Fox showed a lovely video of a reporter being surrounded in her car at a gas station by Antifa thugs threatening her and beating her car with pipes. That is the true face of Liberalism. She noted that Antifa uses cell phones to call gangster groups up to hurt/kill people.
An interesting screed on this anifa crap by a Marine . . . Ya gotta love the Marines!
If you are paid $25.00 an hour to show up to a rally to “counter” the other party using physical force and violence, you are not a “counter protestor.” You are a mercenary.
There is no need for further debate on this. You were paid to attack someone you don’t know for reasons that you couldn’t care enough about to go there for free. You did your “job” and collected your check and your reimbursement of expenses. You’re a mercenary.
Not a Patriot. Not a Social Justice Warrior. Not a Defender of Freedom or Liberty. Not an upholder of Truth or Justice. None of those things you claim to be. You are a mercenary.
And mercenaries are not lawful combatants and deserve whatever comes their way at the hands of the people they are attacking.
You have no 1st Amendment rights when you’re a mercenary.
Doesn’t matter what side you’re on. Doesn’t matter what cause you’re showing up to disrupt. If you can’t express yourself peacefully through diplomatic means, then you better be prepared to meet your maker at the hands of someone who is only barely keeping their own violent tendencies at bay through a massive exercise of self-control.
I know it sounds romantic to attend these rallies and get shit started with the other side. And when you’re young and passionate, it’s really easy to get whipped up into a frenzy of raw emotions. There is a reason why young people are preferred when it comes to warfare. They are easy to manipulate and control and set off.
But I’m telling you all this right now. You’ve got no idea what road you are starting down. Romance and idealism wears off really fast when you’re laying in a pool of your own blood trying to stuff your intestines back into your torn abdomen.
I’ve been lucky enough to go forty-two years without having to put the skills I learned in the Marines to use. I continue to train and keep those skills up to date because I see the madness that is happening all across this country. I don’t train to attack others like you do. I train to defend others FROM you. I’m not alone either.
There are thousands of men and women in this country who have seen war and death and don’t want any more to do with it. They want to live in peace. They want to forget the things they’ve had to do in the service of their country. They want to raise their kids and have family BBQs and build tree houses and soap box derby cars and have tea parties.
They don’t want this shit that you’re selling.
You have the extremist left and the extremist right that are doing their best to get something started. To force us into a Civil War. Even in the 1860s, the violence between the North and South was nowhere near what we see today. Nowhere. Even. Close.
And yet we still had a war of ideology that consumed hundreds of thousands of lives.
All you young and naive kids on both sides of this equation who think that having a Civil War will advance your agenda or restore your vision of what you think is America, just remember this: Those of us older generations aren’t having any of this shit. And if you jump off, you better be prepared to deal with US. We don’t care what color you’re wearing or what sign you’re holding if you come after us, our friends, our family, our co-workers, our neighbors, etc., WE will kill you.
So remember that when you’re thinking that it’s just Left vs Right, or Liberal vs Conservative, or Commie vs. Fascist. We are the variable you’re not considering.
That “Silent Majority” that you pretend does not exist is getting really sick and tired of your bullshit.
Never forget that bolsheviks in Russia were assisted by Germany in coming to power in 1917, and they murdered the Tsar and his entire family in cold blood.
Because the ideology that drives antifa does not consider compromise, they resort to massive blood letting to retain power.
It would also help to study antifa’s tactics in Germany prior to WW2.
The left has to lump everyone that does not agree with them into a single class. In Russia this was the “Bourgeoisie.”
Progressives must associate their opponents with the most heinous group from recent history, the Nazis of Germany.
Associating their enemy with Nazism also takes the spotlight off of the communist depredations of Stalin and Mao.
Sedition.

Just another Soros Color Revolution. I’m sure when the shooting starts we will all be labeled Russian Separatists just like the Eastern Ukrainians were.
I don’t care though honestly, I’ll accept mortar rounds and RPG’s from anyone willing to deliver.
Good idea.
They’re courageous opponents of fascism. Yup. Let’s all get behind them on this./s
Open borders, UN control, Hell on Earth.
Excellent! I slammed Ryan on twitter. I’ll have to go back and hit the others too.
Of course they are the enemy of the United States.
Their leaders should be rounded up.
Moreover, any of them showing up in gear should be immediately arrested and charge with attempting to incite a riot.
The Democratic Party is probably struggling between a knee jerk applause at what ANTIFA does, and distancing themselves knowing the damage it will do.
To quote the master from the show, Kung Fu,
“Please leave, and do not return.”
To quote me, get the Heck out of my country!!
It’s past time for Trump to call them out by name and call out their master and tactics.
Pelosi Statement Condemning Antifa Violence in Berkeley
“Our democracy has no room for inciting violence or endangering the public, no matter the ideology of those who commit such acts. The violent actions of people calling themselves antifa in Berkeley this weekend deserve unequivocal condemnation, and the perpetrators should be arrested and prosecuted.
“In California, as across all of our great nation, we have deep reverence for the Constitutional right to peaceful dissent and free speech. Non-violence is fundamental to that right. Let us use this sad event to reaffirm that we must never fight hate with hate, and to remember the values of peace, openness, and justice that represent the best of America.”
(Someone did a good job of writing that for her.)
Berkeley Mayor Calls for Antifa to be Classified as Crime Gang After Clashes at Weekend Protest
Antifa equals Anti First Amendment!
