Have they sent out a presence to monitor the crowd? Are there state troopers posted there?

I'm done fetching rocks on this. You folks just keep asking for more and don't really believe what gets posted.


I believe what you've posted. You just haven't posted anything that supports your argument that there's an ongoing problem that requires either the military or state troopers to be regularly posted there. The June 15th event devolved into violence, and no one disagrees with that - so your posts about that don't really support your claim. And we believe that there have been sporadic incidents after that - for which people are duly arrested, which is what's supposed to happen. Again, it doesn't really support your claim that there's something going on that's so violent that it requires permanent state trooper (much less military) presence.

This isn't "fetching rocks." If you want to make a claim, you should be able to support it. I'm not asking you to prove uncontested facts - go out and find me a link that says the sky is blue. You're making the claim that the level of ongoing violence is sufficiently high that it would warrant a permanent posting of state troopers there - even though the place is crawling with federal law enforcement already.

Yeah, Antifa folks are known for being polite, respectful and never breaking any laws!

Again, it's not a binary. You keep falling back to this - when someone asks you to support the claim that "X is a major problem," instead of actually supporting it you pretend that they're arguing that "X has zero problems ever ever never!" We're not. We're just asking you to actually show that this is a significant enough problem to justify the unusually high level of law enforcement resources you're claiming it warrants.
