KKK members outnumbered by protestors at Dayton, Ohio, rally Saturday
Members of an Indiana Ku Klux Klan group were heavily outnumbered by counter protesters Saturday in Dayton, Ohio.
The planned KKK rally and counter protest led to officials shutting down several city blocks of downtown Dayton, including the Montgomery Courthouse Square. The law enforcement were there to not just keep the HSK and its supporters separated from counter protesters, they were on-hand in case of an eruption of violence, of which there was none, according to reports.
John Bedell, a reporter for WHIO, said the rally cost the city of Dayton $650,000 for contracts, materials and security details. The Enquirer reported that Antifa members showed up, clad in all-black and their faces covered in the 89-degree heat, and that members of the Party for Socialism and Liberation were also there to counter protest, doing its part by chanting through megaphones.
