Antifa: "Peace through violence."


Sounds like a big part of US foreign policy.

I don't like what you believe, I'm going to come to your house and kick the **** out of you. You're cool with that right?

For those who've studied history, the antifa are like Hitler's brown shirts. They use threats and violence to stifle speech.

And they will continue to do so. I'm firmly convinced that their goal is to keep pushing until the have some Horst Wessel type martyrs to write songs about....

That is the exact point, right? That's what happened in VA. An armed militia left their home states and went to other people's home state (people the militia did not agree with) and killed someone. That's what they did and people aren't cool with it. They did not show up in Boston because of the counter-protesters. What is the issue with that?

You missed the point entirely. Par for the course. Just don't complain when you say or do something someone else doesn't like and you get a beat down for it.

Was it the counter-protestors in Boston that kept the nazis at bay or was it the Boston police that decided they weren't going to have the kind of crap that went down in Charlottesville?

I've been saying this all along. Antifa, and BLM employ both Fascist, and Communist tactics in their attempts to limit freedom in our country, especially limiting, and not allowing free speech. Our own country attempted this under Obama. Remember the "Free Speech Zones" away from the contested area of the Bundy Ranch? Our own government broke the law when they did this.

The Karl Rove playbook on full display here. If you know you're guilty of being a fascist the first thing you do is accuse your opposition of being a fascist. It's pretty transparent and weak.

What might have happened if the antifa in 1920's and 30's Germany would have had more public support? Worth considering.

It's NOT intolerant to be intolerant of intolerance.

What point am I missing? The online in your head point or what's actually happening offline? The only people I see armed and killing are the alt-right. The only people I see coming to do that in my home are the alt-right. They are the one's that will beat me down and for some reason none of you can explain why you don't like the fact that people are counter-protesting them. This is not that complicated.

And for what it's worth I would NEVER in a million years travel to your church, home, town center, place of work, where ever and demand anything of you (providing you're not hurting someone like your kids, etc). I know some would on the left and right, but that's not my way.
