Those undercover and retired cops got fucked up.

[–]LiquidRitz 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

They spent years being trained to discriminate and profile people. The whole time they were told that they were right and just for doing so.

Some cops wake up. Others, like most people, get really comfortable in their jobs.

KKK is probably watched very closely by law enforcement so it is entirely possible that some of the victims were undercover police officers pretending to be KKK members

at least thats my best guess

I was there. The counter-protesters were ready to go before the KKK arrived. The hispanic punk kid (I see it's the guy in the blue shirt now. He was on the other side of the SUV from me) in the beginning of the video basically initiated the fight, he was then stabbed repeatedly and bled pretty bad. You can briefly see all the blood and the repeated thrusting. I'm the photographer in the white flannel shirt.

I'm surprised nobody was killed, KO'ed, or shot.

Yeah, acting like that, they are basically doing KKK a favour.

Just let them talk all they want. Every sane person looks at them, and knows this guys are a fucking joke. They only way to give them any legitimacy, and to make people listen to their crap, is to do things like in this video. Then people suddenly look at them, and stop seeing racist rednecks, but instead they see a peaceful manifestation being attacked by an agressive minority, and they think "Damn, these minorities are getting so violent, we gotta do something about it. Maybe this KKK guys aren't so full of crap after all".

The workers who spend all their time and energy in the abstract discussion of the Nazi’s “democratic rights”—to say nothing of working themselves into a lather in defense of these “rights”—will end their discussion under a Fascist club in a concentration camp. The workers who delude themselves and waste their time begging the capitalist democrats in office to “act” against the Fascists, will end up in the same place, just as the workers of Italy, Germany, and Austria did.

The workers have more vital concerns. They are and should be interested in defending and expanding their democratic rights. But not in any abstract sense. These rights are the concrete rights of free speech, assembly, press, the right to organize, strike, and picket, without which an independent working class simply cannot exist.

A decaying capitalism—of which Fascism is only a natural product—seeks constantly to restrict and destroy these rights, which are not truly genuine even in “normal” times. These rights can only be defended from the assaults of capitalism and its ugly offspring Fascism, in the same way in which they were acquired: by the tireless, aggressive, unbending, independent struggle of the working class.

The wailing and weeping about the Nazi’s “rights” can safely be left to the prissy liberals and the phony democrats.

The self-preservation of the working class demands that it cut through all abstract chatter and smash the Fascist gangs by decisive and relentless action.

Free speech protects people from censorship by the government. It doesn't mean you can say whatever you want without consequences.

[–]ferrarifan 9ポイント10ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah, this. I don't care if you say that all black people should die, but don't complain when they beat your ass because of it.

[–]andee510 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

Here here. People think free speech means you can say whatever you want. Obviously someone might still fuck you up for being a hateful idiot, as seen by this video.

[–]neobushidaro 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

And while I do enjoy getting the KKK getting their ass whipped remember though that while free speech rights don't protect you from consequences the law does have something to saw about what those consequences are legally allowed to be.

Call the limped dick shit stains and you're fine. Beat them senseless and there's a legal penalty.

So ... Morally I'd say just don't get caught

[–]not-really-an-expert 16ポイント17ポイント  (7子コメント)

I just look at this from the other side. Imagine if a group of black panthers marched in a town and got their asses kicked silly. It's not a group defending anti-racism, it's a group beating up on a minority. It's part of the double standard we have.

No, I'm not saying the KKK should have been there or that their beliefs are fucked up. But if the Black Panthers marched in my town, I'd just avoid that area of town. Why the fuck would I go validate their beliefs? That's just stupid.

[–]Brutal_Ink 5ポイント6ポイント  (5子コメント)

Well the KKK didn't arise in a desperate expression of anger out of being enslaved and oppressed for centuries. I think the KKK going in there is far more inflammatory of an act. Not viewed as coming back to rub it in if it's a bunch of dudes who s grandma was owned by some of your neighbors a few states over, just got concussions from firehoses, dogs sicced on em, lynched, crosses burned on their front lawn etc. you know? Why would normal white people wanna kill a bunch of black panthers? I can see why normal black people would wanna kill some ex cop in the kkk.

from what my roomate said, the kkk had a rally and then some other people had an "anti-kkk" rally. and thats where they started arguing and fighting. about 3-4 news crews out there. Whats funny is that down the street from that. when i got off the freeway, there was a car stopped wtih 7 cop cars behind it all with their guns drawn and a k-9 unit. Love living in Anacrime

EXACTLY! I'm down the street off Lincoln and magnolia and I remember reading on the Facebook that Anaheim PD was warning people about this. I showed it to my GF so she would avoid the area and her response was "I wanna go see if this is real"...sure enough we find out that 3 people were stabbed and it wasn't the kkk...the rascists got their asses whooped and started using the flag poles to stab the anti kkk protesters

The KKK are an organization that hung people from trees and burned churches with children inside.

