For the most part, the police and military presences today in Washington DC did an admirable job of keeping thing in check. That’s not to say there wasn’t violence and a ton of property damage, because there was. GotNews covered it in detail, and we also showed some of it live earlier today on our inauguration stream. One of the better videos of the damage comes from Cassandra Fairbanks over on Twitter…

The next video shows how that damage happened…

People have also been physically assaulted throughout the day, which Ms. Fairbanks also attests to…

A limo also got a raw deal sometime this afternoon. What did that poor luxury vehicle ever do to you, anarchists?

But one of the bigger stories to come from the afternoon concerns white nationalist leader (I think that’s the designation he prefers) Richard Spencer. He was also reportedly punched as he made his way around town. Given his media exposure as of late, I wouldn’t be surprised if someone actually recognized him…

I imagine we’ll see some more madness before the day is over. Hopefully no one gets killed…unless they need to be. I wouldn’t rule out one of these psychos trying something truly insane.

 

UPDATE: Damn, this was a little nastier than I thought. He took a solid blow. This was the second hit, according to Spencer. The first one was a punch to his left eye. The Periscope is linked below, followed by footage of the second knock.
