    Of no consequence. I proved my point.

    Antifa's abuse of women who support Trump is not fake news.

    So in other words, yes, you are going to continue defending left wing violence.

    And your point would be that it is acceptable to throw human waste at the police if it comes from the party of goodness ??

    No you didn't. The white nationalist scum arm themselves. The antifa arm themselves. Which of them attack the police?

    Can you answer?

    it was an uncontroversial, very simple statement to the effect that racists are the ones being racist.

    Car drivers are the ones driving cars. Not pedestrians, not dogs in a park, not a girl on a bicycle. Drivers.

    Racists are the ones being the racists.

    I suspect you've allowed yourself to become programmed by some fairly corrosive propaganda if you have a need to argue the blatantly obvious. I can tell because it spills out as a rant about lefties (which I'm not) and some TV personality I don't know except for other propagandised peeps calling her Madcow.

    And now the propagandised will have a need to tell me in no uncertain terms that I'm lying.

    Can they resist, though?

    Clearly, we are in the age of fake news and memes. At this point in time, the meme shown in the OP should have raised red flags to anyone over the age of 12. It's up to the individual to do their own research on current events, and that doesn't mean going to your echo chamber website that will never tell you the truth. Anyone who doesn't deserves to wallow in ignorance, but they ain't taking me down with them.

    I'm a Reagan Republican, which has zero to do with Nazism and Fascism.

    I don't like anti-fa because they're violent and they're enemies of the First Amendment.

    Why do you people love Marxists and Antifa? You'll do anything to smear anyone who speaks out against it. There, you needed balance.

    Anti-fas beat up peaceful conservative protestors in California on 8/27/17.

    It happens all the time. Waving an American flag in front of anti-fa is like waving a red cape in front of a bull. Expect to get beaten with metal pipes, chains, bottles, etc. And some urine thrown in your face is a possibility. Then you'll see the masked cowards run away.

    Once normal, main stream American's get a gut full of their antics, Antifa will get clubbed like the baby seals they are by average law abiding citizens. I've already said it once today, Antifa is nothing more than "Revenge of the Nerds".

    You see, the biggest problem with that stupid ass study you posted is what it considered an act of right wing terrorism or Islamic terrorism. For example. The study doesn't include cases like the Fort Hood shooting as an example of Islamic terrorism but rather "work place violence" whereas some random guy who was going to get arrested had a shoot out with the cops is considered an example of right wing terrorism because the guy said something mean about black people on Facebook one time. Cops get shot at by some hood rat every day in Chicago but you don't see the study classify all of those as left wing terrorism.

    And the study even admits that why there may have been more cases of what they cosider right wing terrorism the fact is that Islamic terrorism has killed more.

    Oh, oh! I'm not a Lefty but can I take a crack at that question?

    Is the answer TotallyFa is a peaceful movement because it stencils "No Hate" and cute little animals on its assault gear???

    Well, that's basically the best reason to dislike that rather ill thought out movement.

    Bulls can't see the colour red, so whether or not the cape is red is irrelevant. It's the movement that causes a reaction.

    Uhh. Why did you post the fake news "study" if it has nothing to do with the thread?
