Getting assaulted for no good reason is another. Antifa’s behavior is out there for those who choose to look. The mainstream media is carrying the water for them, and claims they are “legitimate protestors”... given that, it's a no win situation.
I would not want you attacked! I do not want any violence from either side, Trump supporters have the right to be there and Antifa has the right to protest peacefully.
I just think not going because Antifa fascists are there is wrong. It was wrong when we gave up freedoms over the 9/11 attacks and it is wrong here. It only serves to embolden Antifa IMO.
Given all that I believe I understand your decision to avoid it, well some of it. I assume you have a life, I have no life so making a stand on principal is a lot easier.
You are very correct that most of the media covers for Antifa, I suspect too many journalists dream at night about being in Antifa.
