It's telling that the DA is opting to stretch to find a charge. <br><br> As of today, antifascists sit in jail, even if they were exercising self-defense. KKK are walking free, even though they were the ones using weapons in their sefl-defence, and stabbed three people. <br><br> The antifascist side will need money to fight this, because, clearly, the city and county, and perhaps even state, may be biased to favor the Klan. <br><br> <a href=\"https:\/\/fundrazr.com\/campaigns\/d16d89\/sh\/95WdO4\">https:\/\/fundrazr.com\/campaigns\/d16d89\/sh\/95WdO4<\/a> <br><br>  <br>  <br> <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","contact":"","link":"https:\/\/fundrazr.com\/campaigns\/d16d89\/sh\/95WdO4","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"text\/plain","summary":"This is the URL to the page where donations are being collected.","numcomment":1,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/","filesize":null,"article_url":"\/news\/2016\/03\/293178.php"},"attachments":[],"comments":[{"id":293197,"heading":"Why You Should Support","article":"Early Saturday afternoon violence erupted at Pearson Park in Anaheim, California as antiracist protesters clashed with members of the Ku Klux Klan.
