NEW YORK Three people were arrested in New York City following violent
clashes after a speech by the founder of a far-right group, and police
said Saturday they were reviewing video of the clashes and could make
additional arrests.
The violence Friday night followed a speech by Gavin McInnes, the founder
of the Proud Boys, at the Metropolitan Republican Club. The male-only
Proud Boys describe themselves as "western chauvinists."
Videos posted on YouTube show clashes between the Proud Boys and groups
that were protesting McInnes' speech.
No serious injuries were reported.
The three arrested face assault charges and are awaiting arraignment
Saturday in Manhattan criminal court. Police spokesman J. Peter Donald
said the department was reviewing video and would make other arrests as
warranted.
Some elected officials expressed outrage over the violence and blamed the
Proud Boys, which has been designated as a hate group by the Southern
Poverty Law Center.
"I am disturbed and disgusted by the videos I've seen of members of the
neo-fascist, white supremacist Proud Boys group engaging in hate-fueled
mob violence on the streets of New York City," said Public Advocate
Letitia James, a Democrat who is running for state attorney general.
City Councilman Rory Lancman, also a Democrat, said video shows police
officers were at the scene of an assault by Proud Boys members but did not
arrest anyone from the group.
"It is revolting to see white supremacists commit a hate crime on the
streets of New York City in full view of the NYPD and for none of them
to be arrested or prosecuted," Lancman said.
The Republican club was vandalized ahead of Friday's speech by McInnes,
who is also a co-founder of Vice Media. Statewide Republican officials
said the damage included smashed windows, a spray-painted door and a
keypad lock covered in glue. A note left at the scene claimed that the
damage was "just the beginning."

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.
Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.
ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.
Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.
Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
