Proud Boys Faced Off With Protesters in Philadelphia Holding Signs Praising Hockey Mascot ‘Gritty’
PHILADELPHIA—Members of the far-right Proud Boys and their allies were vastly outnumbered by protesters at a rally here outside the National Constitution Center on Saturday, the group’s first public appearance since New York police arrested some Proud Boys after a high-profile October brawl.
Roughly two dozen people turned out for the “We the People” rally outside the center which sits hailed grounds that include the Liberty Bell and building where the Declaration of Independence was signed.
Hundreds of protesters opposed the rally from across a police barricade, with chants and musical instruments that drowned out the conservative event.
