Well, Bill, I think you have things confused here. If the group were
interested in depriving them of their right to freedom of speech, then
they might has said something like: we'll shoot anyone who wears a
white sheet, phyically block the march, violently attack them, etc...

What they are planning on doing, it counter-demonstrate, i.e. exercise
their rights to freedom of speech as well. Perhaps you'll decide to
join the two groups and witness the exercising of rights in person.
