San Francisco Mobilizes Against White Supremacy.
Pics and video of San Francisco mobilizing against the planned alt-right's Patriot Prayer meeting which was going to be held at Crissy Field in San Francisco.
Joey Gibson who seems to be the facilitator of the so-called Patriot Prayer phenomenon states via video on the Facebook page his meetings are not about white supremacy etc. He says they are about free speech and expressing themselves. He openly states on a video that he is not white.
However the Patriot Prayer movement has attracted white nationalists, or white supremacists and/or nazi types, which has resulted in a lot of violence at his gatherings. The Patriot Prayer has been in many cities throughout the US. Joey Gibson decided to hold one in San Francisco on Saturday August 26th at Crissy Field. They got a permit and was gonna hold it in that park. However due to local politicians scare tactics he said at the last minute they will not hold their event at Crissy Field, but instead will move it to Alamo Square in San Francisco.
Well Alamo Square is a tight knit neighborhood where many gay, lesbian, transgender, and left leaning liberals live. So San Franciscans mobilized and took to the streets. However Joey Gibson ultimately held a press conference in Pacifica, but later they showed up at Crissy Field. They were encountered by angry San Franciscans at Crissy Field.
