Jason you are being very naive about this.  Yes, the protest which was the conservatives can be approved.  What is stopping the other people which was Antifa from coming.  There is no approval process for them and there is no way to know how many were going to show up and counter protest.  Its as if you are only looking at half the problem and not thinking about the total issue.  Anyone can just show up to these protest and there is no way to totally prepare or being in multiple places at once for already shorthand amount of Police.  

You are correct this isn't the first rodeo and the problem remains the same, not enough police for the area to police.  So what should happen is they deny any protest period and they would not have to worry about the issue at all.

You basically summed it up in the second half of your post. This has happened before and continues to happen. The police should know better and be better prepared for these situations. It's their fault for not being prepared. Denying them their right to protest is illegal and it would just be the cops being lazy.

So how do you become better prepared when you do not have the personnel.  Its very easy to make this statement but I do not hear any solutions coming from you.  How do you police an area you do not have enough people to be in all areas at once.

So its the police fault because they do not have enough people is this the only way you see it.  Needless to say, I am guessing you have absolutely no experience in this area.  How many protest have you been a part of in during your time on this earth.  I have been in a few and I can tell you this.  If you believe that there will always be a cop around to support your right to protest while another side is counter to you exercising your right you will always have someone to blame but it will mean nothing if you are getting stomped into the dirt.
