At first the anti-racists counter protesters surrounded SOS-MM and overwhelmed them 10 to 1. After about an hour the police separated the SOS-MM from the counters and kept SOS-MM behind police lines on one corner of the street. By 1:00 pm it was over and the SOS-MM had all been escorted way by the police. The crowd cheered as the last of the SOS-MM left the site.
A post action wrap up was upbeat and there was a sense of victory that the community had taken a stand against the anti-immigrants and racism. There were no reports of violence or arrests.
