I gotta say. I'm remembering the Columbia / UCLA protests, the BLM rallies, and the anti-War marches. And I'm remembering the police response. The police did not appear to side with the "We Want Civil Rights" folks. In fact, quite a few of the police were - themselves - waving the MAGA flags.

It wasn't the "We want to kill black people" group that cancelled. It wasn't the reactionaries that got banned.
