This headline in the Local section of Sunday's Washington Post isn't "Fiery But Mostly Peaceful," but it's pretty bad.

NBD, just quoting an avowed Antifa apologist my colleague @NickFondacaro has written about many times

The Post, worshipping violent mobs throwing things back at police. I wonder how The Post would feel if they were in the shoes of the people they, along with the mob, loathe in law enforcement

And here we have The Post gushing over mob rule and intimidating and scaring innocent people on the streets. Again, this is the reality we're living in and further proof that, with no snark to be found, The Post supports people being harassed if they don't like your views.

The Washington Post: Yay! The mob is now assaulting police! Leaf-blowers to blow tear gas! Lasers to blind them! Fun! Excitement!

See, the gender-neutral Snack Van person is delightful! They don't want "to create violence." They told us so! They offer "food, water, and emotional support!"

We end with a Howard student defending destruction of property because being a "peace activist" isn't cool anymore and "can't wait to go to Portland." Do you have a problem with fires being set and property destroyed? "It's the government's fault" as they've "been radicalized."
