Proud Boys Armed With Bats Clash With Counter-Demonstrators Outside Planned Parenthood [View all]
Police in Oregon made two arrests earlier this week after a protest outside an abortion clinic turned violent.
Officers said a group of around 20 people dressed in Proud Boys attire and carrying sidearms, paintball guns, bats and body armor clashed with a group of counter-protesters also holding bats and paintball guns outside a branch of Planned Parenthood in the city of Salem.
A "scuffle" broke out and police said "chemical irritants" were sprayed by both groups at each other and the officers.
The Proud Boys is a far-right organization known for violent confrontations with antifa, especially on the streets of Portland, Oregon. The group gained notoriety in September 2020 after Trump failed to condemn them and instead told them to "stand back and stand by" during a televised presidential debate.
