Boston Approves Permit for White Supremacist Rally on Saturday: [reverepress.com] Despite strong condemnation from Mayor Marty Walsh, the City of Boston has approved permits for a “Free Speech” rally this weekend destined to attract the same white nationalist elements the “Unite the Right” rally did in Charlottesville, VA.

Event organizers met with Boston Police and city officials to work out a plan, and spokesman John Medlar says his group now has approval, and will be protected by police and physical barriers. According to Medlar, police will be escorting rally participants in and out of the event, and reserve the right to search people.

Medlar also says that the participants will not be allowed to bring weapons, or even flagpoles.
