Last week, Rasmussen Reports released a poll that revealed 31% of Americans think a U.S. civil war is likely soon. 59% of all voters are concerned that “those opposed to President Trump’s policies will resort to violence.”

 

On Saturday, June 30, a group called Patriot Prayer held a free-speech rally and march after applying for and receiving the necessary permits from the city of Portland. Several hundred supporters of Patriot Prayer showed up. Several hundred members of Antifa also showed up.

 

Once the Patriot Prayer group began the march, they were attacked by Antifa in the typical all-black outfits the group prefers. From the video below, it looks like Antifa started the fight, but didn’t finish it — something that would disappoint old-school dads and grandpas across the country. And, as we’ve seen in far too many of these clashes, the police mostly stood to the side.
