I wonder, has the fact that BLM and Antifa are terrorist groups become so obvious that they're no longer willing to jump in and defend these little Commie psycho bastards honor anymore??

Best guess. I can't imagine anyone low enough to try to justify attacking a Veteran in a wheelchair.

If CNN decides to cover this, they'll start the video at 1:44 and claim that violent, far-right Trump supporters attack peaceful protesters.

It's only a matter of time before they start calling them right-wing.

Whoever it was that tried to suggest it was staged effectively already did.

Is that where it happened, Montana?

Edit: It was Ft. Collins CO
Ft. Collins? There’d be LEO’s all over the place. My family lives in Longmont/Loveland. I’ll find out if it’s legit.

Edit- bro-in law texted it was a confrontation and both ‘sides’ look equally guilty.

I’ll wait for the full report.

Knowing RWNJ shenanigans I doubt it.

And you're already starting out on this tack with your obvious bias flapping in the wind. So, you go ahead and "find out if it's legit" and get back to us.

The problem with that is that your report cannot be presumed to be legitimate. You are apparently a leftist, after all.

I do wish more people would just wait for the facts to come in.

What we think we know is that BLM/Antifa has once again attacked somebody in a wheelchair. Seems to be a trend for them. The best anyone can piece together, that's what set off the whole brawl. It's good to see whoever was on the megaphone telling folks to keep their weapons holstered and calling it out when Antifa pulls a knife. I'm sure that helped keep things from turning really ugly.

As to whose more guilty than the other? I think that if your state purpose is to show up and try to bully, silence and intimidate people who are exercising their right to peaceably assemble, you're pretty damned evil. If you get your butts kicked for your trouble, you're still the a-holes trying to deprive other people of their Constitutional rights. The people of Fort Collins watches the news. They know that when Antifa comes to town, they're going to smash out windows, spraypaint graffiti on your house, try to permanently blind you with lasers, throw explosives at you, etc. So is it unreasonable for you to run a completely unannounced Antifa group out of town? I'm genuinely curious what you think.

So what you're saying is, "there were good people on both sides?"
