“No To Marxism In America 2” Rally Ends Peacefully In Berkeley

It was another uneventful day in Berkeley.

We’ve seen multiple clashes between the Alt-Lite and Patriot groups and Antifa in Berkeley and “No To Marxism In America 2” was the equivalent of a tropical storm. I don’t think Patriot Prayer and the Proud Boys bothered to show up at Based Tranny’s event this afternoon.

It looked like hundreds of Antifa in Black Bloc formation and perhaps a thousand leftwing protesters mobilized and turned out for #AllOutBayArea to confront the specter of Amber Cummings, an Infowars reporter and a dozen or so MAGApedes who brought their children.

A few kids running around, playing in the park, with American flags. Their parents stand watch. The father says they came because “we love America,” and would leave if violence broke out around them #Berkeleyprotests #AllOutBayArea pic.twitter.com/6VZ5jDQ7is

Kyle Harris, from Vallejo, at Civic Center Park. He says he’s here to show there’s diversity among Trump supporters (“I love the man.”) Says he denounces the explicitly white supremacist groups who’ve come to #Berkeleyprotests. #AllOutBayArea pic.twitter.com/8HYtIOfDDL

My #Berkeley livestream just failed on Facebook, but the situation there has mostly wound down. Right now, little arguments like this are all that remain. pic.twitter.com/Uur3Z3N2OA

At the Say No to Marxism rally in Berkeley. The alt-left are trying to provoke confrontation. #MAGA #BanAntifa https://t.co/18wpEJsSuv

With nothing else to do, Antifa smashed out the windows of some Berkeley city vehicles, attacked the police and started a few fights. The Berkeley Police didn’t stand down and successfully maintained separation between the protesters and the mob of violent Antifa.

Berkeley firefighters at the station across the street said they heard the windows being smashed on 20 city vehicles, then saw one was on fire. They were quick to put it out and damage was mostly limited to the front passenger seat. @KPIXtv pic.twitter.com/P6lVtCFBli

Extended brawl. Police, who’ve been actively separating sides, don’t seem to notice for a while. #Berkeleyprotests #alloutbayarea pic.twitter.com/glPBlfscbM

Here are the names and mugshots of the Antifa dirtbags who were arrested in Berkeley. The Berkeley Police enforced the no mask rule and arrested Antifa who brought weapons:

There were no “fascists” at this event.

The Alt-Right has stopped engaging with these people. They are nothing more than a mob of violent criminals who are looking for an excuse to destroy property, engage in violence and unleash mayhem. It is the responsibility of the Justice Department to put an end to this.
