Saturday's action did not seem to be organized by folks that have been involved in RVA #BLM protests. Mostly promoted by a flyer here: (Yup - that's GOP's Todd Gilbert circulating it; apparently he is #Antifa now.)

Police chief said flyer had "tone of intimidation and fear" - meant to incite. Definitely provocative; little concern over where to draw the line of acceptable behavior. "Fuck shit up" can mean lots of things: Noise? Prop damage? Threats? Assault?
