Since the first link didn’t provide a lot of detail on why the violence against Antifa, found a little more there. Still doesn’t really explain well, but sounds like the cops told everyone to disperse and started using crowd control on antifa when they didn’t. Doesn’t really explain if prayer patriots weren’t targeted because they were complying or because they just... well, weren’t targeted.
Either way, doesn’t really sound like any violence on the part of any of the protestors, just cops trying to break things up before it got that way.
I've read sources stating that neither side was complying with law enforcement directives but that the bigots weren't targeted. Definitely some interesting stuff.
