Why is Antifa tolerated? Because they're left wing?

[RockyTop85]

If that is what he means then good. You got liberal nutcases bullying people and showing aggressiveness in public places. In some cases destroying property and/or keeping people from driving down the street because they expect folks to cower to them while they act like fools.

Bloodthirsty vigilantes are equally as unfit for civilized society as nutcase bullies, regardless of political affiliation.

Agreed but the issue here is politicians are allowing this rogue activity to manifest vigilantes because ANTIFA are assaulting people because they outnumber them. Clearly many of these people need a real job.

This is America. Free speech only applies when people say stuff you agree with. Otherwise they need to stfu.

This is more factual than you may even realize

Two Members of Proud Boys Convicted in Brawl Near Republican Club

The charges resulted from an altercation with anti-fascists after the group’s founder, Gavin McInnes, had spoken in Manhattan.

Prosecutors said Maxwell Hare, right, started the altercation outside the Metropolitan Republican Club on the Upper East
Since their founding in New York City in 2016, the far-right Proud Boys have cultivated a rough and ready image, often declaring: “We don’t start fights. We finish them.”
But on Monday, jurors in State Supreme Court in Manhattan rejected claims by two members of the group, who had said they had been acting in self-defense last fall on the Upper East Side when they took part in the beating of four people described by the police as anti-fascists connected to a loose-knit group called Antifa.
The two defendants, Maxwell Hare and John Kinsman, were convicted on charges of attempted gang assault, attempted assault and riot for their part in a melee after an appearance by the founder of the Proud Boys at the Metropolitan Republican Club on East 83rd Street.
That brawl mirrored clashes in other cities that had pitted far-right groups, calling for “free speech” or chanting nationalist and racist slogans, against leftists, including Antifa, who have physically confronted those they deem to be fascists or Nazis.

Whomp whomp.

Whomp whomp.

I remember the redhats on here saying they were just defending themselves even after watching the video.

You don't think the vagina hat wearing Mayor is going to prosecute the fascists do you?

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Paving stone(?) broke to fit in the case?

It's not up to the mayor.

 

[VolStrom]

Those girly men don't realize that they're trying to lob stones uphill, what idiots. All the uphill people have to do is throw them back with 5 times the velocity, but I doubt either side was terribly smart.

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

It's not up to the mayor.

He's the Police Commissioner also and telling the police to leave them be.

 

[joevol33]

Irony: mick and el complaining about violence, yet completely ignore every single video proof of what antifa does. But they'll hold on to that one bad story about the other guys!

 

[Mick]

Would you want them to violate the constitution. I heard people were arrested. Am I wrong?

 

[DynaLo]

F the proud boys. They went to portland to start sh!t and that is exactly what happened. Both groups are hiding behind the constitution but you only see it from the side of the proud girls.

Lol..PB didn't start any altercations in Portland this time. Antifa attacked their bus, not the other way around.

I'd love to hear the excuse as to why antifa kept rioting and went after the cops for many hours after the patriot groups were long gone.

Face it, the left's military faction is getting out of control and everyone watching knows it.

On what planet is shutting down freedom of speech because you disagree with other views, like antifa does to folks, hiding behind the constitution. It looks like they're standing on it and grinding it into the dirt.

Oh by the way, no affiliation with PB, PP or any other group. Not even an nra member. Just someone sick of the left's antics and calling out the bull shite agenda.

Cool. Do the crime, be prepared to do the time.

Now when are the antifa guys that assaulted Andy Ngo going to stand trial in Portland?

 

[Mick]

Just let it be known that you hate antifa. I hate the white supremacist proud boy racist that actually kill people, commit mass shootings, and terrorism in general. And you hate the people against that.

I don't hate them. I just think they're a bunch of worthless pos idiots getting utilized by the leftists to create discord and push a narrative agenda.

Somebody might want to let the Samoan and black PB members know they're white supremacist racists. Better let the Cuban that leads the PP group know he is as well.

Antifa wouldn't know a real fascist or nazi if one came up and introduced themselves.

You do know that mass shooters come from both party lines, right?

I don't care if antife is causing you unwarranted stress. Just go confront them.

Gee...........they look awful peaceful to me LOL.........They aren't mad and pissed off at nobody. Peaceful.

 

[volbeast33]

You're something else.
FBI's Wray says most domestic terrorism arrests this year involve white supremacy

So basically they have arrested about .0000003% of the population for white supremacy/ demotic terrorism.... I agree with monitoring these groups but seems like much bigger issues to worry about than these random idiots.... As for Antifa, I am not worried about them either..... they tend to hang out in areas where the men are too big of sissies to pump their own gas such as the men( can I call them that) of Oregon.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Here's a picture of your peaceful friendly Portland ,Oregon Mayor out shopping at the local farmer's market.

 

[DynaLo]

Bahaha...stress..lol..things that are asinine never cause me stress.

Wonder if their parents know and approve. It'll be sad for a momma to find out with a phone call from jail.

I'm not looking to cause anyone permanent physical damage so why would I confront them? They'd also come out on the wrong end of attempting to cause me physical injury.

The sarcasm is palpable

 

[zeppelin128]

I defended Antifa when they first came around after Trump got elected. They have lost their way and message the last several months. I don't care for their tactics.

I also don't care for the alt-right, Proud Boys, extremist wing of the Republican party's tactics or ideas either.

I am of the opinion that Antifa and alt-right/Proud Boys both currently suck.

I also think that both groups should have the right to speak what ever they want as long as they don't harm anyone. That protected right goes to everyone. Including vile, despicable groups like the KKK, Proud Boys, neo-fascists, white supremacists, whatever group. Free speech means exactly that. Free speech.
