Yvette Felarca, the Berkeley area school teacher and militant left-wing protester responsible for organizing the riot at the University of California, Berkeley in February 2017, claims that violence against the far-right is “not a crime.”
Felarca, who belongs to “By Any Means Necessary,” a far-left group, is currently facing assault charges after she was caught on video assaulting a white supremacist during a July 2016 rally in Sacramento, Cali.
The school teacher and her compatriots engaged in violent clashes against members of the far-right Traditional Worker’s Party, which had a permit to march in the city. The violence between the two groups resulted in a number of assaults and multiple stabbings. In July 2017, police charged Felarca with “assault by means of force likely to inflict great bodily injury, participating in a riot, and inciting a riot.”
As reported by Huffington Post on Wednesday during her arraignment, Felarca described her actions as a form of self-defense, and therefore “not a crime.”

Antifa telling reporters not to film them and attacking reporters that don’t listen to them makes sense now. They do not want people, especially their liberal sheep to know what they really support.
Which makes America so unique. There is a period of time between the downfall and when the mess is being cleaned up and the new government is being established when it can go either way. The power void us a vulnerable time. The Russians didn’t didn’t do well. Lenin was hated and sent away and then returned.
Pretty sure if even a marginally conservative group was posting the same things, they would be in a heap of trouble.
I sure think it meets the definition of sedition. I do not expect anything to be done over it though.
The media is supporting these people who are against everything this country stands for. I am wondering how this will end. I don’t see how this can fly.
This seems to be unraveling on social media, some liberals are waking up that some of the things these groups support is pretty out there even for them.
FWIW,
I was reading “Slouching Towards Gomorrah” by Judge Robert Bork, (a great but brutal read), and he grabbed a quote from Newt Gingrich of all people.
The quote was something like this, “America is Anarchy with Guardrails”.
The Guardrails are the Morality found in Natural Law.
I think Ben Franklin also had something to say about this.
It’s a leap of faith.
A leap that most illiberals are terrified of.
In 2017, yelling "I support President Trump, capitalism, private property and the Constitution!" any where at any time is apparently also now part of the same restriction.
Boston isn’t getting the same level of attention because there was very limited violence.
Perhaps that is a good thing.

I like it. :)
Unfortunately too only a few people participate and many people refuse to accept the outcome. Especially when it doesn’t go their way. In the past good or bad we all accepted the fact that we are all Americans. Not so much anymore.
I’m happy Gavin had the good sense to have the Proud Boys sit out the Charlotte rally.
Sorry bitch, Eric "the Red" is not AG.
From the About Us page on daily caller...
“Founded in 2010 by Tucker Carlson, a 20-year veteran journalist, and Neil Patel, former chief policy advisor to Vice President Cheney, The Daily Caller is one of America’s largest and fastest-growing news publications.”
Precisely
How old were you on the sixties?
Did you not study the Russian take over by communists? Or germanys take over by the fascists? ( just another form of leftism) or cubas subjugation or Venezuela..... are you really that naive
You can yell fire in a crowded theater. What happens to you depends upon what was happening in the theater
If there was an actual fire you’re good. If on the other hand you are trying to invite people you have legal issues to face
And Tucker hasn’t worked there for years
Try reading their so called journalism with their unnamed sources and gossip and rumors. Then get back to reality
After all, nobody argues politically on Facebook anymore, so that must mean everybody’s gone over to the leftist side, right?
Nazis also said violence against Jews was not a crime so I guess antifa and nazis think quite alike
Antifa terrorism is a crime.
concealed carry ; they mob you , that’s as far as they get
