Why does it seem like we have to raise hell to get authorities to do their jobs when right wingers attack? Meanwhile any protesters from the left are automatically closely monitored, sometimes with unfair arrests.

3 arrested in NYC clashes following speech by leader of far-right Proud Boys group
Associated Press
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.
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.
