    It seems America is already growing tired of antifa terrorizing their cities and citizenry. I fully support labeling them as a terrorist group. They have been tied to destruction of public and private property, countless assaults and several police deaths. It's time to nip this one in the bud.

    America is tired of the radical left in general. Most folks want to live in peace and be left the hell alone. All this turmoil is being stirred up by liberals who have also hijacked the Democratic party. This is why dems cannot even win dog catcher in a local race anymore.

    America is speaking but the US Commission on Civil Rights doesn't seem to agree with the people or our Constitution's Equal protection under the law clause. The democrat led commission not surprisingly refused to condemn antifa's violence.

    This is another good example of bias and the left's double standard.

    It officially takes away their just hero status.

    P.S. I was in a small city in Oregon this morning. I mentioned Antifa to them. They had no idea what I was talking about.

    Doesn't the FBI identify terrorist groups? Since when is this a matter of popular opinion?

    If they qualify as a terrorist group, label them as such. But I would imagine there is actual criteria for something like this and not just the popular mental masturbation of the nutty right.

    Who gets the petition when they're done?

    You would label a group a terrorist group so people won't like them?

    Hey, can we declare all fundamentalist churches terrorists organizations? I could probably get millions of signatures for that.

    I'd nominate Westboro Baptist for that list.

    In fact there are some very scary churches out there - Warriors for Christ mentality. They want to help bring about the biblical Armageddon "so Christ will return". They want to start WWIII - a holy war with Islam. Steve Bannon has some close ties with these types and has given warriors for Jesus crap type of speeches. I strongly suspect he is one of them.

    Hint: Fundamentalists believe Jews are damned. They're all going to hell.

    We had a problem with a few similar "churches" back in the day, like Warriors.

    Nutters, the lot.

    Absolutely no different from Heavens Gate, the Manson Family, or Islamists.

    Death-Cults.

    Antifa is not being petitioned for the list because of their beliefs, but because of their actions.

    Interesting choice of pronouns.
    The purpose is to expose groups that were formed to be bipartisan.

    How many votes are required to label a group terrorist? And does it work on individuals?

    They're disgusting, but are they violent?

    So called "hate speech" does NOT = violence or terrorist intent.

    I'll look for links, but I could have sworn there were instances of monkey-like throwing of things & such.
