State Police say some of the protestors who were involved in trouble at Michigan State yesterday during an appearance by a white nationalist were there to cause violence.
Local police say about 2 dozen people were arrested for fights and rock throwing outside of the MSU Ag building. Inside, alt-right figure Richard Spencer spoke to a small crowd.
Lt. Mike Shaw, a spokesman for State Police, says causing trouble gets these groups into the news. Shaw says regular protest groups call in reinforcements if their turnouts are small. And some of them are trained to cause trouble.
