    This was one of the parts in the article I found disturbing. :(

    "Gibson has also appeared on InfoWars, the notorious far-right conspiracy website, telling host Alex Jones that Patriot Prayer and Proud Boy members will disguise themselves as anti-fascist demonstrators at Saturday’s rally, donning masks to infiltrate their ranks. He later suggested in a Facebook video that this would be part of a ploy to attack the anti-fascists. "

    Falling down,...not staying down

    If it gets violent, unfortunately what you’ll see is a lot of trump supporters falling on the side of a white supremacist group because they’re fighting ‘antifa’. Which apparently is a terrorist group and poses a threat to our country.

    I remember the riots downtown when I lived in Portland after he won the election. It was a complete shitshow and was hard to stomach. I hope that calmer heads prevail. This life is far too short to waste it on hating someone over race, sexual orientation, etc...

    Ugh. 
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    "Earlier this week, Gibson announced he was moving the location of the rally to Tom McCall Waterfront Park, where local ordinances will allow demonstrators to legally carry firearms."

    I would strongly consider not going for two reasons.  1) because guns will be involved and someone is likely to be shot and 2) because if nobody went but a bunch of right wing nut jobs, they would only be preaching their bullshit to themselves.  If no one went and the media stayed away, the cockroaches would scurry back into the dark in a hurry and sit there and fume in their grease pits.  Is going to an event like this sort of like feeding trolls? I think so.   I could be wrong on this one, but that's my thought.

    No, no, no.  The whole point of this is to start a fight and then walk away saying, "look how violent the left is!!"

    Counter protesting this toothless parade of losers who are making fools of themselves in the most liberal location possible is not standing up to stupid, IT'S BEING STUPID!!!

    Exactly!  There have to be better ways to counter this bullshit... like, just be better people.  This is a great opportunity for the left to say, "No thanks, not gonna be a part of this nonsense," and let the racist hate mongering far right make asses of themselves by themselves.

    I agree with the 'ignore' strategy. These idiots don't think like a normal human being thinks and are apt to do something idiotic (fueled by the negative energy the mob will conjure).

    Let them walk around like morons- just keep the cameras on them.

    Why do they all look inbred?

    Damn, I feel bad for the non-eccentric people of Portland.  I’m sure they love their city tax dollars going towards paying people overtime to clean up after the clashes of a bunch of losers!

    Yeah, actually went to the world’s biggest free barbecue today and everyone there got along great.  And there are plenty of different people with different opinions there...and it was in TX.
