They retain the right to speak freely.  In fact, I encourage it.  The more they talk and fly their communist flags the more normies get red pilled.

So what is our slant on this? I am perfectly willing to let them have their say. If you think about it, the Antifa riot was on our ground because the scheduled event was ours. The ensuing riot, though it went center stage, was secondary to our event. If we directly engage them at their event then we become the aggressors and are are more easily prosecutable.

You prove my point for me. If a resistance force can be so universally recognized as being repugnant for trying to preserve its own people on its own land against an interloping invader then we can surely be painted with the same brush.

For example: the skinheads on our side of the line will seriously project poorly for us when presented by the media. Though they may align with us on the slightest sliver of logic, they are more fully politically aligned with Antifa. Our entire cause can easily wind up being branded as merely racist in nature (the broad brush is already heavy at work). The fact that Antifa is homegrown and that the skinheads have a foreign (German) slant puts us in a far more tenuous position than the Irish.

Watch carefully for the skinheads. I fear that we have two separate bands of socialists battling each other for dominion over us. They are not our brothers.

TO sum up.  You first and foremost needs ranks of those who will stand shoulder to shoulder and hold the ground required for the speaker to be safe and to be heard.

You will need 2-3 teams of door kickers of about 6 guys each willing to punch through and snatch any antifa fucks with weapons and/or key leaders and have the ability to drag them back into the lines.  This will require coordination and running passwords.  It is essential that atifags learn that bring a weapon means bringing a world of hurt onto yourself.  Professor U lock should fear for his very existence.

Finally, if enough are there, you need guys willing to chase down and snatch flags/bandannas/gauges after the antifags break and run.  While your hoplites can do this you run the risk of the phalanx breaking down and being subjected to antifag peltasts.  

At all times take every opportunity to demask, record and doxx all antifags.

Use of gloves in MMA was started by fighters who wanted to punch. The boxer in UFC 1 wore one glove. By about UFC 5 grappling gloves were being brought in by some fighters.

The glove protects the hand. I believe it reduces the surface damage the person on the other end receives, but not the aspect of the blow that produces a knock out. You spin the head with a jaw strike just the same. But you are less likely to knock out a tooth. Of course this is with respect to ring/cage gloves, you could devise gloves that increase the surface damage on the opponent.

I hope we are not teaching people to fight with closed fists. A well struck jab with the palm delivers a potent blow of energy from the Radius and the Ulna with very little energy lost to the padding of the palm - all without the risk of broken fingers, broken Metacarpals and broken wrists. "Fistfighting" is OK for mano-a-mano fighting. Many of these are likely to be protracted engagements and you will not want to be fighting the bulk of the time with a broken hand.

I find it interesting that here on a firearms related site that we are going so down to the base core on account of prosecutorial bias. This level of pragmatism must be maintained. I salute the OP for keeping this thread on the rails. The Joe Biden "Shoot them through the door" approach will only land all of us in prison.

hockey gloves I would argue present bad optics.  Simply wearing leather gloves are more effective, allow more dexterity for the hands, protect the hands much better when taped.  Hockey gloves are designed to let you grip a hockey stick and protect your hands.  If you want to be grabbig stuff (like bandannas) hockey gloves aren't going to work well.

I say you have to assume you will be punching people.  Having broken my hand punching things I shouldn't, I like a nice tape job.  plus its berkley.  who the fuck has hockey gloves.  I guess amazon.  We should brawl and see how they work out.

Catcher equipment with the knee/shin guards, chest protector and hockey pants would be good front line armor.    

Being hoplites was always expensive and reserved for the citizens who could afford the armor.

i thought of it the other way around, for exactly the reason you stated.

Do we go full traditional with tree sap and glass dust?

I, personally, do not like the lack of grip associated with such an arrangement nor the time required to doff. There are far fewer rules in these engagements than there are in the ring and I would want to keep full use of my grip... but, for some, I think this is a good option.

Cheap, maintains movement, can be worn under a hoodie and pants to conceal. I'd also add an athletic cup and some good steel toes and eye protection.

I actually think the use of sporting good equipment makes good sense from a PR standpoint.  Grown men in sports gear may look a little goofy, but it portrays "Normal guy, just grabbed what he could."  It's not a uniform, which the Antifa getup definitely is.

Lacrosse gear is pretty good for upper body - it's made assuming the wearer is going to be hit by sticks every so often.

They used other "explosives" as well but only twice from what I remember. The free speech rally side used no projectiles, although I did see "Rick Flair" or whatever his nic name is toss a rock back at the antifa on the Berkeley school side of the park.

I was fine, I started ignoring the M-80s after about the 2nd or 3rd one, even if they landed near me. I had no injuries of any kind that day. To be fair, I never "went on the front line" other than to snap pictures and besides walking inside the antifa line about 2 or 3 times and snapping a couple quick photos which I posted here in GD. I mostly positioned myself between the free speech rally speakers and 'the front line' that everyone has seen on Youtube or the news with the garbage can tug of war, etc.

This next event I think I'll be more aggressive about photographing for Meme/intel/etc. rather than waiting for some big never before seen event to unfold or just documenting the damage done to the city (which is what I did when Milo came to Berkeley)
