    I find your opinions more often than not crazier than a June bug. So far out of the realm of any type of earthen logic I more than once wondered if your opinions could be proof of extraterrestrial life.

    In other words.. What on God's green earth are you trying to say man! Your transparent apologism for the violent left is disturbing. I'm conservative and I'll denounce, trample on any white supremicist neo nahtze opinion that arises. Fast as a heart beat. But lefties refuse to denounce antifa? Socialists. Not welcome

    Whatever want to say, however they want to say it -- so long as they harm no one and/or do not place someone in a condition of clear, present and immediate danger, they are fully within their rights.

    Neither side are true brown shirts. Those people are all dead

    But both sides are using the tactics of the brown shirts

    And frankly antifa is using it even more violently than the neo nazis are

    Yes, and they do not deserve to be attacked by anyone for that, but at the same time it is hard to call their protest peaceful when it is a message of hate like that.

    Antifa is not left wing. Refer to my earlier posts which show that its origins are from the European right wing.

    "Peaceful" refers to the presentation, not the message.
    I suspect you know this.

    Antifa aren't Brown Shirts but the Black Shirts, the SS of the extreme radical left, the militant arm of the Democrat party.

    They wear uniforms today, black shirts, black hoodies, those with money wear black helmets, they carry clubs ready for combat and wear back packs full of mace, pepper spray and frozen water bottles.The frozen water bottles... it was Antifa who came up using frozen water bottles attacking cops and the SOS in California during the 1990's.

    They been around for some time. You saw them every May 1st rallies, you saw them at every pro illegal alien rally wearing bandannas hiding their faces. They are at every anti capitalist riots smashing windows and attacking the police.

    Antifa hate the cops more than BLM. Antifa hates all authority because Antifa are anarchist, Marxist-anarchist.

    We saw over the weekend during the "Patriot Prayor" rally in Seattle when Seattle P.D. weren't ordered by the liberal Mayor to stand down but held their ground and prevented Antifa from attacking the Patriot Prayor rally so what did Antifa do ? They attacked the police.

    Neither the European left nor the European right claim ownership to Fascism.
    Today.

    In it's heyday, it was a left wing movement. Socialists.

    Today, it is whatever your political rivals are. They are fascists, you are not.



    Antifa, look like Occupy Wall Street does politics.
    Go there to meet massive idiots.

    Are they fascists? Most likely they are. But that isn't saying so much as the core of fascism is very mainstream.

    What they really are is just a bunch of angry young people. Looking to get some confrontation perhaps.

    Oh Soros invests in lawyers too. He plays the game on all fronts.

    The Antifadas have it up on their site with attacking Trump Supporters. Note.....that's not specifying the Cluckers or Neo Nazis. Just says Trump supporters.

    You failed the freedom of speech test, too, in that case. I am perfectly within my rights to not have or express an opinion on anything but you'd like to thought police me into a corner and if I won't go your recourse is supposition and inside that supposition? Oh, the need to somehow find me guilty of apologising for violence.

    A few nazi bashers are definitely much worse than a nazi state, which occurs in a viral nanosecond when dozy pricks spend too much time dazzled by the lurid attractions of the internet's darkest corners.

    Yes, definitely look at the squirrel.

    You lost me on that post

    But it sounds like the are defending Antifa

    We dont have to choose between neo nazi's of which there are very few in my opinion or Antifa anarchists which appear to be more numerous

    Both should be rejected

    The American Taliban is anti Trump.

    The fake news media are the communication branch of the American Taliban.

    If the President were to be President Cruz today the American Taliban would be anti Cruz.

    George Soros and the DNC helps to finance the American Taliban.
