Protecting themselves is a good idea. Did the alt-right complain when freelance security vigilantes showed up at Trump campaign rallies. I doubt it.

Since one of the Deliverance Dolts that Trump considers 'fine people,' responsible for the rally ending Heyer's life, made a statement that he is happy she was murdered, I believe people would have a reason to feel the need for protection from more of those 'fine people.'

Revolting that these 'fine people' consider themselves victims.

"Justin Moore, the Grand Dragon for the Loyal White Knights of the KKK, has now said he is pleased about the fact Ms Heyer was killed...."I'm sorta glad that them people got hit and I'm glad that girl died," Mr Moore said....

This has Obama's face all over it.
Because he is black?

By the way I never blamed Bush for anything. It just so happened he left office with the economy in the s***ter.

you did not comment how you felt about that.. Bent? I think they should pass laws nobody BUT family and invited go to funerals--
I don't know how her dad tolerated it- but in his interview he is from FL- he said forgiveness is his hearts desire- hope he can for HIM-
I'm ashamed of the murderer - and his group-and that they call this country theirs

Oh the drama. Westboro has been doing it for years and biker gangs were the protection.

Do you have a more reliable source than Info Wars? Was it next to a Sandy Hook conspiracy theory article?

Kinda like calling Progressives, Liberal
Umm, that's not what fascism means.

And as previously stated, antifascists are by definition 'against fascism'. There is no alternative definition, no alternative spin and no alternative fact here.
This is not an alternative universe.

Remember Berkeley? They get violent over free speech and other freedoms.

They are the mirror image of the Nazi Skinheads.

You're wrong.

What has changed - and changed dramatically - is the impact of social media and the super organizing tool that it provides to reach the disaffected. Look at how skillfully ISIS has employed the web.

What the alt right is about (not that you don't already know this well, I'm sure) is making the transition from the dark recesses of the internet to boots on the ground.

Unite the Right was a step in that direction.

No........you are wrong.

They have been boots on the ground for years/decades.

They went to the Supreme Court to ensure their right to be boots on the ground.

I'm quite sure they are and have been for some time infiltrated by the FBI or at least watched. There is no evidence that they are growing in number.
