Philadelphia – At a meeting Sept. 18 called by Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner to oppose the use of federal troops in Philadelphia or other cities, community members stood on an historic church’s steps and kept about five fascists from entering.

Krasner is running for a third term as District Attorney. Part of his re-election campaign is persistent criticism of President Donald Trump’s policies.

At the first of three meetings Krasner called earlier to oppose the use of federal troops in Philadelphia or other cities, a Trump supporter named Frank Scales alongside a few others disrupted Krasner’s remarks with racist, right-wing denunciations.

Coming off as a Charlie Kirk wannabe, Scales announced a protest against Krasner’s 3rd planned meeting, the one scheduled Sep. 18.
