I would be much more concerned about domestic terrorists than foreign terrorists at this point.

Definitely.

I wish I could say I didn't have this thought in the back of my mind every time I go to one, but I'd be lying. Too many events were cancelled because of threats. However, I'd also say that if anything, it gives me even more to reason to go. I refuse to be scared out of participating.

I'm really thankful to my local anti-fascist groups for always being there, on the lookout for incoming dipshits and overall, doing what cops won't do for our safety.

I don't always go, I'll admit, but I try to. Depends on my stress level that day.
