I have zero idea how you got that from my post.

Plenty. Plenty of liberal rallies have gone on without incident without right-wing nutjobs, as well. But, before antifa existed there were plenty of racist rallies that resulted in violence. This just happened to be the largest racist rally in decades. Saying antifa is to blame for any violence in opposition to a racist rally is wrong.

False. I've explained why numerous times. Could the result have been better had the police gained control quicker? Yes. But the racists instigated a lot of the violence, and a lot of it against peaceful counter-protesters, so blaming antifa doesn't jive with what happened. They didn't help the situation, but they aren't to blame for it. The racists proved that by attacking non-violent counter-protesters on Friday night and on Saturday.
