#1 The religion of the left--continual protest. Stop bytching and do something useful in this life.

#2 Hopefully the FBI has undercover folks with Antifa by now. Hopefully they have other undercover folks taking photos and arresting Antifa that try to attack them for taking photos (thus providing cover for the actual FBI in the Antifa midst).

#4 One of the perps arrested was form my hometown. I had been in contact with him since early July and he was pretty explicit on what he wanted to do. Looks like he went though with it and is now sitting in a Santa Rita jail awaiting arraignment. I'm heading out now to have a talk with the manager of the restaurant that he works at as I'm sure his behavior goes against BJ's policies regarding personal conduct.

#5 Greenwood said "the potential use of force became very problematic" given the thousands of peaceful protesters in the park. Once anarchists arrived, it was clear there would not be dueling protests between left and right so he ordered his officers out of the park and allowed the anarchists to march in.

In other words they did not 'break thru' but where allowed in.

#6 However, the violence in Charlottesville led San Francisco area police and civil leaders to rethink their response to protests.
Issuing spiked clubs to unarmed Antifa thugs? Having the Police put on black hoods and reinforcing the thugs? This does not look good...
