on Democratic campaign office.
Yesterday, Miami GOP Chairman Nelson Diaz told me he never even heard of the Proud Boys, but the hate groups own video proves otherwise.
The Miami-Dade Republican Partys County Chairman led an angry mob of partisans, alongside the local leader of national hate group the Proud Boys, in an attack on a Democratic campaign office this week.
Miami GOP Chairman Nelson Diaz planned the event (image below) and local Congressman Carlos Curbelo publicized the protest heavily, before and after.

Are there some brown-shirts masquerading as US patriots?

(6,831 posts)An angry, violent mob of men pounding on doors, screaming, swearing, hurling vulgar epithets, demanding access to an event that is not about or for them is frightening. This is pack mentality at its most insane.
That police departments are NOT stopping these people and arresting them is deeply disturbing. This kind of shit is going to get out of hand and people are going to get hurt, which is EXACTLY what these people want to happen.

(6,831 posts)But a dangerous mob about to get out of control. Can anyone imagine what would have happened it that door had NOT been dead-bolted from the inside ? I shudder to think of the outcome.
