No mention whatsoever of assaults which are always a part of Antifa "protests".

quote:

Why are they controversial? The group is known for causing damage to property during protests. In Berkeley, black-clad protesters wearing masks threw Molotov cocktails and smashed windows at the student union center where the Yiannopoulos event was to be held. Crow said members use violence as a means of self-defense and they believe property destruction does not equate to violence. "There is a place for violence. Is that the world that we want to live in? No. Is it the world we want to inhabit? No. Is it the world we want to create? No. But will we push back? Yes," Crow said.

I turned it on a few minutes ago, and the first quote was that the protesters against the white supremacists were solely the victims and didn't instigate anything. The guy said he didn't see a single person from their side assault them first, despite the direct video evidence of him being a liar.

Propaganda piece. Charlottesville and Trump's "on many sides" comments are going to cast a more inquisitive eye on Antifa than their recent violent actions. They've been able to stay low key because the media won't call them out. They're getting more pub this time (though not necessarily negative publicity). After this more people want to know what Antifa is.

That's where this article comes into play. A fluff piece to get out ahead of any negative connections to violence that a researcher might discover. "Yeah we destroy property but it's necessary to send our message. We would never be violent towards people."

I know I should not be surprised by CNN promoting bald-faced lies in service of the Leftist agenda, but I am surprised by this.

Antifa absolutely do not use violence "as self defense". They are terrorists in the plainest of terms.

This is the shape of things to come.

In a Totalitarian State the agitation agents of Der Staat are infallible and incapable of committing serious crimes. On the other hand, if you wave the wrong flag and give the wrong speech, you can be assaulted and even killed.

100 years from now in the USA, nobody will dare publicly denounce Leftism.

That's pathetic, but okay. How about the actual, physical violence committed against people who wanted to attend the lecture?

Obama's America created these wackos. Never forget that.

The only way to stop these animals is for the police to start using real bullets. Treat the mask-wearing thugs like the rabid dogs they are and put them down.

Bruh, read the article. It's always in "self-defense". Or do you not believe that speech that hurts your feelings is violence? If so, you're a Nazi, and Nazis deserve to be assaulted.

Um yeah. He didn't create the sandy butthole movement, to be sure, but it flourished and became the ridiculous clown show it is today under him, and certainly with the encouragement of his administration. shite, the things they were doing with the dept. of education alone is responsible for a huge percentage of the daily "outrage" we see.

Barack Obama is the most divisive President in American history by a large margin.

The Liberal Trash twice elected a race-baiting piece of shite who spent eight years weaponizing government agencies for use in attacking those who rightly disagreed with him, emboldened terrorists and led the creation of the DNC Brownshirts we know as ANTIFA.

He should be in prison.
