Another Philadelphia man who is believed to be active in the Antifa movement has turned themselves in to face charges related to an alleged assault and robbery near the 'We the People' rally in Old City on Nov. 17.

Thomas Massey, 32, of West Philadelphia, surrendered on Nov. 28 to face charges for the alleged incident on the 100 block of Chestnut Street, in which a group of U.S. Marine reservists some blocks from the rally they were assaulted by a group of men and women calling them "Nazis" and "white supremacists." One complainant said their phone was stolen.(snip)

Massey is now charged with two counts each of criminal conspiracy, aggravated assault and terroristic threats for the incident. He was freed on bail of $10,000 after posting 10 percent, according to court records.

Last week, Thomas Keenan, 32, surrendered to face charges for the same incident. They are two of three white males identified in surveillance video as participating in the alleged assault, according to Philadelphia police.

Both Keenan and Massey are mentioned frequently online on conservative, right-wing and white supremacists websites as members of Antifa. Some lists have Keenan and Massey's names marked with an asterisk, allegedly indicating Antifa members who these groups consider dangerous. They are also listed online as members of Philly "ARA" (Anti-Racist Action).

“I think there should have been more violence yesterday,” Massey told the Post in a Jan. 21 on-the-record interview. Massey reportedly acknowledged the protest was violent, saying, “There were some rocks thrown, ” and added that he hoped future protests would be be “more successful. I’ll get to punch a Nazi. I didn’t get to do that yesterday. The police stopped me.”

Why did these two surrender?
It can’t be due to feeling any guilt.
Was their online presence so loaded with info that would implicate them? Maybe with Antifa, once you have been outed, you are on your own. Don’t expect a lot of legal support if you’re the average hooded Goon.

Because they'd be safer in jail rather than having the United States Marines after them.

Sprayed them. In the face with Mace, then they “bravely” assaulted the impaired Marines, whom they out-numbered. And being the maggots they are, after beating unarmed, incompacitated men of honor; they felt the need to steal a cell phone for a trophy.

I hope they get a violent date several times a day, every day they are in Jail. You see, degenerates do not learn any other way.

Philly is a liberal cesspool of liberal violence enabled by the media. After the media made a fuss about that world famous PhillyCheeesesteak joint for asking customers to speak English, you had throngs of idiots going there and harassing them, feeling entitled to the famous sandwich.

They would buy the sandwich and boo them at the same time when I was there. It was ridicuous.

The accused has offered himself up for surrender.
He appears reasonably sober, though somewhat nervous.
He had orange powder on his fingers and shirt. He had the strong aromas of Ranch Style Doritos and Hawaiian Punch on his breath.”

Out on $10,000 Bail after paying the Bondsman 10% = $1,000 with multiple counts against him.

Maybe they should get Mulehead on the case so these guys are ruined personally and financially.

I think they attack soft targets like older vets. NOBODY can attack most Marines and not come away hurt badly.
