Richmond Police are reporting that a protest is underway in downtown Richmond

While 8News was not able to determine who organized the march, groups carrying anti-fascist flags chanted anti-Confederate phrases and demanded that the monuments be removed.

I'm glad there are still decent people around who are not going to put up with this idiocy. Get rid of the Nazis and white supremacists once and for all. I saw that many stores in Charlottesville were closed today in protest too.

The city of Boston is preparing for an onslaught of similar types next weekend. I hope they don't think they are going to convert anyone to their evil ways because it's a waste of time. Just hoping there is no more violence.

What about BLM and antifa? Are you ok with them chanting to kill all white people and police? Are you ok with them assaulting people, looting and burning cars? Because the media never mentions it

Peaceful is fine, hopefully they didn't go there to fight. This slugging it out business has got to stop.

I am going to Boston/New England for the first time after next weekend and am a little nervous about safety.

According to OP's link it is Antifa, so not peaceful.

Antifa is basically the Weather Underground and Radical Communist groups of the 70s.

I hope protests are underway soon in Egypt....the pyramids need to come down

You know, glorifying slave labor is atrocious and needs to be stopped in it's tracks.
