Much of the worry stems from the notion that many in well-armed, suburban, and rural neighborhoods won't hesitate to exercise their Second Amendment rights and elevated anxieties could lead to heavy confrontation.
"Antifa knows this," said the source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. "Local and state authorities have to get a grip on this because if it moves to the suburbs, more people will die."
We’ve been warned of protests tonight in my area, and we have hired off-duty cops to keep them out of our neighborhood. The fear is that BLM and ANTIFA will have embedded with the protestors and things will turn violent.

We're worried about that as well, in my peaceful little town.
And yet, there is no evidence that the Antifa group have killed one person.
Recall, President Trump declared Antifa a domestic terrorist organization, which he legally can't do, and yet ignoring groups like the Klan and Aryan Nation.
Anyway, 'blame Antifa' is the battle cry of the Trump supporters.
I also thought that the Antifa people mainly operated during 'economic' protests?

You guys must live in the wrong towns. In MY town most of the rednecks aren't worried, they are like, "I haven't gotten to shoot my Barrett .50 or AR15 in ages." So, "Bring it!"
Many local authorities know this. They were said to have mingled with the burb protesters last weekend, scouting so to speak. We had burb malls that shut down and I expect that to happen again if need be. I think more restaurants would have opened up as part of phase 3 except they were holding back to see what happens. I'm not too worried about my small city (though it butts up to the metroplex), a duck gets run over and five cop cars arrive. Folks armed to the teeth, not going to put up with it.
