WASHINGTON — As D.C. anticipates a planned white nationalist rally to coincide with the August one-year anniversary of the deadly protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, D.C.’s police chief is prepared for what’s to come.
“Our role is to make sure we have a First Amendment event that goes on without any types of violence or destruction of property,” D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham said at a Monday news conference. “We intend to have the entire police department engaged to make sure that we handle this type of thing.”
Jason Kessler, an organizer of last year’s “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville, submitted a request earlier this year to the National Park Service to hold a rally between Aug. 11 and Aug. 12 at Lafayette Square, right in front of the White House.
Kessler’s application got an initial approval last month, but a permit had not been issued yet.
Still, Newsham said the District’s police department is experienced when it comes to potentially volatile rallies.
“We’ve had those types of high-tension assemblies in the District before. We 100 percent are going to make sure that groups remain separate,” Newsham said when asked about what strategies D.C. police might do differently than those employed in Charlottesville.

Yes I'm sure this will go very well like that one time they civically and with no bad repercussions at all decided to show their discontent in that peaceful little hamlet of Charlottesville

[so so]

The entire city wants to kill them except for the DC police... The charges were finally dropped against the last of the 200 people whose only crime was protesting Trumps inauguration

still makes me laugh my ass off that the cunts couldn't be bothered to make their own torches. So they buy tiki torches from Home Depot. So much for going against "Globalism"

I’m pretty sure that’s what they’re counting on. These are the type of people who purposely start shit and then play the victim when something eventually happens to any of them. And whenever something does happen, they use any brief moment of chaos or disorder to quickly retaliate with concealed weapons (eg. stabbing people) while the authorities are preoccupied.

I think sometimes they don't get the retaliation they were expecting, too. They expect immediate action against them so they have an excuse to attack in "self defense" but what ends up happening is they get a form of doxxing and they live in fear because they're no longer being protected by a group of similar people and instead have to deal with it alone.
