States Canceled, Will Be Held As Online Demonstrations. Pro Trump rallies that were originally being planned for roughly 3. US have been canceled. The rallies, scheduled for September 9th, were being coordinated by ACT For America, a pro Trump and anti Muslim hate group best known for its March Against Sharia back in June. The group said it will instead hold online demonstrations. ACT For America released a statement to Breitbart, Americas number 1 website for adult virgins, claiming that the cancellations were due to the recent violence in America and in Europe. ACT For America, which calls itself the NRA of national security, is now proclaiming Saturday, September 9th an online Day of ACTion. Its not yet clear what the organization has planned, but its probably a safe bet that it will involve plenty of shitty memes. In recent weeks, extremist and radical organizations in the United States and abroad have overrun peaceful events in order to advance their own agendas, and in many cases, violence has been the result, ACT For America told Breitbart in a statement. Apples latest MacBook Pro refresh has its fair share of detractors, and for good reasonchanges like the omission of traditional USB ports, incompatibility with. The statement continued by denouncing Neo Nazis, Antifa, the KKK, and ISIS inspired individuals and groups using President Trumps own strategy of trying to equate those who fight against white supremacy as similar to the terrorists who marched under Nazi banners like those in Charlottesville, Virginia. A neo Nazi terrorist killed 3. Heather Heyer and injured dozens more at the event. The organizer, Jason Kessler, even called Heyers death payback time before deleting his tweet. President Trump infamously said that the neo Nazi demonstration included some fine people. But theres some speculation online that the pro Trump crowd had other motives for canceling the events. Pro Trump demonstrators were vastly outnumbered in Boston over the weekend, making it clear that Americans are ready to stand up against hate and bigotry in large public settings. Roughly 4. 0,0. 00 anti fascist demonstrators rallied in Boston compared to just 1. ACT For America had attempted to rally its followers on Facebook, but the showing was poor to say the least. Judging by a quick perusal of the Facebook events, it seems like the organization has had very little interest from the public, which is perhaps the real reason for the cancellation. As of this morning the RSVP list wasnt looking too promising A rally of fewer than half a dozen people isnt very intimidating, and neo fascists depend on that dynamic to instill fear.
