Jason Whitlock: I’m not here to defend the Proud Boys, a multi-racial group. But let’s quit pretending they’re as big a problem as Antifa and BLM.  The entire debate should’ve been about Antifa and BLM and how we shut down the violence and mayhem associated with those two groups. If you go to Antifa.com, it redirects you to Joe Biden’s presidential campaign website. I’m not lying.
