These fascist/nazi white nationalist are so emboldened they want a rally in San Francisco

PLEASE CALL THE NUMBERS NEAR THE BOTTOM.

FYI for anyone who thinks it's time for the Racists and Nazis to grow up and become human:

Nazis and the rest of their modern day ilk are coming to San Francisco on August 26 and are applying for a permit for a "Patriot Prayer" rally at Crissy Field.

Call these National Park Service officials to let them know racism and hate speech shouldn't get a platform in our public parks (especially as Summer of Love permits were denied as "too dangerous &quot .

The events in Virginia this past weekend PROVE that this group is violent and dangerous and is a threat to the peaceful use of the park on the part of others.

CALL THESE NUMBERS! PLEASE.

George Durgerian, Special Events & Beach Fires (415) 561-4302

Melinda Moses, Large Events north of Golden Gate Bridge (415) 561-4301 / cell- 415- 781-9390

Katie Beltrano, Outdoor Ceremonies, Small Picnics (415) 561-4373

i will be making the call and be a counter protester if they get a permit. It will get really ugly.

The rally's organizer, Joey Gibson of the pro-Donald Trump group Patriot Prayer, told a crowd gathered at Westlake Park in downtown Seattle that he was against white supremacy and wanted everyone to have his or her chance at the microphone.

One of Gibson's previous events, a "free speech" rally in Oregon, was attended by Jeremy Christian, the man charged in May with stabbing two people to death aboard a Portland train amid an anti-Muslim outburst.

During that rally, on April 29, Christian was captured in a photograph giving a stiff-arm salute.

holding rallies in liberal cities and college towns. They are looking for a riot. They are looking to start something that will set off a civil war in this country. They want violence and mayhem and they won't stop pushing until they get it. We can't let them intimidate us.

there is definitely a line of division us vs them. They want to intimidate us. All those who used Social media as a tool did a great job, unless they start covering their faces, but they feel this is their right a very fine line between free and hate speech. They are using violence, they want a confrontation and we see our police officials just standing back and letting these people kill innocent people. You know don the con will point the finger at Democrats and Liberals to get his base to cause more trouble.

But please, this time, lock up anyone that comes within a mile of the venue with a shield or weapon.

And enforce laws on the books that make it illegal to conceal identity with masks.

They want to kill more democrats as in Charlottesville.

Any city that grants these nazis a permit better be ready for a full scale riot and bloodshed/killings.

The iconic city of fosters liberal ideals is a ripe target for white supremacists. Will they show up in body armor and brandishing loaded weapons, spraying the crowds with mace?

in these cities and under these circumstances and the cops protect them from the counterdemonstrators. So what's the negative for them? In the areas that they are a majority in the streets, the cops let them go to attack the counterdemonstrators.
