16. Here's the link/updated story from KCRA: 7 people injured during protest clash at State Capitol

Officials: 2 people suffered life-threatening stab injuries

Two people suffered life-threatening injuries from stabbing and were taken to either UC Davis Medical Center or Kaiser Permanente South Sacramento, officials said. At least five other people were stabbed but the extent of their injuries are unknown.

Protesters have cleared from the Capitol, officials said.

The Traditionalist Workers Party had a scheduled protest at noon when a group of counter-protesters showed up to demonstrate against them.

A large fight broke out where people carrying sticks rushed into the area of the rally, according to Sacramento Fire Department spokesperson Chris Harvey

7. I get your point, but at least police didn't shoot guns, stab people or beat the hell out of them.

Pepper spray ain't cool either, but at least people walk away after it dissipates.

6. Donald Trump's candidacy is emboldening the forces of reaction. Be vigilant...

My favorite knife story... When I was a teenager I was at a party and this cretin worked his way into the attic where the air condition duct work was... This asshole went up there and watched the girls use the bathroom. One heard him and started to cry. My buddy Ralph, who was on leave from the Army, called him out. They got in a fight and he pulled a knife on him. My buddy kicked it out of his hand. He was lucky my friend didn't stick it up his, errrr ear.

8. MSNBC reported that Sacramento is on lockdown. n/t

[Runningdawg]

9. I just watched several reports on MSNBC

and none of them mentioned anything about a lockdown. Got a source?

[Rhiannon12866]

10. No, I was just watching MSNBC which was reporting information from KCRA

They also had banners on the screen which reported the news they were discussing. KCRA is the local NBC affiliate and they were on the scene with live footage.

[Runningdawg]

18. I wasn't questioning the event itself

but the report that the city was on "lockdown". That seemed a little dramatic.

[Rhiannon12866]

19. That was the term they used while I was watching

But I checked the local source, KCRA, and posted their report on the story:
