In Praise of Vice News for their coverage...

chests and talked tough.

Then reality hit with being identified online by people who uncloaked their anonymity from images circulated on the internet, with lost jobs and with warrants for their arrests, and then suddenly they weren't so tough.

They sniveled and cried and pleaded what we saw with our own lying eyes was not really who they were and they weresuddenly ready to disavow everything they supposedly stood for.

Big, bad, macho alt-righters.

Hah! Cowards all when not in a group overpowering a single black guy.
