When I click a link and it says in the description "riot" and anywhere in California, my expectations go through the roof.

I had to turn it off, particularly the sound, the music was brutal. I did see a guy get sucker punched and KO'd though. That more than enough for me.
Anyway, it can be both a protest of what the guy stands for and a repudiation of free speech. These idiots, through violence and throwing rocks at cops and lighting fires, got a political speaking event cancelled. It doesn't matter what the content is, that's anti-free speech by definition. It's also just stupid and counterproductive. There is no exemption from free speech for hate speech in the USA. In Canada, different story, though.
But more importantly, this is exactly what a guy like this feeds off of. If not for stuff like this he'd be totally irrelevant. Now he's going to end up doing news shows all week. Why people feel the need to put money in his pocket I do not understand.
