As the Proud Boys prep for their Portland, Oregon rally, we talked to researchers about the rise of the far-right group, and what to expect as the 2020 election campaign heats up

, wearing a shirt that said “Roger Stone Did Nothing Wrong.” “As far as their role in the far-right ecosystem, they’re the boots-on-the-ground enforcers,” says Holt., resulting in the arrests of nine Proud Boys supporters and three anti-fascist protesters on riot charges.

Proud Boys march through Manhattan after the event at the Republican Club last October, before they got in a fight with antifa protesters. Photo credit: Mark Peterson/ReduxFBI classified the Proud Boys as an extremist group. “I’m told by my legal team and law enforcement that this gesture could help alleviate their sentencing,” McInnes said in a YouTube video announcing his resignation. “Fine. At the very least, this will show jurors they are not dealing with a gang and there’s no head of operations.” Compared to recent years, [activity has been] light,” says Hankes. “

They have not been as active as they had been in the past year or so.” Part of that may be due to the legal proceedings stemming from the 2018 incident, with two former Proud Boys members, Maxwell Hare and John Kinsman,a former president of the Miami chapter of the Proud Boys — assuming the helm of the group. Compared with McInnes, Tarrio “doesn’t have a huge megaphone or platform,” nor is he as “prone to saying crazy stuff into a camera lens,” says Holt.

That’s not to say, however, that the Proud Boys have been totally underground. In the Pacific Northwest, specifically Portland, a long-standing battle has been raging between anti-fascist protestors and the far right. Kutner has logged more than 20 violent incidents in the city, as opposed to other cities in North America, where the number falls between one and five.

Proud Boys are patriotic Americans that like to wave American flag and drink beer. While Antifa are a violent anti-American group that attack people in the street that don't agree with them... huge difference FakeNewsMedia

Rolling Stone 👉 Trash Real journalism 👇

A huge number of NPCs are in comment section. Try to do the journalism, writing dumb agenda driven opinion piece is not journalism.

Dude’s forearm looks like a loaf of Wonder bread.

Hopefully just getting started exposing the violence of Antifa

I have no doubt this is exactly what will happen. To the extent they will be policing voting booths if things look bad for Trump going in

h2ofizz Proud of what?

Army...

And what about far left?

Done eating? By this picture, I don’t think so.

White National terrorism and our POTUS andnGOP are good with that. Sad sad day for America.

More like the Proud Dorks. Hold a competing Pokémon Club rally at the same time as there’s and they won’t know what to do.

Fat boy with serious self esteem issues.

That make them so much easier to find and arrest. Hopefully all the “boys” will get tats.

Apparently, are time travelers.

fatshit

If I wanted to see moronic views rooted in racism and misogyny, I’d go to the President’s twitter. Stop giving these bigots a platform.

Takes a lot of guts to rally in one of the whitest states in America. Would love to host these boys out here in Palmdale and see how proud they are.

FATBOY

Should say fat boy

Ah, behold the pride and glory of the White Race™.

gosh... he will probably be Dead due to diabetes or a stroke before that

What’s that fat fuck so proud of?

Wow. More like Proud Blob. That dude needs to stop hitting up the buffet line.

I'm not sure if you're implying that the Proud Boys are some kind of fascist or anti-fascist organization. It's not like that's the case in the US when it's not even particularly big in the USA.
