A Washington-based writer and photographer has found viral fame<\/a> after confronting a fascist group demonstrating on the National Mall in the US capital.<\/p>\n Saying he aimed to \u201cget in the heads\u201d of the marchers, Joe Flood added: \u201cNow get out of my town.\u201d<\/p>\n Members of the Patriot Front group wore masks, sunglasses, blue shirts and beige khakis and carried American flags as they staged their event last Saturday.<\/p>\n But the main impact of their protest came from footage that spread online<\/a>, showing Flood perched on a red bike, taunting a group member as he tried to deliver a speech.<\/p>\n Flood said: \u201cShow your faces, losers.\u201d<\/p>\n The speaker said: \u201cI would like to speak of our nation\u2019s great history.\u201d<\/p>\n Flood said: \u201cYou wear Walmart khakis.\u201d<\/p>\n The speaker said: \u201cThere will be no history of America to continue. There will be no America to fight for.\u201d<\/p>\n Flood said: \u201cHi! Hi, fascists! No one likes you. Your mom hates you. Your friends hate you.
