The Patriot Front March, a planned gathering of White supremacists mostly from Texas, tried to march on the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania over the July 4th weekend.
But ultimately they found they were out-matched in the city of brotherly love.
Now-viral footage shows several instances of marchers wearing white hoods being chased away by the people of Philadelphia—whose patience for the continued nonsense the Patriot Front represents has clearly run out.

The White supremacist marchers numbered around 200.
They went through the streets chanting about a "stolen election" and "reclaiming America."
But they were no match for the people of Philly, who came out in crowds to chase them away from their city.
Nothing like taking your kids to Philadelphia for the 4th & running into literal Nazis. These scumbags belong to the group Patriot Front. That may or may not be my kids & I joining a growing crowd yelling at the spineless dickholes & chasing them away from City Hall. #fucknazispic.twitter.com/bqYviUq1Bd— Not Today (@Not Today) 1625371981
A Texas white supremacist hate group, Patriot Front, failed to do their due diligence and look up Philly, before they decided to march in the city. Their march in didn't go as the group hoped when they had to flee angry counter-protesters. They ran like the cowards that they are.— George#VotesBlueAlways (@George#VotesBlueAlways) 1625560563

"They literally ran away from the people of Philadelphia," Michael Crum, a Philly police officer, told a local news outlet.
The Patriot Front group is defined by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group, and by the Anti-Defamation League as "a White supremacist group whose members maintain their ancestors conquered America and bequeathed it to them."
Mayor Jim Kenney said he was "appalled" the group chose to target Philadelphia.
Patriot Front is a group that openly advocates for white supremacy. While we respect everyone's right to exercise free speech, our administration stands against everything these groups represent.https://6abc.com/patriot-front-philadelphia-protest-white-supremacist/10858983/\u00a0\u2026— Jim #VaxUpPhilly Kenney (@Jim #VaxUpPhilly Kenney) 1625422017
Appalled these groups chose Philly as the place to demonstrate their open hatred. Racism, intolerance, and hate have no place here. We're monitoring the situation. @PhillyPolice and other public safety agencies are coordinating to ensure a safe 4th of July in Philadelphia.— Jim #VaxUpPhilly Kenney (@Jim #VaxUpPhilly Kenney) 1625422018

While we were enjoying our 4th of July weekend celebrations, MASKED white supremacists marched through downtown Philadelphia. \n\nWhen the heat from the onlookers got too much, they ran away. \n\nNOTHING BUT COWARDSpic.twitter.com/N2bvSe38Xb— Christopher \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 Proud Dem (@Christopher \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8 Proud Dem) 1625575382
The Patriot Front group was formed following the 2017 Charlottesville, Virginia "Unite The Right" rally where a radicalized White supremacist plowed their car into a crowd of counter-protesters killing Heather Heyer.
The Philadelphia police did not make any arrests of the White supremacist group or those who drove them out of town.
