In America, everyone has the right to peaceful assembly, even those with messages of hate. By showing up at their rallies to protest them, the are getting more publicity — which they love — and there is more chance of confrontation and violence.
Instead, counter-protesters should gather somewhere else. Make it positive, such as a multi-cultural event.
Spread the word on social media, ignore the haters, don’t resort to any kind of violence, either in speech or property destruction. Spread positive messages instead.
Our children are watching. Teach peace.
