and too soft on the other. for antifa, even talking to the cops bradford city football club is bringing communities together. can get you cut off from the group. they're encouraging those from ethnic minorities — people aren't lining up many of whom live near its ground — to co—operate with us. danielle outlaw has been to come to the game. portland's chief of police for less it's why a group of women than two years. from the british—bangadeshi i get the chief outlaw, community have become regulars who's side are you on? at many of the matches. right. what are little black they're part of the bangla bantams supporter group. girls going to think of you for protecting white supremacists? we enforce laws but we focus on behaviours, and regardless of which side it is, we still have an obligation to protect and to facilitate first amendment rights to free speech, regardless we have got as many women together as possible. and just basically get them to enjoy the experience the feeling, of what's being said. unless they experience by going to football games, they won't know what it's like. as someone living nearby, protesters chanting: nazi scum has got to go, hey hey, ho ho! i am always seeing it, we have convinced rob and luis but i have never even imagined i would be going to exercise their freedom of speech into a stadium or anything. with each other. western culture, western culture... they hate each other but they agree to use words, not fists. i just hope they stick to the bargain. when we first went with the ladies, what do you hope might come

out of that meeting? they were praying a lot and saying is anything going to come out of it? we really want bradford to win. nope. i'm trepidatious. and when bradford did when, i think he's going to attack me. the excitement on their faces, rob on the other hand isn't they were actually jumping up and down. the elderly ladies were jumping up and down. sure what to expect. when i first went to bradford city football to watch a match i wasn't sure how people would react, i worry that he's going to say but they were normal. something or i'm going to say all the people who had never been something that'sjust going to trigger the other one and it'sjust going to go to hell, with me, they enjoyed it. you know, he might teach me something, i might teach him something, but i never expect they look forward to another game. to change someone's mind. so i am looking forward so you hope to have a to again today. connection with him? i haven't been since that day. yeah, everybody should do that. we're still humans. asian women, in particular, it's important to get out and get away from the home environment. because usually on a saturday afternoon they would be at home, maybe cooking or looking after the family, the children would be at home. it's important for them to get out and come and watch a match and enjoy food with friends and family we meet in a cannabis club. and whoever they come with. they do agree on at least one thing ifeel proud. — liberalising america's drug laws i stand up straighter and just is a good idea. walking with all the people. i wasn't sure the discussion i am part of bradford was going to happen at all — and i am part of this area. until they both arrived. the first time i went we've hired security, just in case. into it, the huge — rob's cat marley is frisked too.

how big the stadium was, the mood is tense as and all the people around the place i read out the rules. coming in, and all the little number one, no violence. hey luis, would you take off your glasses, dog? i'd feel so much more kids playing first. like i'm interacting with you if i could see your eyes, dogs. just the excitement. excuse me. the way they were doing stuff. i know it's a british game, but we can include all the people and they can enjoy the game. football is for everybody. now on bbc news it's time luis won't address rob directly. for our world — and a special body language says it all. luis, what do you think of rob? programme as part of crossing divides, the bbc season i think he's a bigot, bringing people together i think he's misogynist, in a fragmented world. with political violence i think he's violent towards women, on the rise in america, and i think he's a racist. mike wendling's been to portland, he's obviously ignorant of who i am. oregon to find out whether activists on the right and left can you're not those things? well, let's see. you can't be a racist, find any common ground. and a warning — there are some if you don't subscribe to race. rob, what do you think of luis? scenes of violence and rioting in this programme. i think he's violent on the street. we saw what you did, all right? we — just own up to it. ok, so, luis, respond to that. i'm not the one that's been caught portland, oregon, in america's pacific north—west. since the election of donald trump,

