Is anyone here making the claim that violence from the left wing counter proteters is justified?
I think we all agree that Nazis and the KKK are bad. That doesn't explicitly answer the main question posed by the thread. If someone is making the claim that the evilness of the Straight Pride marchers jistifies a violent response, you should say this directly.
This is from the statement from the Boston Police.
Quote:As we saw along the parade route, there were many who chose to voice their objections to those who chose to participate in the Straight Pride Parade. While most expressed those objections peacefully, not everybody did. And nobody can attest to that fact more so than my officers who found themselves on the receiving end of an unending stream of verbal taunts, jeers, profanities, obscenities and physical assaults directed towards them throughout the course of the day.
