Here’s a screenshot:

By “Anti-Hate Groups,” CNN is referring to the folks who said all cops are racist and beat up a journalist. pic.twitter.com/blgGoWYE4o

These are the same “anti-hate groups” that were chanting “f*ck the police”:

And clashing with the Secret Service, including some egg throwing:

Did CNN ask why so many members of the anti-hate groups were wearing helmets?

Ah! They wore the helmets to protect themselves when they rescued a fellow member stuck in a tree:
