Conservatives refer to Antifa, Blac Bloc and other groups as domestic terrorists. Non-conservatives refer to Proud Boys, III% and other groups as domestic terrorists. Both sides want the government to crack down on the other side's "terrorists."

Regardless of any group affiliations, these people are all Americans, whether they like it, or not.

Do we really want the "war on terror" to be waged against Americans? That's what we're asking for. Think very carefully about what it would mean, and ask yourself if that's really what you want.

Me? I'm looking for alternate solutions now. To a hammer, everything looks like a nail, and the United States government wields a very, very big and heavy hammer. I'd rather not be seen as a nail.
I'm not asking for any crackdown.

I just ask for the laws to be enforced instead of letting some of these groups run about attacking people etc. and not being sought out, not being prosecuted etc.

I don't care about motivations, just if they're breaking the law.

I do feel for people living in Portland. Goodness what a hole.
Not me. I don’t feel sorry for them at all. They vote heavily Democrat. They deserve every bit of this.

A revolution doesn't have to involve half the People. It doesn't have to involve a military coup. All that a revolution is, is a transfer of political power from one person or group to another, and THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING.

People with a world view that's antithetical to the fundamental principles of freedom and equality that this country was founded on have taken control of most institutions in this country and are in the process of completing the subversion with their takeover of the government. Education, media and big business have already been fully subverted. Government/military is the last step.

It doesn't matter where you stand on the political spectrum. If you believe in the core ideas this country was founded upon, you need to be fighting this. These people aren't on your side, about anything, and if they complete their takeover of government, which honestly is pretty likely, we're f'd. And I mean that in the darkest possible way. The entire globe will see tyranny like it's never seen before, and escaping it will be nearly impossible due to the technology we have today.
I forgot to add in the economic warfare that they are also waging. Shutting down businesses that don’t toe the line with their agenda. Getting people fired from their jobs, evicted from their homes, looting and destroying. Demanding payments, demanding rent moratorium (private property gone), demanding no borders, no police (to weaken the state), abolition of prisons and the freeing of all prisoners (instant soldiers for the cause, and empty prisons ready for the inmates of their new society).

Interesting that they said he could kill more people with a truck. Why are they not trying to ban trucks?

When the house is infested with cockroaches, looking the other way, tolerating them, or pretending they aren't there only makes the problem worse.

Nah, that will never happen, they are not even willing to defend their own cities! LOL


They expect 'police' to do it for them, and if they arent doing it, they will sit home and do nothing!

What a bunch of idiots. They blocked the street and pulled guns on the guy. That was dumb. What was really stupid is the driver stopped and got out again when the road ahead was clear. He deserved the smack down he got.



What are they even protesting?

So, there are NO citizens willing to defend their own city? Surely there are plenty of people licensed to carry firearms in that city...where are they when their city needs them? (do they expect someone else to do it for them?)
