WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump portrays the hundreds of people arrested nationwide in protests against racial injustice as violent urban left-wing radicals. But an Associated Press review of thousands of pages of court documents tell a different story.

Very few of those charged appear to be affiliated with highly organized extremist groups, and many are young suburban adults from the very neighborhoods Trump vows to protect from the violence in his reelection push to win support from the suburbs.

>>The left wing radicals instigate the trouble and then step back and watch as idealistic stupid youth step in and get in the line of fire.
>>
>>It’s all well organized, with the organizers well trained in how to avoid getting themselves arrested or injured. These tactics have been used by radicals for over a century.

Communists cause the riots. Same as always.

So if they're "violent urban left-wing radicals" that are unaffiliated with highly organized extremist groups, that makes it all better how, exactly?

Looking at the booking photos, most of them scare the willies out of me, I don’t care if they carry a Communist Party membership card, or a Starbucks discount card.

“Hey there young lady, would you describe yourself as a leftist radical and card-carrying member of ANTIFA?”
“No.”

The only people that believe the Ass Press are left wing partisan hacks.

This is the AP - which has “fact checkers” that make things up as they are going along.

America is a tyranny of Lawyers. Defense attorneys and malleable probably payed off judges have destroyed American law. Defense attorneys must be eliminated as a class of productive Americans.

If there is no law, then there is no law protecting the lives and families and property of Defense attorneys

affiliated with highly organized extremist groups

This is the Washington Post's way to exclude Antifa from their definition.

And the Department of Justice has pushed for detention even as prisons across the U.S. were releasing high-risk inmates because of COVID-19 and prosecutors had been told to consider the risks of incarceration during a pandemic when seeking detention.

Oh, the poor little darlings. Give them a gallon of gas and a book of matches and send them on their ways.

That has got to be one of the most slanted "reports" I have ever read.

AP is Deep State Media, probably the oldest.

in protests against racial injustice

And this is supposed to be a "news" article.

Hard to believe these media types could make even bigger clowns of themselves. But, articles like this proves they’re TRYING! When you’re actively demonstrating you have no integrity, there simply is no bottom to the bottom of how low you’re willing to go.

Nice attempt at a smear with that assumption that because Trump is trying to protect the suburbs that these punks are somehow they are somehow Trump supporters. The AP conveniently whitewashes the fact that those suburban white kids being arrested are sporting antifa gear, and have long histories of antifa social media posts.

If they were on the right, the soros DAs would be prosecuting them instead of dropping the charges time and again. In fact the only people do get charged are folks on the right that resist being killed by these leftist terrorists.

"Very few of those charged appear to be affiliated with highly organized extremist groups, and many are young suburban adults from the very neighborhoods Trump vows to protect from the violence in his reelection push to win support from the suburbs."

In other words, 'useful idiots'.

Typical asinine article written by three stooges.We do know the two main groups who ARE in these riots and stirring up the mostly angry WHITE women and gamer/skateboard boys from the Suburbs: BLM and Antifa. We do know who supports BLM and Antifa and WILL NOT charge them or anyone else in the anarchy and riots:EVERY Democrat run municipality. This is all coordinated by the the leftist cabal which includes DNC,typical leftist groups,Soros and of course #NeverTrumptards. Making these federal crimes throws a lot of weight and is the only justice we have at this point. If the threat of a federal record doesn’t deter anyone,they basically are a domestic enemy and anarchist.

This much duplicity and dishonesty took no less than THREE “journalists”.
