With heavily armed riot police looking on from behind barricades, anti-fascist demonstrators held signs and chanted Saturday to protest a planned rally by neo-Nazis in Newnan, Ga.
It appeared to be the largest face-off between the groups since clashes at Charlottesville last year that left one person dead.
Members of Antifa, the loose-knit anti-fascist movement, gathered along the sidewalks on streets leading to Greenville Street Park where the rally by the National Socialist Movement was set to begin at mid-afternoon.
At the outset, police arrested several anti-fascist demonstrators, apparently for wearing masks.
One protester held a sign that read, "You can shoot us, you can run over us, but your side always loses."

(67,112 posts)probably recognize them for what they are. Of course, we have no idea what these advanced lifeforms might be. It's going to happened sometime. The universe is vast and IMO it's really a fool's logic to conclude we are the only life form in this vast universe.
