‘Anti-racist’ Protesters Claim ‘Victory’ for Cancellation of Japanese-American’s SF Free Speech Rally

‘Anti-racist’ Protesters Claim ‘Victory’ for Cancellation of Japanese-American’s SF Free Speech Rally: “Anti-racists” are claiming “victory” following the cancellation of Saturday’s free speech rally in San Francisco. The rally had been organized by the Oregon-based Patriot Prayer group, led by Japanese-American Joey Gibson.

“Right now, this is victory,” San Francisco Antifa protest organizer Benjamin Sierra told the Associated Press. “They did not have enough gumption to do what they set out to do.”

But Gibson, who has publicly denounced white supremacy, neo-Nazis and all types of racism, said he canceled the rally after deciding the logistics set up by city officials and police would put the people at the rally in danger.
