A registered Democrat and Bernie Sanders supporter has been beaten up by left-wing militants for carrying an American flag at a protest rally.
Paul Welch, a 38-year-old self-described 'slightly progressive leftist' took the flag to the Portland rally earlier this month in a bid to 'take it back' from the conservative movement, according to Oregon Live.
The Oregon man joined hundreds of counter-protesters gathered at City Hall when he was approached by two Antifa activists who demanded he drop the'fascist symbol', ripping it from his hands and leaving him recoiled on the ground with a bloody wound to his head
