Yes, in the case of ACTUAL Neo-Nazis like this one. But the people that were attacked in Portland this weekend weren't so. Antifa were looking to fight Proud Boys and when PB were somewhere else, they turned on

FYI, the Proud Boys, for those in the UK who might not have heard of them, are a violent neofascist group of street thugs, as

Nonsense. The MO of Proud Boys and Patriot Prayer is to go to antifascist demonstrations, try to pick a fight with protesters, and, if successful at provoking a fight, beat the crap out of them and claim "self-defense."https://www.salon.com/2018/10/16/gavin-mcinnes-and-the-proud-boys-defending-themselves-or-spoiling-for-a-fight/ …

Lol, dailykos, really? The most extreme radical left activist website blames the other side for violence. No agenda and bias there, that's for sure. Why don't you come back with a legitimate news site?
