Dear mayor needs to explain how he let his police disappear and/or let Anti-faaaa get anywhere close to the rally group this past weekend.
Some peaceful people damn near got beat to death because the cops just vanished and let the violence begin. Total wanton and gross disregard for citizens safety.

Time for some victioms to find a good attorney to pierce the immunity veil protecting the cops/city and sue the snot out of all of them.

They are the other side of the coin of the lunatic fringe. Violence is never the answer, neither is thug mentality.

And now being cheered on by a CNN host W. Kamau Bell who appeared at the event last weekend and literally CHEERED ON the crowd to go after those that were beaten and injured and to keep doing it.

I used to watch his show "United Shades of America" as he seemed to be somewhat level headed, that's over now that he's shown he's a bigot bent on violence or supports those that are.

Time for CNN to do what other networks have had to do and that's FIRE Mr. Bell. The question is, will they?

Bell did not cheer on the violent antifa types who attacked people at the rally.

Did you watch the video of his speech? What would YOU call it? Either way he never,ever denounced or spoke negatively about the Anti-Faaa violence nor did he encourage anyone to remain non violent,or did I miss that part...
He DID encourage them to go after the other group.

Beat me to it.

Note I know a number of older 60s style hippie libs. They are NOT fans of Antifa. Big free speech, peace and love types, and they are not fans of the black clad left.

Yes, I watched the very short video. Was there a problem with violence at the time Bell spoke? The limited shots of the crowd certainly did not make it seem like he was speaking to an antifa crowd. I know people who were intending to attend the event in Berkeley, some of whom were actually from Berkeley, they are not antifa nor would they support violent acts.

There have been 5 violent protests in Berkley this year where Black Bloc caused violence and property destruction and there are plenty of images of them found on the internet.
In all 5 instances the police stood back.
