Members of the far-right, including a Proud Boys leader, were reportedly stabbed

during an altercation in Washington, DC

Several conservative activists, including multiple members of the far-right group the Proud Boys, were reportedly stabbed Wednesday in an altercation in the early morning hours in Washington, DC.

Washington, DC, police told Insider that they received a report about the stabbing, which occurred in the 1400 block of New York Avenue, at 2:26 a.m.

According to WJLA, DC police said the stabbing victims were two men and one woman, and all three were taken to a local hospital. While the victims told police the perpetrators were members associated with the Black Lives Matter movement, there was no evidence currently to substantiate those claims, according to the report.

DC police told Insider it could not "verify any specific affiliation of the suspects" and said its investigation was ongoing.

Color me skeptical. Don't the proud boys usually carry guns?

that none were even close to life-threatening. The white supremacists want their race war and they want it ASAP.

Does anyone doubt for a moment that if some BLM folks pulled knives, that the Proud Boys would not have pulled guns? C'mon.

I bet the wounds are all "flesh wounds".

One of them is doing interviews in the hospital.

She claims that three young Black makes approached them to potentially rob them. Honestly, I prefer to wait until police investigate. There should be some type of video in existence.
