It's real easy to get a lot of people to be involved in a community response, but it'll usually be ineffective because they don't know what they're up against. They know nothing but their own ideological stance and these fantasy pictures that they bill to the opposition. They start reacting to that fantasy and the opposition just runs right over them.
Most of the people who show up with right-wing groups are perfectly all right. They're in the process of getting bamboozled, they're running with some bad company, but they aren't any more misinformed than the rest of the country.
