D.C. Metro Police Give Antifa What They Deserve
[TOWNHALL] This past weekend The Proud Boys and other right-wing groups organized a rally at Washington D.C.’s Freedom Plaza to protest Big Tech suppressing speech based on conservative ideology. Approximately 250 people attended the rally and Antifa
...the armed wing of the Democratic Party...
brought around 50 members who were dressed in all black and wearing protective equipment such as body armor, helmets, and goggles. The left-wing anarchist group also wore masks just like they did in Portland to cover their identity.

Washington, D.C. Metro Police placed barricades between each side and kept the groups separated. Some Antifa members were able to skirt the barriers and single out a man wearing a MAGA hat. However,
a lie repeated often enough remains a lie...
this time, the police were allowed to do their job and pull the man away from the Antifa agitators without any reported injury to him.

The groups were placed so far apart on purpose they had difficulty hearing one another. At one point, Antifa insurrectionists attempted to break through an area, but the Metro officers quickly shut them down violently.

A few Antifa members attempted to bull rush officers. They were quickly grabbed and forcefully shoved backward, at least one falling on his back.

Metro Police met Antifa with the only thing they understand and the one thing they deserve ‐ aggression. The anarchist group arrives at protests dressed for war in protective equipment and with weapons such as pipes, crowbars, and other blunt objects to shutdown opposing speech with physical violence.

The Portland Police failed, but Metro P.D. treated Antifa appropriately. They are a group that uses their anonymity to injure and shut down the First Amendment. After the anarchists could not do that this weekend in Washington, their response was to attempt to break the line of officers. Traditionally, Antifa’s attempts to use of force are successful. This time they failed.

#3 How long before one or more of these douches sues Tupperware because their home-made armor didn't help much against a riot baton?

#4 Such aggression. Title should be:

DC METRO POLICE/ANTIFA STANDOFF

Interestingly, Hitler retrospectively stated once that his Reich machine could have been stopped if opposition forces “had from the first day annihilated with the utmost brutality the nucleus of our new movement.

Goebbels too said, “If the enemy had known how weak we were, it would probably have reduced us to jelly…. It would have crushed in blood the very beginning of our work.

Don't depend on the cops, America. You're still a militia... 'necessary to the security of a free State'.
