#1 Very soon members of this group are going to push too far and multiples of them will be well ventilated.

#2 You may notice Antifa works only in large very Blue areas. C'mon out to the boonies and try that shit, Sweetpea.

BTW_ [off topic] I think the Donks should be the Red faction since they are. How'd things get so reversed.

#3 I remember as a kid, when a controversial group got a parade or demonstration permit, the police kept agitated crowds separated with police lines to keep the peace. This is not happening any more. In fact, city administrators are encouraging mob violence---you saw it in Portland, Charlottesville, and now Minneapolis.

We're headed toward Kristallnacht here in FUSA.

#4 city administrators are encouraging mob violence---you saw it in Portland, Charlottesville, and now Minneapolis.

Also San Jose (in 2016).

Not just "administrators," btw-- it's usually the MAYOR of the city, explicitly telling the world that he will not enforce the law and will not ensure order and public safety in his city.

We're beyond the Shitshow now.
This is anarchy.

#5 Add to the above examples the de facto stand-down orders post-BLM given to police generally by left-wing idiot mayors such as De Blasio in NY and current/recent mayors of Chicago and Baltimore.

Anarchy.

#6 Antifa, a political group consisting of anarchists, socialists and communists along with some liberals and social democrats. They tend to damage property, harass and are violent of anyone who disagrees with them.

Much like Bill Ayers and the SDS of the 1960s. Seems like Antifa qualifies as a terrorist group who's best interests are not the USA.

#7 Not anarchy nor anarchists. Black-booted, brown shirted fascistic enforcement. Going back to the early days, when the “anti-fascists had running battles in the streets with the Nazi lads, Antifa was made up of Soviet-oriented hard communist cadres.

Don't forget Berkeley...and San Jose as noted by Lex.

#9 TW I've seen these maroons up close. Despite their stupid little slogans and random signs, the vast majority really aren't ideological; they're simply lost souls with serious emotional problems and a penchant for violence. Totally disorganized. Chaotic.

So to the extent they have any coherent program at all, it would be much closer to loosely organized anarchists than to disciplined and centrally-directed communist cadres.

Again, most of these people have serious emotional issues.

#10 If they were communists hey could be easily found, tracked, interdicted, disrupted. But they're not. They're a masked blob. A lot harder to quash.

No, this is Civil war.

#12 Mercutio the Republicans being coded red began with the 1980 by ABC. CBS joined them in 1984 and NBC in 1996.

#13 #11 This is anarchy
No, this is Civil war.

Not yet. Panty-fa doesn't represent anything coherent, and neither do their street brawler opponents.

They're both fringe groups of weirdos who want to posture, shout, and crack skulls.

Not really at all like Secessionists and Free Soil types. No coherent ideas or values at all. Just mental patients armed with mace and bike locks and long sticks.

I yield to your personal experience, Lex. But what about those who call them out and point them in the direction of the day?

#15 Here's a comic-- appalling or even pathetic, actually-- example of the borderline mental illness that afflicts Panty-fa "activists".

First the utterly clueless, whitewashed CBS News account of the experience of "Louise Rosealma," a SoCal-based "activist.

Now, explore what everyone except the idiot CBS reporter knows about this nutty individual, aka Moldylocks, real name Emily Marshall. Moldylocks is a "hairy fetish" pr0n "actress" -- and she got punched because she came to the rally with a bottle and M80s, with which she attempted to make IEDs...

She's par for the Panty-fa course. There are even nuttier people there, believe it or not.

See what I mean?
