Viral video reportedly shows antifa members trying to rip American flag from woman's hands in Portland
2020-10-06
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] A viral video out of Portland shows a woman holding on to an American flag while reported antifa members try to rip it from her hands.

"There was a conservative protest today in downtown Portland. Antifa
...the armed wing of the Democratic Party...
came to attack the attendees. As they were leaving, antifa tried to steal a woman’s US flag (she’s a person of color). She refused to let go & they pulled her to ground by her hair. She still didn’t let go," journalist Andy Ngo tweeted, accompanied by video of the incident.

The video has grabbed people's attention, with more than a half million views on Twitter and conservative radio host Dan Bongino condemning antifa.

"ANTIFA is a fascist
...anybody you disagree with, damn them...
terror group that worships violence and destruction. They are also known racists who terrorize Minority communities. They should be prosecuted as the bandidos hard boyz they are. Only racists support ANTIFA," Bongino tweeted in response.

President Trump vowed in September to designate antifa and the Ku Klux Klan terrorist organizations when he announced an economic empowerment plan for the black community.

During the first presidential debate of the general election cycle, Democratic nominee Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden
...Candidate for president in 2020. When the stock market crashed, Franklin Roosevelt got on the television and didn't just talk about the princes of greed. He said, 'Look, here's what happened.'...
described antifa as an "idea."

"Antifa’s an idea, not an organization," Biden said after the Trump administration moved to designate it a terror group. "That’s what [Trump's] FBI director said."

"Ideas do not target coppers. Ideas do not burn down buildings. Ideas do not kill innocent Americans. Organizations do. And Democrats should condemn this shameful group in the same manner President Trump continues to condemn white supremacy
...the pernicious doctrine that laws were intended to be obeyed, that society works better when people don't pour shreiking from their places of worship every Friday for a weekend of rioting over insults real or imagined; and that cannibalism, beastiality, incest, murder, theft, rape, and similar activities are bad. A Dead White European (which invalidates his opinion) philosopher once opined that societies thrive when a person's word can be relied upon, and that a society which puts individual happiness first will invariably fail. Strangely enough, other successful societies, such as China, Japan, Korea, and those kinds of places could also be lumped with white supremacist societies, since they push the same values...

Sure, and no arrest while Trump supporter, 44, is arrested for sucker-punching a protester and breaking his tooth ‘for playing the rap song F*** Donald Trump’ during a MAGA rally
