If you were the guy with the long-range rifle, would you be at the rally? I'd be watching the rally from somewhere else.

I think I’ll join them, only to flip at a very inconvenient moment

No, we have to fight them on the streets because they have taken away our rights to free speech and free assembly. The government is not stopping them from doing this and often works with them to silence us. These are the people who violently attack people for conservative speakers and meetings.

Not fighting means losing everything at this point. The mistake was not fighting sooner.

>This is silliness. There aren’t enough of these people to do anything.

First off the left is paying them and secondly notice all the good press they’re getting? The left is about to greatly enlarge them.

>Ignore them.

Ignoring the Red Guards until they’re to large to fight back against is foolish.

>You enlarge them by joining them in fighting, it’s what they want.

They get enlarged by being shown as winners. Antifa was losing numbers after losing the battle of Berkley. Today kids just see people in black masks given free reign to beat people for fun.

In the Boston free speech rally Antifa beat Trump supporters on there way into the event. The police allowed them to occupy the pathway leading to the protected area and most people who went through were attacked.

>It’s ludicrous to think they will accomplish anything with their posturing. Let them fight with the police, or not. The populace will turn against them quickly.

It’s not their posturing that worries me. It’s the authorities working with them. The cops let them come in armed and masked both felonies, they intentional don’t protect people from them, and then they let them destroy for fun with few if any arrests.

During the initial Russian revolution the goverment wasn’t as much overthrown as the people in charge of public safety just handed over the weapons and the keys to protestors and let them take the state over. The people in charge wanted the revolution but couldn’t be seen to openly support it. So they allowed their friends to overthrow the goverment while they pretended there was nothing they could do to stop them.

The media TOLD them we are one and the same; if we don’t support the “progressive” (read: Bolshevik) agenda, we are Nazis. Look at Boston this past weekend, where a free speech demonstration was shut down; that said everything you need to know. No white supremacists/separatists, just free speech advocates - shut down by our loser class.

It is like porn to me to see them so unhappy; now they know what working Americans felt for the last 8 years...

Antifa spreads peace the same way Islam does, through subjugation.
