nice to see that it ended so quickly.

Was there any violence I work 5 minutes away and saw helicopters pass by and heard sirens?

Also checked twitter and it's always hilarious to see people say Alt-left. What fucking morons lol

Is he referring to this particular heel?

Because that would be fucking poetic:
The Iron Heel is a dystopian novel by American writer Jack London, first published in 1908. Generally considered to be "the earliest of the modern Dystopian" fiction, it chronicles the rise of an oligarchic tyranny in the United States.

If you count the negative space as people for the alt-righters, there were so many dozens! Fake news /s

Who is saying alt-left these days? Is it still both sides?

8 people arrested. Apparently some dumbasses decided to throw "urine, bottles and other harmful projectiles" at the police.

It's just dishonest when I say many times to protest on another day or another place to avoid conflict and people quote me or refer to me as if I said "stay at home, let the nazis do their thing".

It's false, it's dishonest.

I don't think you understand how protesting works. The goal IS to combat with opposing voices. Conflict is necessary. Violence =/= Conflict. What you're saying basically means, "Let them protest!" despite your intentions behind it.

People are tired, and this is extremely necessary. So you tryna play the "But violence is bad!" angle is too little too late.

Great rally against hate and ignorance. Not much to shoot but a bunch of Bostonians and visitors from all walks of life coming together to preach against hate and bigotry.

Proud of this city. #BostonStrong

Police commissioner just got done speaking. Looks like three people were arrested with body armor and gun. Some minor injuries. Few arrests for police being assaulted by bottles/urine/debris.

He’s not specifically thanking protestors for protesting white supremacy and nazism. Just generic “hate and bigotry”. He still can’t enunciate what it is people are pushing back against.

This can still be interpreted as a “both sides” comment from the president.
