Proud boy is a term used by ranchers for geldings that still think they have their balls!

This is painful for a small town reliant on Labor Day weekend spending.

Disrupting and crashing another city? And having the gall to call it "Stand For Democracy" - while they make it clear they have democracy, and throw a tantrum because Dark Brandon called them out as the fascists they are?
So how many trans people and drag queens got threatened this time? How many innocent people got attacked this time? Or did everyone just run from Port Townsend and hand it over to these Poltroon Brats?
They don't want citizens to "engage" them? Fine. So when the hell are the cops going to engage them and lock their asses up?
