Police in Tacoma, Washington, killed an armed Antifa extremist early on July 13 after the man threw firebombs at the building and cars in the parking lot and attempted to blow up a large propane tank. The man succeeded in setting one car on fire before officers responded at 4 a.m. and gunned him down, according to the Tacoma Police Department. The man was armed with a rifle and wore a satchel with flares, the police said. No officers were hurt in the encounter. “This morning’s attack at the ICE detention center in Tacoma was a horrific act of violence that has shaken us all,” Washington Governor Jay Inslee wrote on Twitter.

He was also wielding a rifle. But again, because he was a leftist there will be no calls for sensible gun control. Moms Demand Action, David Hogg and the other usual suspects won’t go anywhere near this.

“A friend of Van Spronsen, who described Van Spronsen as an anarchist and anti-fascist,
said that she thinks he wanted to provoke a fatal conflict, the Seattle Times reported.”

Mission accomplished, well done.

Why is this not the top news story today?
Because the nut was a leftist.

By Monday the MSM will have turned this around to 'Trump's Fault' and it will be all over the news.

This guy was carrying the majority of Antifa testosterone.

Too bad more didn’t try.

The left created Antifa. It’s going to come back and bite them.

Still not a terrorist organization though, right? One has officially attacked a federal building, and I’m sure they’re not going to start making OKC comparisons any time soon.

Most people, by the time they reach the age of 69 have matured and have mellowed-out.

” By Monday the MSM will have turned this around to ‘Trump’s Fault’ and it will be all over the news. “

Mark my words: it will be, “You see, this is the lengths people who care about poor innocent women and children valedictorian immigrants have been driven to by this uncaring minority-hating fiend who wants to commit genocide against everyone but old stupid rich white men, and rape and murder and bludgeon and starve everybody in the world until they’re dead and there’s no one left to bury them—this is what happens, you see—THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS!!!!!!!!!!!” And they’ll bang the table and cry and throw their water glass at the camera.

And I? I will laugh at them. And stick out my tongue. For they are fools.

Of course they aren’t. No greater collective of disingenuous Marxist scum exists on planet than what is found at DU. Horrible people.

The Epoch Times correctly identifies the group “Antifa” in the title. I bet nobody else does.

I just checked CNN and they say that his motivation and associations are a mystery.

Thank you. Well there goes my theory on mommy’s basement. Did you catch the ‘antifascist’ label? listed right by the ‘committed anarchist’ label. Would love to know the background of the dead maggot.

The other insanity - he could have started a fire that killed those he was supposedly trying to save.
