The police were asked about that. You can still make your own judgement.
However if you know a Pride event is going on and see 30 people all dressed alike, with their faces covered and piling into the back of a U-haul in a hotel parking lot, I might call the cops to check it out also. That does not seem like normal behavior and these days you never know where crazy people are with weapons in addition to very many vocal anti lgbtq groups that are out there.

The article on Fox says they were taken one by one to squad cars and demasked, then packed into a police van or something like that.
The pics with their hands tied were taken when they were first plucked from the U-Haul.
As for the rest of this thread with the antifa comments, don't they call that whataboutism?
Well what about antifa? But antifa gets away with it.
Antifa doesn't get caught before hand, they're already at the event, and the ones that dont get away do get arrested. You're thinking of huge BLM protests where there were thousands of people and all hell breaking loose, not a small group trying to sneak into an event. And if 31 guys in black fatigues and masks were seen piling into a U-Haul and the cops were called, they got pulled over, this same outcome would happen.
They didn't get preferrential treatment because they were antifa. Every situation is different. It almost sounds like people are salty because "their guys" got caught and the "other side" guys didn't.

right, so now ANTIFA can be arrested just for dressing the same and using face coverings. This will be much easier for future use, you know, since the same group won't be in charge forever.

Spare me.
You're describing Antifa for the past 3 years.
DB. Love u buddy. It's not even worth arguing the theoretical implications of this event. The fact that it's a sham overrides any talk of racism or politics ( that's what they want.)
Answer me this..if 31 men are under arrest why in God's name are they allowed to keep their full masks and sunglasses on?
They aren't. Under no law enforcement anywhere are arrested individuals allowed to hide their faces.
Feds. They assume you're stupid.
