This should be good. No way the Muslims are going to stay home. They've conquered Dearbornistan and will resist the infidel. They'll confront the far right nuts and possibly several thousand riders on the way back from Sturgis.

... "These groups that are coming here are coming for one reason, and that's to provoke a reaction and generate attention," Shahin said in the video. "If nobody shows up to react, they have nothing.

"The most powerful thing that this community can do is to refuse to give them an audience." ...

I disagree with Police Chief Shanin's comment.

imo, his suggestion would be the most cowardly thing to do.

The community should attend the City Council meeting and express their views.

Stated differently, if no one besides the ~outside provocateurs~ show up at the City Council meeting, how might the City Council members be able to assess the views of the community they serve?

Even more from the article.

Video posted to social media indicated Lang was approached and struck by several individuals at the gathering as he shouted into a megaphone about "illegal immigrants."

An Iraqi immigrant and two others were charged in connection with reported assaults at the event, with the Iraqi immigrant subsequently arrested and detained by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The agency cited a violation of the terms for legal admission into the U.S. after a second-degree murder conviction in the death of a woman struck by a van. His case had been pending before the Board of Immigration Appeals.

LOL City councils don't care about the community ... what an idiotic statement, the only reason they allow the public to talk is to let the people vent.

Then the City Council will do what it wants.

Have you ever been to a city council meeting? I have, it's a complete waste of time. The decision was made before the meeting.

Conservatives always need a few different groups of people to hate.
