I see them as Whiney brats throwing tantrums and attacking/destroying things. But yeah I kinda agree with your point. Personally, id just never be scared or feel threatened by any of these clowns.
Doesn't matter if they cry victim after they hit someone with a brick, the brick does the same damage.

One of these pieces of crap was shot at a protest in Seattle. They were throwing bricks, bottles, shooting paintballs and pepper pellets at the people standing in line at UW. They were pulling people out of line and into their mob and beating them. A Trump supporter defended himself and shot one, critically wounding him.

Its really not a joke. They are going to arm themselves with explosives soon enough and start acting like their Islamic terror buddies.

kind of like how the Palestinians attack Israelis then retreat to elementary schools and you children as shields. its all the same.


its what the left does. they have made an art out of this sort of thing.


Kudos to the police for understanding the game an arresting the bad guy. should have taken the rest in for conspiracy.
Exactly. Did you hear the protestor calling that guy in line every name in the book? He was doing his best to goad him into attacking him.

Agreed, although I believe they deserved worse.

He was back peddling. He only was calling him names when he felt like the cop might protect him. Some anarchist or radical.

Not so much. Ever hear of the Weathermen?

I'm not sure why you are dismissing an organized group who are documented to be violent, beaten innocent people, as well as extensive property damages and now there has been a shooting.

The Weathermen were a group in the 60's-70's that actually seemed like legit to bomb people. These guys don't.

I was in DC when they were being "violent" on Friday. People weren't very scared of them, the only time it got intense was when the police were throwing the smoke bombs. It's a bunch of kids running around acting foolish. Why would I take them seriously? This video proved it on this topic. Others there that day weren't fearful either, in fact, most got in close to record their actions with their phones.

Listen, I grew up in SE DC when it was actually bad in the 90's. If I wasn't inside by dark, I face a high risk of being shot and killed, easily, it used to be murder capital of the nation....this Antifa group doesn't threaten me at all.

Yes, I'm not dismissing the violence (punching people then running away, throwing bricks, setting trash cans on fire), but people don't take them too seriously here. Again, I'm speaking for whatever that was in DC on inauguration day. I don't know how this group operates in other countries/cities, as I can only speak to DC. But you're giving this group who showed up in DC way too much credit.

And shooting? The one in Milo Y-whatever's protest on Friday in Seattle? You realize it wasn't Antifa, but a 50 year old shooting in self-defense, right?

I believe he was saying the person who was shot was a protester who got violent and attacked a Trump supporter.

if ANTIFA is involved the justifiable response should be extreme prejudice
