Standoff at Stone Mountain: Right-wing militia and white supremacist groups clash with BLM protesters and Antifa at far-right rally as town - home to the largest monument to the Confederacy - braces for violence

• Pro-Confederate and white supremacist groups gathered near Stone Mountain Park in Georgia on Saturday
• The park - famed for its giant sculpture of Confederate leaders - was closed ahead of the far-right rally after officials feared it would spark violence between rival groups
• The Three Percenters militia had applied to hold the event on park grounds, but were denied a permit
• The rally continued anyway, with participants gathering in downtown Stone Mountain with guns, Confederate and US flags

Well, I've been told there are good people on both sides, so I'm not worried.

It's funny to say you're proud to be a white man, because no one really says you shouldn't be. But why make the declaration?

I had nothing to do with my ethnic background...I was lucky to be born a male in a (still) mostly male dominated society. Not sure where the pride comes in there.

An "All Lives Matter" banner with a gun draped over it. I'm sure the haze of alcohol and hatred makes it hard for the irony to seep through.

Weird how the "All Lives Matter" banner is probably being held up by white supremacists. Like, don't they catch the irony?

let's see now....a bunch of people go out looking for confrontation and fights....and fights break out.

Dog bites man level of surprise (no Sly, that's not a call to action)
