Here's a female reporter for Infowars (Alex Jones) at the Charlottesville demonstrations, Another view of the police pushing the Alt-right guys out. She details how the Antifa crowd pelts the white nationalists in bags of urine mixed with other stuff. She asks some white nationalists what it is, and they matter-of-factly tell her. They also describe carrying their own riot gear so they can protect themselves if the police don't, and again, it seems like a routine expectation that the police at protest marches won't protect them in city after city, so they have to protect themselves. She was clearly afraid and wanted to leave, but the police wouldn't let her, and she had to walk out into Antifa from the safe area, same as the supremacists.
