Exactly. Antifa says they will stop once others have their freedom of speech taken away. Dangerous times we live in.

Thugs think hurting people and destroying public and private property is fun.
I'm sure the Antifa socialist drivel is just an excuse for many.
I'm equally sure that who is paid and who is not paid to act as low level terrorists is a mixed bag.

There are really so few Antifa (terrorists) at this point. The majority of regular patriotic citizens still sit back and take it all in expressing their discontent and concern, then they go about their own daily routine until the next news cycle. Suppose they gave a war and no one came. Suppose the silent majority got really tired and fed up with Antifa and all these other destructive demonstrators and actually became the majority. You get what you sow. That's just a combat veterans opinion, I could be wrong. Remember, we're really dangerous people.

I find it interesting where I live now, these terrorists wouldn't even think of doing a protest here. The community would run them out before they got started. Some of them might actually disappear permanently. I agree with the left that veterans are dangerous people and Antifa and other lefties know it, so why deny it.

Good luck. I think I am lucky that I have a common name. Hard to find me on the internet cause so many people have my name.

I would like to see some of those masks ripped off. Wouldn't mind asking a few questions just to see what the average IQ is among these "protestors".

Antifa, or as I call them PRO-fa, chanted at Berkeley this weekend: "No Trump, No wall, No United States at all".

No other possibility exists but that they are treasonous terrorists. They are broadcasting, also, the platform of the democrat party.

AntiFa is the epitome of 2 key Orwellian "1984" concepts: Newspeak & Doublethink.

Newspeak: Newspeak is "politically correct" speech taken to its maximum extent. Newspeak is based on standard English, but all words describing "unorthodox" political ideas have been removed. In addition, there was an attempt to remove the overall number of words in general, to limit the range of ideas that could be expressed.

Doublethink: The power to hold two completely contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accept both of them.

Instead of calling themselves "Anti-Fascists" they shortened their name to "AntiFa" thus enabling a confusion of what the organization really stands for (newspeak). As for doublethink, they hold in the minds that they are fighting fascists even though their fascist mentality makes them fascists in and of themselves. They are such goodthinkers that they will blackwhite the party.

Welcome to Oceania!

Violence in self-defense is justified. These "antifa" freaks will only become more bold until such time as they are put down with force. Never expect rational thought from a screaming mob. Once they overflow into more rural (i.e., "red counties") expect the people who live there to fight back! I for one, will NOT be a victim. Any screaming lunatic running in my direction with a nail-embedded baseball bat is going to get a 170-gr bullet in his chest from my .30-30 Winchester. The same goes for any of these animals trying to burn down or loot my home with me in it. I WILL NOT retreat.

I was pretty sure what you meant. Thanks for clarifying.

My Great-Grandmother used to say:
"Idle hands are tools of the devil." AND: "An idle mind is the devil's playground."
Evil actions and boredom go hand-in-hand.

If these children were familiar with the concept of working toward values of their own to have and keep it would be difficult for the likes of Soros to purchase their time.

Agreed Blarman. I should have said only in defense. No initiation of force.

I am always suspicious of protestors that don't have a clear message or goal. They are just out looking to hurt people.

Yes. They are using brown shirt tactics to fight fascism. Doesn't make sense.

A CNN headline about Antifa is downright Orwellian Newspeak: "Antifa Seeks Peace Through Violence" (!!!!). Their rationale is they must stop hateful speech by any means necessary.

When I was a child, I learned the simple phrase "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." We're dealing with a generation that's been brainwashed into the idea that words cause physical injury. I'm not talking about psychological hurt, or inciting to violence, but real personal damage as dangerous as being hit with a club!

Antifa seeks to terrorize anyone who wants to say anything with which they disagree, by promising real physical injury on the offenders. That is a terrorist group without a doubt.

It is always wrong to initiate violence! Anyone who initiates violence is a terrorist and should be arrested and jailed. No exceptions!

According to what me dino has heard and read, at least the core leadership of Antifa and previous protest groups such as Occupy Wall Street are being paid to create chaos by socialist globalists.
The name, George Soros, always crops up as chief among the hard cash enablers.
The convoluted for completely twisted Antifa anti-fascist fascists are the same kind of controlled mob rabble that our dear Comrade Lenin once called "useful idiots."
Especially useful are the unpaid idiot joiners who can't wait to put on masks and start swinging clubs,

I can't really agree with the "violence may be justified" part. We have a right to voice our opinion - no matter how stupid or ignorant. We don't have a right to violence or the initiation of force, however. These idiots cross that very important line. And once that line has been crossed, they deserve no protection.

Hmmm, Antifa, meaning Anti-Fascist. How sweet. Just like that pleasant moniker "Democratic Peoples Republic of North Korea". Sweeeeet. Oh wait...

Wouldn't you like to be there and just start yanking off masks and taking pictures?

Weimar Republic ring a bell?

Antifa SHOULD stand for: Anti-First Amendment! They are not for "equality & free speech" at all - they are a domestic terrorist organization! "Violence may be justified or even necessary" - really? When? So do you say the same for KKK, white supremacist groups, as well?

ERIC HOFFER: "The less justified a man is in claiming excellence for his own self, the more ready he is to claim all excellence for his nation, his religion, his race or his holy cause. ....
A man is likely to mind his own business when it is worth minding. When it is not, he takes his mind off his own meaningless affairs by minding other people's business."

Especially when you don't have a job and George Soros will pay for your black hoods and give you money.

I think the reason they all wear masks is that the core organizers want this to look grass roots and local and they don't want to be recognized. Also the snowflakes are emboldened when in a mob and with their faces covered......does this seem familiar.....what other organization covers its faces......the Klu Klux Klan maybe!!!??? I mean, they are an earlier Democrat organization, so it could be that this later iteration is using similar tactics..

There name suggests they are anti fascist, but there actions of force prove otherwise. They are the fascists in my opinion.

For me, it's been a "going Galt in place" so far. I no longer exist on the internet, except here. I stopped spending on everything except necessities and niceties to please my loved ones - constantly saving money. No debt, etc... Should the time come to vanish, I'll do that.

It is shocking to me how willing people are to give up freedom. With the technology that exists today I don't know where we can go Galt and be safe.

Some are "useful idiots". The money and organization behind this are clearly trying to create as much violence in the streets as possible.