on video camera threatening to punch there's been trouble in the streets. women in the face. chant: usa, usa, usa! i am more qualified than these peaceful guys to know who — the far—right is on the march. what you're about, because i'm see, i get very violent. a violent man, you know, and you're a violent man, i'm, like, one of the more violent, that's how — i see what you do, you see what i do. ijust, from my own eyes, because i don't like to fight and from my experience as a violent person, i know that for very long. they are confronted by home—grown you're a violent person. antifascist groups. someone's gotta stop them. i show them video clips they're not going to march where they're verbally attacking in my streets, not in my town. the other side. you're commie scum. give me a good reason. why has this city become a battleground between the far—right and the leftist antifascist movement? i'm mike wendling, and i've come here to find out. i get, "chief outlaw, whose side are you on?" "what are little black girls going to think of you, for protecting white supremacists?" i also want bring together two

people from opposing sides. you're commie scum, we're going to burn down your bookstore. they know each other from across the barricades. give me a expletive good reason. when they meet again, on neutral ground, will they talk or will they fight? 0k, we have you recorded that you say you're going to burn down our bookstore. oh my god! you're the ones that are burning books... it's a disturbing trend across america — political violence in the streets. new york. you can find me, expletive! so i'm going to ask you the same question, how is that behaviourjustified? that march turned into a personal feud between me and a right—wing journalist, and that in no way is right. so that was a misstep? berkeley, california. a murder in charlottesville, virginia. but the main battleground is a hipster utopia, the city of portland. right—wing groups come it takes a big man to say so. from out of town, a breakthrough? maybe, but it doesn't last. you've seen the text where he's threatened my girlfriend... proclaiming the right to free speech. threatened her with a good time, chant: usa, usa, usa! that's it, i threatened her with a good time.

you've seen the threats. how does this send? as an american, i want to know why extremism is on the rise across my country, and who is invading once peaceful portland and why. proud boys have been told make i have come 4.5 hours south a video renouncing hate and the proud boys, go away, of the city to this town, called ashland. hey, welcome to my town! that's how it ends. rob cantrall is a local chapter leader of one of america's newest far—right groups, the proud boys. how are you doing? make it up here ok? you want me to leave my own town? you want us to just walk off a cliff? how do you see this ending? yeah, yeah, how about you? badly. so no meeting of minds, right now he is living in his car, but at least it all went off along with all the staff, without a fight, and marley his favourite companion, marley, the cat had a good time. and marley's litter box. rob is divorced, with hammering. luis is back with his a daughter and grandson. fellow antifascists. he works at a local marijuana farm. they wait for nightfall, before dropping their banner it's humble, it's dirty, it's peaceful and you have not even seen the back yet. although it's illegal on a bridge. portland is a warning about where american politics could lead. one thing is clear — in most places in america,

in oregon, growing cannabis is tolerated and adults these two groups will keep fighting. are perfectly free to smoke it. you kind of get an idea of how many plants we have, about 600. freedom is what rob says he is all about. we are trying to save the way of life, freedom and not let it turn into some oppressive communation or any kind of —ism. hello there. the proud boys is a men's only club. it is going to be another very windy they say they stand day for us on wednesday for traditional values — capitalism, defined gender roles, free speech. with sunshine and showers. they have ten principles. we are still feeling the effects of storm gareth, one of them is abolish prisons. shown clearly on the satellite end the welfare state — no more welfare. picture from earlier and it's around it seems pretty heartless that swirl of cloud where but we can do that by having we are seeing the strongest winds a more lucrative economy beginning to arrive. and taking care of each other the winds probably by the morning a little bit more. won't be as strong as they were early on across northern ireland and western scotland but still 50, we just do not want the government 60mph for the rush—hour and probably to take care of us. the core of strongest winds over but rob's main source the irish sea into north—west of income these days england, into the pennines

