Matthew Heimbach, chairman of the Traditionalist Worker Party and Parrot’s son-in-law, confirmed to CNN that two “comrades” were among the injured. (Jenny Starrs/The Washington Post)Bloody skirmishes broke out near California’s capitol building in Sacramento on Sunday as self-described “anti-fascists” attempted to break up a white nationalist rally. Chases, stabbings and beatings broke out as more than 400 counter-protesters opposed a rally organized by the Traditionalist Worker Party and its local affiliate, the Golden State Skinheads, at the California state Capitol in Sacramento. Ten people were injured, including two who were stabbed and critically injured, according to CNN. No matter the message, Somers told the Sacramento Bee, it was the skinheads’ First Amendment right to demonstrate.
