Should the counter protestors have just not gone there?  Maybe.  They had a permit too.+

Pastor of First Congretional Church of Kalamazoo Nathan Dannison thanked Carlos and the residents who are currently live at Arcadia Creek for allowing him to ask the city for a permit to hold today’s counter vigil. Right before we spoke he handed out five pizza’s to residents. pic.twitter.com/AOAVxJ3S0u

Both there will always be a "both sides" argument made if there isn't 100% video proof.

Yeah... The Proud Boys and anybody like them are repugnant. It would probably make my skin crawl if they were parading around my run down town with their stupid ass outfits and maga flags too. I know I didn't like it when the Klan crossed state lines and came to my city last year... But this stuff's been going on my entire life. The difference is before they'd get their lil permit come spout off behind some barricade, and be gone. Now there's this constant need for confrontation. I think the fine people on both sides would be better suited spending time with their kids, and help to build a better society that way... If they don't have kids; that's even better... Go have some fun, and get the ball rolling on that front.
