I'm just getting caught up but who is promoting the free speech rally and who is opposing said free speech rally?


See that question isnt even valid from the start.

It wasnt a "free speech rally"

Thats what they called it, but we both know thats lipstick on a pig. They distastefully used that title to hide their true intentions.

It was a white supremacist rally.



What tripe.

I have watched all day.

Show some evidence or


I never knew we had so many psychics on ATS. It must be a wonderful ability---to "know" what is happening so that one doesn't have to believe their lying eyes and ears. To "know" that this was a white supremacist rally even though it was advertised as a Free Speech Rally. How do you suppose the supremacists knew to go there?

Oh, I forgot---it must be that dog-whistle thingie the radicals keep chatting about....
I suppose there must be some code or something that only radicals can recognize?

See. This is why I stepped away and will do so again.

We cannot even have discussions about things because too many of you have an agenda to twist anything and everything you can to fit your individual narratives.

Well, not individual narratives. Most of you have the same agenda and spit the same narratives. That is the product of being exposed to very specific propaganda.

One member even turned on Trump because he tweeted something positive for once and said he was bowing to the other side.

The derp in here is astounding.


Well be the change you seek in others

Wait, I thought the supremacists didn't show up and it was a great victory?? So which is it, were they at the rally or not??

I'll take this as you self suppressing your speech. I hope it is not rewritten as posters here suppressing your rights and shutting you down.

So taking the highground by stepping away, but not before tossing in some jabs in before you go and assuming moral supremacy? Cmon buddy, you can patch together a better plan.

Was today a victory for free speech? Did anything happen today that would actually go to shutting back out the white supremacy ideology?

Being honest, this only furthered the divide.

I watched most of the feed today...and the only white supremacist I saw was the black guy who said he supported Trump.

Facebook?


Facebook was too busy banning their accounts all the while leaving ISIS's hate speech and videos up.

Cheering on people who want to intimidate and suppress others' rights is not positive. It condones hatred and intolerance.
The President got it right the first time - "many sides" . I maintain that until that simple truth is realised and accepted, there will be no healing. It will just get worse.

Wasn't me. I wish these things could be hashed out regardless of offended people shutting it down. I guess that's why the mud pit is so popular these days.

The nerve of some people to report T&C infractions to the moderators. And give them a chance to decide if someone's personal insults are worth removing from the thread. I guess they are Nazi's now too?

The rally today was basically over before it started because in one way or another some of the legally permitted speakers were prevented from doing so by the opposing "free speech" advocates.

To them, it seems free speech = free to speak about anything I agree with, or you are a Nazi.

Any violence that took place today came from the Left. Most of it against the police.
Sorry, but that's how it went down.

We all have our own agendas. You included.
This discussion has waged over 1000 posts at this point (50+ pages x 20 posts)

Yet you say we cannot have discussions?

Derp indeed.

The police chief was in the crowd, congratulating the group for their 'win' and proposing the defeat of the day.

Can we all think about that for two seconds?

Pretty standard fare over the last few years, yet the biased media keep playing it down or glorifying it.

That is called diffusing a situation/ crowd.
If the crowd leaned the other way his words would have favored them too.

Oh of that I'm sure and aware of.

The optics however, don't paint a very pretty picture.
