Once side ran over people with a car.

Guess we all make our own choices.

Yep.

Sure, except you're calling armed people who came with the express intent of violently breaking up a protest as "protested", which it's not. That's a mob. Creating a mob to attack people isn't a right. Showing up to violently break up a protest is not protesting, regardless of how much people use the BS term "counter-protestors".

Counter-protesting would be done peacefully, presumably from a small distance away so they are visible yet separate. Not arriving preemptively armed and armored for conflict. No matter how shitty those Nazi F's are (and they are). If the roles had been reversed and those Nazi shits showed up to violently break up some lawful protest, I would once again be defending the people who were there lawfully, regardless of who they were.

But you can feel free to continue to be snide and shitty, as if defending the rights of people is wrong, and attacking people to strip them of their rights is right.
