Lemons: Gun-Totin' Left-Wingers Demonstrate at the Arizona Capitol: Is Bloodshed on the Horizon?

By Stephen Lemons Sunday, March 26, 2017 at 7:15 a.m. Phoenix New Times

===================================

Hey, lefties with guns, that's cool.

At least, that was my first impression upon seeing about 40 or so assorted anarchists, Brown Berets, and members of a group calling itself the Phoenix John Brown Gun Club across the street from the state Capitol, openly armed to the proverbial teeth.

I was late to the pro-Trump "Make America Great Again" march, which began at Cesar Chavez Plaza — after some confusion about the demonstration's starting at the now past-tense "Patriots Square Park" — and ended at the lawn of the Arizona Capitol.

So I headed straight to the Capitol, but the pro-Trump event was petering out. One of the cops present told me that the MAGA march consisted of a group of about 100.

However, across the street, on the Wesley Bolin Memorial Plaza-side of 17th Avenue were the left-wingers, some of them masking their faces, some not. Many of them were armed with long guns. You know, just like the "patriot" groups.

While I was taking photographs of them, a woman approached me and told me that the group would not be granting interviews. She gave me a flier with a statement from something called the "Redneck Revolt," which according to the flier aims to "put the RED back in redneck."

The flier directed people to a Facebook page and a website, and the woman said that I could contact them after the fact to ask questions.

About that time, the group lined up, double-file, and began walking toward 19th Avenue.

I would not be the least surprised if CW2 officially begins in AZ. We are ready, with about the highest gun freedom rating in all 57 states according to any rating I have seen(57 at least as #44 likes to refer to the USA)

The guy in front of the fag with the flag...what kind of weapon is that? I don’t recognize that at all.

Wait for it...

The good thing is there are going to be a lot of only-dropped-once guns for sale when it’s over.

When a leftist demonstrates with a firearm, it’s never about
their Second Amendment rights, and most definitely not about yours.

Their sign says they will defend liberty for “muslims and Jews”?

Old rule of thumb: If you see a streetwalker you might actually want to touch, that’s the undercover cop.

Gun-totin' Left-wingers? Wait. What? Can there even be such a thing?

That would be like saying "patchouli-wearing Right-wingers" do such and such.

There's no such thing.

I warned the AZ Leftists not to try anything at our rallies several times. Told them the 2nd Amenment is well respected by us. They dare not approach our lines. Their posturing is all defensive.

According to the article, they were too stupid to understand they were making a public demonstration; people can see and identify them, film them, post it on websites. Wow, nutballs on parade.

If you want to be anonymous, don't march with a big banner, crazy left wing activists.

The Brown Berets are the militant/enforcer wing of MeChA and La Raza.

They are to the Latinos what the Black Guerilla Family is to blacks and Aryan Brotherhood is to whites.

ROTFLMAO. Looks like a bunch of clowns. It says “Liberty for all “Working” People and then goes on to list all of the country’s freeloader groups. What the hell is up with that? I’ll bet this bunch is paid with dope instead of money.

I’d bet their game is to feign support for all elements, Jews, Muslims, perverts, refugees et al. These guys want them on board and want them to believe they are they’re the saviors or hired guns for these groups. That way they can cultivate media, deceitful politicians, and all these leftist organizations for sympathetic support, etc.

An odd pairing until you realize they can’t come right out and say they want to murder capitalist Caucasian Christians, so they do it by omission. You see the list covers basically everyone else on Earth.
