They would but they know that the police and prosecutors would take the protesters side and you'll get the death sentence over it. My life isn't worthy of stopping them when the govt has proven time and again that the white Conservative Christian Male will get the full punishment of the law irregardless of who is in power. The Left controls all govt by being employed by said govt.

Is there an election coming up that I don't know about?

These riots sound peaceful though.

Yeah, it's less likely too because we haven't had any riots/unrest that were really close to areas where these types of dudes live.

If Antifa ever follows through with the occasional (likely made up) rumors about going to ______ suburb to cause chaos, you might actually get the beatdowns we'd all like to see. But the stuff last night happened in a very small area of downtown where few locals live (and not our type of people). So you'd need regular bags to gear up and drive 20-45 minutes on a Saturday night to get to the party and that makes it even more likely you'd get arrested. Regular dudes are not going to do that to protect some windows for accounting firms.

Even in Portland I think this is the case. Hence all the scraps happen when there is a counterrally of conservative groups.

And ultimately, there just aren't enough Antifa types outside of the urban hotbeds to make organic conflict a reality. Outside of Portland/SF/etc. Antifa actions in the South or Midwest will look like last night - 20 dudes from other places managing to set a cop car on fire before they all get arrested. 2020 was different because those 20 dudes could activate a few hundred BLM types.

WSB was reporting that all arrested were from out of state, often from northeastern states.

I am friends with several people involved in the APB project at a very high level. Guys who bi-weekly meet with the Atlanta Chief of Police, and the reps from the State and Federal agencies who will use this facility upon completion. They are not playing around but can’t go in heavy handed and blast these idiots to oblivion. Their response the other night was quick and decisive given their rules of engagement. The goal is to outlast the agitators by issuing the stiffest penalties available. Most are being held on federal terrorism charges with no bail option. Eventually, the ranks of the willing agitators will dwindle to nothing with every loser that is put away and can’t be bailed out by their puppeteers.

OK, I'm not a native but I own property here and pay taxes. These frickers probably don't even have a Georgia DL.

This all started with Occupy Wallstreet in 2011 and morphed into Antifa. How they haven’t been classified as a terrorist organization yet is perplexing.




I really don't know that much about these groups because I just write them off as groups of losers who need to feel like they are a part of something, but is that how Antifa started? Occupy Wallstreet had a lot of "mainstream" supports though right?

So was it people who branched off from OWS who became Antifa?

Could be. The primary source of terrorism in this country has been Ecoterrorism for half a dozen decades.

Hard enough to get them to call them Antifa in the first place. If you can’t acknowledge their existence and give them a name then you don’t have to admit they’re terrorists right?

WTO protests in 1999, Seattle was the rebirth of ecoterrorism.

There was a story a couple days ago about them living in the woods outside of Atlanta.

No, they were in the city limits. Grant Park IIRC.

I mean if we want to go that route than the people who rioted at the capitol are just everyday Republicans right?


No. They too were antifa, supplemented by BLM and the glow boys.

The Atlanta City Council is actually supporting/voted for the very thing these protestors don’t want.
