CNN's Chris Cuomo Defends Antifa: Attacks On Police, Journalists "Not Equal" To Fighting Bigots

Well, Unite The Right had their rally in D.C. over the weekend. It truly was a gathering of total losers. Around 30 showed up; proof positive that these fools represent a slice of a slice of the most extreme fringe of American politics. They’re not conservative. They’re not a big part of the GOP or Trump coalitions. The group to confront them, however, dwarfed their numbers easily. With no rumble with these alt-right folks possible, the thugs on the Left, Antifa (anti-fascist), decided to attack police and the press...

Antifa would have been locked up and prosecuted under federal anti-rioting laws if they were rightwing, or in either case when America was a saner and more functional country. And a very public investigation for inciting and abetting riots would have been lauched against Cuomo, CNN and all his media comrade spewing that party line.

18 U.S. Code § 2101 - Riots

(a) Whoever travels in interstate or foreign commerce or uses any facility of interstate or foreign commerce, including, but not limited to, the mail, telegraph, telephone, radio, or television, with intent—

(1) to incite a riot; or

(2) to organize, promote, encourage, participate in, or carry on a riot; or

(3) to commit any act of violence in furtherance of a riot; or

(4) to aid or abet any person in inciting or participating in or carrying on a riot or committing any act of violence in furtherance of a riot;

and who either during the course of any such travel or use or thereafter performs or attempts to perform any other overt act for any purpose specified in subparagraph (A), (B), (C), or (D) of this paragraph— [1]

Shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

JEFF SESSIONS, WHERE ARE YOU???

[Mr. K]

Because some animals are more equal than others.

[a fool in paradise]

antifu has been given a pass for well over 10 years, they famously rioted in Toledo while Bush was president.

Back then they called President Bush a Fascist and all police Fascists. They also doxed some FReepers they considered to be Fascists.

How do you possibly defend a group that attacks fellow civilians, police, the media, and purposefully causes property damage? Treat them like the criminal gang they are.

[Impala64ssa]

Like his brother Andrew, the sh!t never falls far from the bat. Like father, like son of a bitch.

[Lazamataz]

Chris Cuomo has just guaranteed he will never be President.

CNN’s Chris Cuomo Defends KKK: Attacks On Police, Journalists “Not Equal” To Fighting Bigots

[Williams]

Everything coming out id these reporters/ Democrats is anti American and anti rule of law. What he is saying is 100% opposite the law and rules for a civil society. At this point Democrats are a party of illegality and insurrection.

[Buckeye McFrog]

But go ahead, New York. You go ahead and re-elect his brother as Governor.

[onedoug]

Sessions is just off 30+ years doing Senatorial “business”, and hasn’t been capable of doing any real work for at least that long.

His nomination was President Trumps first mistake in office, and it was a doozy.

[allendale]

Someone should ask Chris Cuomo, the crack journalist that he is, to actually sit down with and interview some of these Antifa characters. Who knows? Cuomo may have a definitive moment.

[joshua c]

He should go and cover the next antifa “protest”, up close and personal.

No affiliation or support for the Unite the Right group but the number 25 or 40 people at the rally keeps being repeated. Lafayette park was packed. Dont know the capacity but I dont believe it was 25 or 40.

Oh and I accidentally marched with BLM as I tried to make my way to Lafayette Square. Not affiliated or support them either.

[elcid1970]

Chris Cuomo has also guaranteed a spike in ammo sales. If society and the police can’t protect you, then you are forced back onto your own personal resources, which include the use of deadly force.

Googled his birth father, Pope Mario the Pious. Had nearly forgotten what an obnoxious arrogant pr*ck he was. Anyway, the arrogance has been passed on to the spawn.

Bro Andrew has a Mussolini complex. He is at war with gun owners and is trying to spread his NRA hatred to other states.

"Attacks On Police, Journalists 'Not Equal' To Fighting Bigots"

I always thought a poor excuse is better than none.

[tbw2]

Actually, we have repeated cases of police being present and REFUSING to protect you.

San Jose police refused to protect Trump supporters at a 2016 rally, gingerly helping people up after liberal bullies tore off clothes, pelted people with rocks and eggs.

Berkley police formed a barricade and wouldn’t let conservatives being assaulted by violent liberals past. And despite several people ending up in the hospital, they refused to take police reports. Then police could minimize it because they refused to accept reports.

At the first Unite the Right event, white supremacists showed up with faces uncovered for an idiotic looking march. Antifa shows up with covered faces and makeshift weapons. And police ensure a violent confrontation by putting the two groups side by side while forcing white nationalists leaving to pass THROUGH the violent liberal mob. There’s video of the guy who ran over a liberal chick having his car surrounded by liberals and someone striking the back of the vehicle with a board or other object. He’s legitimately scared they’ll break in and hurt him, so he tries to leave, and there is a mob in front of him.

Liberals are justifying the behavior of their lynch mobs, the return to “Witch! Blasphemer! Everyone get the pitchforks and knives and kill them!”

And we’re seeing the same thing in Seattle and Portland. Proud Boys show up, some with arms and faces covered. Antifa shows up, uniformly with faces covered and most with makeshift weapons. Instead of police keeping them apart, police stand aside and ignore the violence on conservatives. When Antifa attacks cops, politicians don’t care very much because they approve of the violent liberals’ actions just as many moderate Muslims cannot condemn Muslim fundamentalists blowing stuff up. It furthers their shared objective, totalitarian control of society. So the press and officials deny that Antifa is authoritarian liberalism’s food soldiers.

And this is why liberal politicians and administrators have mostly let Antifa bullies roam campuses intimidating people, riot in front of conventions, and attack conservative events.

The liberals in power are enabling this because they AGREE with it. That’s why they tell police to stand down and not protect conservatives, whether the violent liberal mob is in front of their homes or attacking them in a protest march, invading a meeting hall to shout down the speaker or beating up people in line to hear said person.

CWII is in its opening skirmishes. Deadly force will soon follow.
