaten to murder anyone who disagrees with them the hardest.