I don't believe terrorists groups deserve free speech protections. And I don't mind when they get the shit kicked out them.

How is making your friends and family look like a violent minority even a remotely good idea.

Anyone with a brain knows the KKK is a joke. Violence just makes them look legit

[–]BrandanDeMamp 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

They were getting fought by white people too.

The way I think of it is that if I have an opinion, I should keep it to myself. If I publicly announce that opinion that is obviously going to cause a problem with one or more people knowing what consequences COULD happen and if they do happen, I can't be too upset because I'm more than likely just looking for attention.

The way I see it is that the KKK members are just racists fucks that need to "show off" how racist they are to get attention. They love the public spotlight, even if negative.

If I went around yelling I HATE BLACK PEOPLE! in a mostly black area, what do I EXPECT to happen? They just let it go? No.

I'm sorry but I do not feel bad in anyway for what's happened to that racist group. They were racist before and they'll continue to be racist even if it didn't happen.

I defend the right of the kkk to publicly display thier beliefs. I also support beating their asses in the street. The attackers should receive a disturbing the peace charge, but maybe have that dropped in court...

Same here. I support Social Justice warriors speaking about their constant man hate. I also support their faces being kicked in. Seems logical right?

I don't get why a counter protest is even necessary. There are how many of these kkk clowns? 50? 100? No normal person attends these parades / protest except mindless anti-protesters and apparently very little police.

Let them do there charade, they are a joke. And everyone knows it. They have no power, they have no influence. They might as well not exist.

The morons who jumped them are just as stupid as these rednecks. Why even protest? There are thousand other events that need honest protesting than a handful of backwoods goons scared of their own Shadow.

[–]zen_affleck 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I understand the "freedom of speech" argument here.

If I may offer a caveat: Imagine ISIS or another organization that has declared war on American citizens was allowed to just ride down the street in full regalia. These are people who have declared war on you and your family, they make no bones about wanting you dead. They offer no peace, wisdom or understanding, only threat and insult. You know they have taken lives in the past. In the past they rolled through neighborhoods like yours and killed, tortured, raped, and abducted people at will.

You could say, 'sticks and stones, why would I attack someone just for saying mean things to me, I'm above all of that', I'd love to think that of myself as well. But these aren't just mean words, they're threats. Cleverly veiled, but threats nonetheless. My reaction to an insult is completely different than my reaction to a threat, even one that has been coated in safe language.

"It would be a shame if something happened to your family." Just harmless words, right? Remember, the only reason the Klan isn't killing black people with impunity anymore, is because we have advanced as a society and black people's rights are being respected way more than in the past. The Klan hasn't changed, their agenda has shifted. They adopt highways, and give to charities so people look the other way.

Honestly idk if the KKK got "beat up" I mean, a couple guys look like they got separated from the main group and jumped by like 5 guys but other than that there doesn't seem to be much actual fighting.

You should learn about what the KKK is, silly.It's not about disagreeing, my hippie friend.It's about people proud of the fact that their group hurts or kills people because of their skin color or beliefs. If I came across a child rapist/murderer and blessed him with an ass whooping, would it be because I "disagree" with him? Your an idiot.

[–]wayback000 -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

whens the last time the KKK actually went around hate-crime-ing people? 30-40 years ago?

The last I saw they just hole themselves up in their compounds, and be racist with each other.

That hardly justifies violence over words, and the passing out of literature...

I know what the KKK is, I know people in the KKK, I used to live in florida, the KKK exists there, they behave themselves cus they are well aware that the world is against them, and any perceived misbehavior on their part will lead to lawsuits, and vitriol aimed at them.

I feel like you're blinded by feels.
