Minute Men Stray away from peaceful protest in fremont today, video!

I've been going to these demonstrations in Fremont at the corner of Mowry ave. & Fremont Boulevard in Fremnt from 4:30pm-6:30pm every other Friday night. It's a mile from fom Fremnt BART. You can walk or there sia short bus ride.
I didn't attend last night's because of soem personal business.
I hope that with the Minute-Klan getting violent that the numbers foanti-minutemen pro-immgrant demontrators will go up extensively. We got to shut down those violent vigilantes.

Man I was there and I gotta say, our side really provoked the whole altercation. Some of our fellow activists kept using confrontational tactics like screaming into the minuteclan's people's ears with bullhorns and stuff like that! That is basically an act of violence on our part, I think, and those guys who were provoking the minuteclan got what they deserved.

Sorry if you disagree with me, I just believe in peaceful protests, and I think we are setting a bad example when we do shit like this. we gotta stay on our side of the street and they on theirs. I hate the minuteclan as much as anyone else, but we gotta think of the safety of the public and our members, too.

Look at this interview with their leader on CNN. Those guys are really delusional about their position. They think that they are about to be killed about counterprotesters or are persecuted like black people in the south

I happened to be at the rally your video shows. It is unfortunate that you choose to omit what preceded the pushing incident. I had just gotten off of the bus and was walking home on the sidewalk when the incident occured. I witnessed the entire incident from before what you show. The man in the blue shirt was basically defending himself from the acts of several of the people who surrounded him and who looked to be going to attack another the man in the blue shirt and another man. Please don't disrespect our legitimate rightt for immigration. You do more harm by lying about this kind of situation than you are being helpful. How can you be believed when there were other witnesses besides me?

Man, I just re read what you say about the Friday protests. You are either on drugs or are lying about your group being peaceful. Who do you think you are kidding. You people are out there for the whole world to see screaming and carrying on with you freaking bullshorns and getting into people's faces trying to provoke violence by YOUR violence and crappy atitudes. You ain't fooling anyone with your bullshit lies about being nonviolent. Again I say you are not only hurting the cause by your video, but you are also damaging our cause by your lying. Grow up! If you believe in something you don't have to use these kind of tactics especially when lots of people can prove you wrong! What the hell? Whose side are you on anyway?

We had every right to be there on that corner and from what I saw the racist minutemen were the one's who were physically hostile towards us yet the police were working with them. I hope people don't seriously think that we were a threat to the safety of the public, the threat was the thugs working with the Fremont police. When I first showed up there a woman was walking around grabbing signs and breaking them while getting in people's faces, and people have the nerve to say we got what we deserved? This is why peaceful protests DON'T work, anytime the police or racists can prevent you from speaking or expressing yourselves they will force you to shut up. I'm not advocating extreme direct action like property damage and engaging the police unless the people far outnumber the police but with actions like this I refuse to let the possibility of looking "too angry" or threats from people stop me from confronting these people. What they want to do this country and to immigrants is wrong and everybody should be taking a stand against the minutemen and those who support them.

link to video broken.
fix please?

Dude, you are delusional! You wanted confrontation...what in the hell else is that black fist for? You have totally discredited your movement with your lies. You won't fight the police unless you out number them? Man you are one brave hypocrite who disavows violence with one breath and then talks about fighting the police. Pardon me but talking out your ass like you do almost smells as bad as your lying breath!

I'm sorry but I wasn't talking for the ISO, you gave your opinions on peaceful marches and protests and I gave mine. You sound as though have an agenda, are you with the minutemen? There was no violence from the counter-protesters, if there was a lot of us would have been arrested. Quit making up stories to hype up this fear of excersizing our right to organize and freely express our opposition. I've even heard people say because some of us are wearing masks over our faces that we are provoking violence. For me, it is my protection. I live in the same city as those clowns and the first time I confronted them they took all the pictures and video of me I thought they needed so, tired of the unwanted closeups, I've chosen to wear my mask. I never touched anybody and I didn't see anyone from ISO or the counter-protesters lay a single finger on anyone so I don't see how we turned violent all of the sudden.

Quoting an U.S. ex-president and major bloviator........."it all depends on what the definition of "is" is! *lol* "I did not have sex with that woman" This may help to but things into prespective for those of you who don't quite understand what the meaning of violence is.

As someone who is 100% against the prison industrial complex, files should be brought against this man. He should be incarcerated. Very clear evidence! Throw away the key. No tolerance for Minutemen!!!

i think your video only shows part of the confrontation too bad im foreign born and am here legaly
why is it such a problem to follow the rules and laws of this land you make all immigrants look bad accept the customs of this land doesnt mean you have to give up yours but learn the language and melt with the rest of us

Spider web tattoo: Racist skinhead "badge of honor," often worn on the elbow, indicating wearer has committed murder for the racist skinhead movement.

The SPLC, is nothing more that two or three guys, in Alabama, giving a "baseless opinion" not a fact. Spider web tattoo on the elbow is only a 2 percent indicator of a racist. The elbow skin is stretchy and the spiderweb fits nicely. Look for secondary indicators before you foolishly label/libel someone.

spider web tattoo is bunk,every one with it is a wannabee.
