ver that number of locals is, you could get enough of them so they would overwhelm the number of protesters. They would effectively become the police force. In other words the locals if they had enough could just cause the protesters to behave because it would be too much muscle in the general area because force is really the only thing that changes anything in this world.

And here it is. A thousand Proud Boys showed up and supporters and only 500 anti-fascists and the result was no major clashes. Why was there no major clashes? Well I would say it's because the Proud Boys outnumbered the anti-protesters right? And it shows you a model that you know it's dangerous of course because if you send lots of people willing to fight into an area you know you've got some trouble. But let me say that this is not a recommendation or a suggestion from me about how to handle it. Rather I would say it's one of several ways this could end. You know there are several paths you could predict you might go down. But one of the paths is that if the police force decides not to be the primary power in the area and that's what they've decided. The police force has decided that they will play for a tie. The police have decided that they're not going to defeat the protesters. The protesters know they can't defeat the police. They're both playing for a tie. But the Proud Boys were not playing for a tie. And in theory you could bring in enough people who just want the protest to stop that the sheer number of bodies of the non-protesters would make it stop. There would just be too much power put into the area. So that's one way it could happen. It could be that the citizens mobilize in enough numbers that they just overwhelm the protesters and or there are enough people to make sure looting doesn't happen. Because really if you just had enough Kyle Rittenhouses. The problem with Kyle Rittenhouse is there were not enough Kyle Rittenhouses there. If the Kyle Rittenhouses had outnumbered the people who attacked him and some of them ultimately got shot, two of them were killed. If the Kyle Rittenhouses had been the majority instead of the lone ranger trying to help things it would have been different and it probably would have been a lot less violence.

Here's something interesting in election land. ProPublica, that's a publication, Electionland ProPublica, they're reporting that in North Carolina so far this year, I guess we're already counting the absentee ballots, and already there are three times as many ballots from Black citizens that are rejected compared to white. Now what's the first thing you say about that? Oh my God there are discriminating people rejecting ballots becau
