I for one definitely judge whether or not a protest should be permitted based on how popular its members are after protesting.

So a single rabble-rouser can outweigh the wishes of an entire city? Good to know the Supreme Court is on the side of people in Charlottesville.
Ringo
There's always a problem when you use popularity as a measure of who gets to protest
Sure, because what could possibly go wrong with letting one group of people deprive another group of their constitutional rights?
Of course! Kessler is just like her, isn't he? What a guy, selflessly bringing Nazism back to the US. How could I stand in the way of a worthy cause like that?
Ringo
Oh good! I'll bring my own heavily armed security force to protect my protestors. We may light up the night with nighttime flashlight rallies. If anyone gets in our way, we may run them over in our car. But it's totally fine, correct? It's my right to protest no matter what. At 0300 in the morning on a weekday, we'll have speakers come to denounce Phil 1:21 and his family, but that'll be OK because - after all, we're permitted, right?
Ringo
...the last time they were there, people died...
I don't agree that logic says anything such thing.The last time they were there, Antifa was there, a fact you appear to be adamant to ignore. Violence is Antifa's stock and trade, and logic demands the violence was as much their fault as anyone else's.
Jason Kessler files for Permit to Hold Unite the Right Anniversary Rally
That the Charlottesville council would even consider allowing this smug little squirt to hold another rally in town after what happened this past August is a disgrace. Surely there is a public safety concern that can put the kibosh on this.
Kessler's got a lot of gall to go back to Charlottesville.
Ringo
They're not the ones who ran over people who didn't agree with their white supremacist message.Antifa was there as well. Violence is their stock and trade.

I don't; not in this case.