is a government for the likes of sheffield disability allowance. and leeds could be 65mph, what are some other principles? further disruption is likely and it laughs. let's see, venerate the housewife. will be windy elsewhere, i'm sorry but, traditionally widely gale—force winds and streams of showers, one in the north—east of scotland, speaking, a woman in the home is the best home. one western scotland over the irish sea into the midlands. for most of the day, the proud boys have been designated a hate group by an anti—extremism southern and eastern england may organisation in america. they deny they are racist or homophobic. they have black members and gay members. well be dry, the winds gradually what makes them extreme easing down a bit through the day and by the end of the afternoon, some cloud and some rain approaching is their violence. northern ireland. one of the tenants is we're never but temperatures should be a bit higher on wednesday, supposed to hit first. despite those strong winds, 11 or 12 degrees. the winds continue to ease down people have said that the proud boys a bit through the evening. we've got the rain coming in from the atlantic, have started violence, that's across many parts of the uk overnight. the main concern is the amount of rain, continuing rain affecting there's been videos. .. they like violence. the cumbrian fells, that's ..there have been people arrested. going to lead to some flooding, temperatures overnight 5—7 degrees. see i get very violent in fights. the main weight of rain is likely i'm, like, one of the more violent to be overnight and early because i don't like to fight in the morning as that weather for very long, system takes the heaviest of the rain away into the near continent and we're left with that cold front moving and i want to get it done. its way southwards. it is going to bring with it patchy rain,

moving down across wales rob and the proud boys are willing into southern england to the day and behind that north—westerly wind, to make the trip into portland still strong to gale—force, again and again. will bring us sunshine and showers, most of the showers in the north proud boys are you excited or what? come on, now. and west of scotland. temperatures will be a bit lower, they march with other 8 or 9 degrees or so, right—wing groups, further south could hit 12 or 13. including patriot prayer. sometimes the rallies result in violence and arrests. one man who marched as one with front moves away with the far—right committed murder. and dives to the south of us, so we get another one returning jeremy christian was extreme in from the atlantic. everything is coming in from the atlantic. and we will see the winds pick up even by their standards. again overnight friday morning in 2017, christian was shouting racial abuse at two muslim women with some more rain around. on a portland train. most of it is going to be across two men tried to intervene. scotland and northern ireland, he stabbed them. some heavy rain over the hills. as the rain then pushes down into england and wales, it tends to peter out more and more. towards the south—east, it's likely to be dry. probably some warmth as well — 11! or 15 degrees. after the rain, we get sunshine when he appeared in court and increasingly wintry he shouted, showers in scotland. "death to the enemies of america, death to antifa". i have come to a quiet working—class neighbourhood, where patriotism is on display. this is the home of one of portland's prominent antifa, short for "antifascist", activists.

hey. hello, luis. how are you doing? hi, how are you doing? nice to see you. yeah, good to see you. welcome, come on in. thanks. on a real bad day, i'm probably an anarchist. on a real good day, a social democrats. luis enrique marquez grew up in this city, his grandparents were immigrants. he is a comedian and writer and he has lost his patience with american politics. i think it's ridiculous that these group of nativists, white nationalists and right—wingers keep coming to my town and keep bringing their hate to my town. the red sauce is good, it's not as spicy as it smells. the antifascists in portland are a broad mix of left—wing types. luis‘s house is an unofficial activists hub. they need to learn that their violence that they're bringing is not going to be unopposed. it's not going to be just taken and absorbed. it's going to send

a hit back to them. these activists say the other side's claim about free speech is a pretence, hiding a fascist agenda. most people in portland are repulsed by the far—right. they have already killed two people. lots of innocent people's lives have been disrupted. someone's gotta stop them. they are not going to march in my streets, not in my town. but many also disagree with the antifascist tactics. antifa are not afraid to fight. that's where he challenges me again to fight, "i suggest you never walk the streets of portland again".

