Watch the cops and citizens run antifa/blm out of town. I believe that this was in the town of Berthoud.

Damn, wish I lived in a town like that. These must not have been hardcore Antifa though because the real radicals would have been fighting back. Oh wait, no they wouldn't. They only prey on the weak and those too afraid to stand up to them.

The great thing about small towns is it is easy to get them to turn out, especially to meet the threat of vandalism and chaos. Loved the horses crowding them and the loser yelling at the horsemen to clean up after themselves. Self awareness score? 0, since I have yet to hear of or see these losers cleaning up after themselves. Their mission is the opposite, making a mess for others to clean up.

Beyond epic.

Cops on horses seems to have a great affect in moving crowds.

Brings a happy tear to my eye.

Protesters holding up BLM signs, but not a black person in sight. These are paid protesters shipped in from elsewhere.

So...they're not really being run out of town. They are simply being given free passage back home.

Knowing the state like I do they were probably 'hired' in Denver. At least recruited there. Or Boulder.

This lockdown/partial opening is doing a number on everybody's mental health. I know of no data or studies of it but if you add boredom and isolation to already angry young people it doesn't end well. I believe that it has contributed to the violence.

Some who were there simply to protest saw the anarchists among them breaking things and lighting them on fire with no consequences. The police were outnumbered and being pelted with objects. So then they themselves gave in to the impulse to release all that rage by joining in.It really seems that in many of the vids I've seen of Portland and Seattle most of the violent ones are dressed all in black with backpacks. And most of them are white kids.

Looked like either an Antietam reinactment or a greek phalanx in action.

Too bad that town didn't sit on the edge of a cliff.

Yep. Lemmings.
