VIDEO: Chaos erupts at Boston's 'Straight Pride' parade as marchers, counter-protesters clash

The 'tolerant' left strikes again

BlazeTV correspondent and host of "Slightly Offens*ve", Elijah Schaffer headed to Boston, Massachusetts, over Labor Day weekend to brave the crowds of black-clad counter-protesters at a "Straight Pride" rally and parade.

Marchers were outnumbered by thousands of counter-demonstrators during the controversial event, which was organized by a group called "Super Happy Fun America," and clashes left at least four officers with non-life-threatening injuries and led to dozens of arrests, according to the Boston Globe.

Watch as Elijah goes to the front lines to show you the side of the story the mainstream media isn't talking about.
