ABR SIT-REP 2: ANTIFA/BLM/REVCOM TACTICS ARE EVOLVING AND ESCALATING
American Partisan ^ | 15 Sep, 2020 | Matt Bracken

Posted on 09/18/2020 8:24:49 AM PDT by MtnClimber

Any readers of American Partisan who are interested in understanding the evolution of ABR (Antifa-BLM-RevCom) tactics and strategy should make Andy Ngo’s Twitter feed a daily stop. Ngo is literally orders of magnitude better than any other internet or MSM reporter when it comes to finding and uploading the most important ABR video links. Nobody comes close.

SNIP

Over the past week we have seen a shift in tactics by ABR, away from just attacking courthouses and police precincts, toward roving bands of violent vandals roaming downtown and suburban areas. This video was posted this morning by Andy Gno:

“Marauding antifa black bloc in Seattle smash up property as they march around the city. People watch in disbelief. No police.”

Portland Police have also increased the severity of their response. In this video, an ABR driving a vehicle had been defying police orders to stop cruising through their police lines in an attempt to disrupt their advance toward ABR rioters. They cut his tires to immobilize him. The comments following this post are well worth reading and at times hilarious, as well as providing context.

“Antifa driver who was blocking the road gets his car tires slashed by Portland Police.” ABR are now using paint-filled lightbulbs as projectile weapons:

Antifa groups share manuals & instructions on how to make “paint bombs” by filling lightbulbs with paint. The goal is that the shattered glass cuts you and the paint goes into the wounds.

Here, Andy Ngo links to an article explaining how ABR uses the concept of “leaderless resistance” to avoid scrutiny and legal action.

“Antifa militants claim that they are part of a leaderless movement. This does everything to advance their cause, while giving them the plausible deniability they need”

Their methods are cruel with the paint in open wounds and such. We will be more considerate by using large caliber projectiles that will blow a hole thru them and kill them without infection worries.

This game that is playing out is funded by Soros, is an attempt at global marxist takeover. Stay calm have a food and ammunition supply ready. This will turn into a shooting war. Think of this, record firearm sales in April, June and July. That is not leftists, there are far more of us than them, in America. We will prevail.

“Antifa militants claim that they are part of a leaderless movement”

Then where do they get their funding?
They don’t riot for free.

Matt Bracken knocks another one out of the park.

Those who are able to, get ready (more range time, BLOAT, harden the home, etc.). Stuff looks like its gonna get real, probably regardless of who wins the election.

PING!

Hopefully, some will survive so that we can help hemp growers and rope manufacturers to prosper.

Matt Bracken’s last Saturday YouTube video mentions that the likely chief instigator of this dumpster fire is an aging communist named Robert Evakian. He heads up the organization Revcom.us (the Revolutionary Communist Party of the USA). Under that group is an organization called either Stop Fascism or Refuse Fascism — in true Biden fashion, the precise name escapes me. Antifa is the subordinate organization to Refuse (?) Fascism.

Yeah my Staten island area of 200,000 Italians that voted probably 70-something percent for Trump is a powder keg :-)

They got 57% of the vote on Staten island and the North shore is Obama’s sons and daughters.

They are afraid to venture over the highway to this side and antifa or BLM wouldn’t make it past the first neighborhood and I am about 12 neighborhoods in.

Things are not going to get real for the vast vast majority of us on here. And let’s not lie and say we are going to head to the city to fight.

I cut down my trips to Brooklyn drastically because it is just not worth it

Eastern European “super-prepper” Selco, a survivor of the 1990s Balkan wars, says it himself: the best way to handle a riot is to avoid it. This sort of news is put out in part to prepare us in case the riot comes our way, IMO.

Unfortunately, my town isn’t known for being heavily Italian American, so it will be more vulnerable.

Nothing is more inspiring, and at the same time more sad, that watching an old movie from the 1940s or 50s that shows street scenes in New York city.
Damn these low lifes that trashed a symbol of Americas greatness.

Those who are not prepared may find it is too late. Guns and ammo are largely sold out. The grocery stores are still in pretty good shape, but increased riots could stop deliveries and shelves would be empty in a few days.

As a side note, rioters in Portland have been chanting “black panthers”. Local news have not passed this sound track through on their videos of the riots. This is third hand information originating from a state police trooper.

But sooner or later, this is going to turn into a gun fight.

Inevitable as the day. This is not "leaderless" at all, it's simply covert, and the leaders have emphasized pushing the envelope very carefully in order to evoke a response the media will triumphantly declare disproportionate. If they're on your doorstep at 0200 pounding and screaming, they're "not touching you" - that nice distinction isn't going to last very long but it's good for now. That is the reason that sympathetic government officials are coming down so hard on Kyle Rittenhouse: to protect that envelope.

It is also the reason the locations of these riots are meticulously planned and coordinated. A corrupt prosecutor in Wisconsin doesn't translate to a sympathetic jury in, say, Texas, Arizona, or Idaho. And, as well, why the targets have so far been limited to the police, who have been systematically demonized in the media and who are operating, as Matt points out, under stricter rules of engagement than the armed citizen. Taking this action to the burbs is a better threat than it is a tactic - the literal blowback will contain lead, and silly plywood shields are only good as targets.

It seems like the places where Soros DAs are installed are also places safe for Antifa/BLM/RevCom and dangerous to anyone resisting the riots.

“Matt Bracken’s last Saturday YouTube video mentions that the likely chief instigator of this dumpster fire is an aging communist named Robert Evakian. “

Actually his name is Robert Avakian.

Here is his wiki

They were getting organizational support via the CCP Houston consulate. That’s why it was closed. The CCP was routing how to videos to key Antifa/BLM players via Tik-Tok.