battles on the streets are mirrored on line. and some are deeply personal. luis plays a message from proud boy, rob cantrall. i not done with you. ijust started, dog. why don't you bleep let me know when you're going to be walking the streets of portland, you little bleep... this is their first encounter, at a rally two years ago. so if you bleep threaten me, i'm going to take on one of these guys. rob argued with antifa activist. luis tried to separate them. have a good bleep day. he sent you a picture of you and your partner. since then they have slung insults and threats back and forth on line. you respond to him there. i said, ijust told him i prefer you suicide. luis gives as good as he gets. there are dozen of proud boyd chapters in 37 states, and the uk and canada. their exact numbers are unknown. but there is a sizeable group near portland, in a suburb just over the stateline. rob has travelled up for a proud boy party and we've received a last—minute invitation. hello.

you guys missed out on all the food. welcome. who do you think you are? i'm your daddy. really? they are protecting freedom of speech. to become a member of the brotherhood you have to do the following, first degree, recite a slogan. my name is rob contrall, i'm a western chauvinist who refuses to apologise for creating the modern world. second degree, name breakfast cereals while getting smacked by fellow proud boys. apple jacks, cinnamon toast, coco pops, frostie flakes... also, promise not to masturbate.

and the third degree, brand yourself in solidarity. proud boy. look at that big beautiful, smiling face. loud and proud. rob's fellow proud boys show off some ink. they flash ok signs meant to mock left—wingers. and they wear their uniform of choice — a fred perry polo shirt. most of these men are fourth degree members, but they are a bit cagey about exactly what that entails. i know not everybody on the left is bad. fourth degrees are awarded by getting attacked by an antifascist, fighting or getting arrested. not exactly your average drinking thing club. how many times have you been

arrested at these rallies? altogether, 18 times. all at these rallies that have happened in portland? all in portland? yes. tusitala toese, known by his nickname tiny, is originally from american samoa. this is my weekend right here. he's one of the group's leaders. his proud boy brothers point to him when they deny they're racist. tiny has been arrested for disorderly conduct, harassment and assault. get off! get off now! don't expletive touch me! you ready? yeah. but he claims that the proud boys are simply standing up for free speech, and antifascists are the real root of the problem. they're being selfish. not everybody in portland agrees with them and if they're trying to build a community,

it's a community of mass ninjas that does not follow the law, that does not want a law. accusations of violence go both ways. when they clash, everyone‘s affected. at the protests, a lot of the times, the police will set up a system of barricades to try to keep the protesters separated, or to try to keep it contained to like one area. localjournalist mike bivins covers the right—wing rallies in portland. you know, they mean business. this is where it begins, but it's not where it ends. brawls spill out onto the streets. on october 13, patriot prayer called for a protest in downtown portland. they eventually clashed with some antifascist, left—wi ng protesters, outside of kelly's olympian. yeah, they really started just kind of beating the crap out of each other once the first punch was thrown. the last time, i didn't even know

it was going on until somebody ran in and was choking because they had gotten maced, and then all of a sudden, everyone started choking in the bar and then we went on lockdown. portland's democratic mayor tried to pass a law to clamp down on the marches. constitutionally, we cannot prevent people from coming to our city, but we believed there were some pre—emptive steps we could take, limit the rights to firearms, close certain public facilities, require notification, keep different groups separated a reasonable amount of distance so that they could not directly brawl. the law did not pass the council because the lawmakers were worried about restricting free speech. the marches cannot be stopped

by the city government, and the antifascists say they will not rely on local police. i carry a gun with me at all times and i will say, i really don't like guns, honestly. when i got out of the military, i had gotten rid of every weapon ihad... do you have the gun now? i carry a gun with me at all times and i will say, i really don't like guns, honestly. when i got out of the military, i had gotten rid of every weapon ihad... do you have the gun now? of course. as we're on our way to the barber with luis, i see how easily things can escalate. so this is my neighbourhood. it's a working—class neighbourhood that's starting to be re—gentrified, we see with the mcmansion homes that are going on here to the right... but then luis and his comrades see a man nearby, they think he's watching us, they think he's wearing a hoodie showing the logo of a far—right militia.

expletive you and your 3%er expletive. what? expletive your 3%er shirt. 00:19:06,513 --> 4294966103:13:29,430 your militia's hoodie.
