Sacramento officials slam antifa for waging 'attacks across this country': 'Call it for what it is. It is not a protest' (another Biden rally)

Sacramento authorities laid blame on antifa for the violence seen during protests last week and vowed to arrest anyone who continues spreading the destruction.

“The Sacramento District Attorney’s Office was targeted last night by a domestic terrorist and anarchist organization - Sacramento Antifa. This attack was planned,” Sacramento County District Attorney Anne Marie Schubert wrote in a statement on Friday.

“These anarchists have waged attacks across this country, in major urban cities, including Portland, Seattle and Denver. Their tactics are rooted in organized violence and terror,” Schubert added.

Rioters vandalized the city on Thursday night in protest of the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Wisconsin, with the district attorney’s office among the buildings that were vandalized. The night of protests first began with advocacy group JUICE taking to the streets, but soon turned violent when a second group of protesters dressed in riot gear appeared.

The Sacramento County Sheriff's Department issued harsh words for the rioters, saying antifa is to blame.

“Last night we saw another night where hundreds participated in, encouraged or celebrated mayhem in our city. Including breaking windows out of storefronts, and in government buildings, trying to set buildings on fire, extensive vandalism, and graffiti, often while yelling profane and racist rants,” Sheriff Scott Jones said Friday.

“Importantly, many who came from other national protests, such as Portland, to try and establish here in Sacramento what they have accomplished in other protests in other cities,” he added. “It is disappointing. There seems to be a lack of college to call it what it is. It is not a protest. It is an attempted insurrection. This is not a protest or demonstration. It is not a call for justice. And it transcends either political party. These people are anarchists, antifa and others, that have no platform, no end goal, and no core beliefs other than to create chaos and undermine many of our social institutions, including police.”

Call it terrorism. That'll work.

Close, but it does have a party affiliation. The Communist DemonicRat party. The DemonicRats own this 100%.

A) I thought AuntieFa was a leaderless conglomeration of disaffected citizens.

B) The poll numbers for Biden MUST be bad if one of the most Liberal cities in America finds it necessary to call AuntieFa out.

What say you, Gropin'? Or you, Kamala? Which side do you come down on?

At its bedrock core, Sacramento is still a redneck cow town.

With the most trees per square mile of any city in America.

Yeah, it's terrorism. The Democrat establishment in Sacramento has its collective panties in a wad? Because it has promulgated:

No bail.
No jail time for misdemeanors.
Massive release of prisoners.
Support for BLM and Antifa.

So NOW you're gonna get tuff? You're gonna arrest rioters, only to release them within 24 hours?

Yeah, that's the ticket. Your Democrat policies are really gonna work NOW.

Well said, but he is wrong in saying that it transcends political parties - the DemocRats are definitely all-in on this chaos, and are likely coordinating and funding at least some of it.

Yeah, Sscaramento officals "care" care NOW because focus groups and polls told them riots and lootings were NOT helping democrats after all.

Turns out citizens noticed violence and lootings ONLY happened in democrat cities where democrat mayors told their police to stand down.

I stole and then modified that, too.

I think I’m becoming a cyber kleptomaniac.

It fits well with "reintarnation -- coming back to life as a hillbilly."

Burn Loot Murder / antifa are shooting people trying to drive around their roadblocks, attacking elderly business owners for trying to defend their property, trying to kill teenagers for putting out fires, shooting people in the street for being White, patriotic or supporting the president.

This rioting is supposedly about "excessive force" used to subdue Blake, a serial girlfriend abuser who was violating a PFA, stole her keys, fought with cops while armed with a knife when they tried to arrest him on a rape warrant.

They're all for "excessive force" and tyranny...as long as they're the ones doing it.

plummeting property values will scare the ........ out of some mayors and councils ..... others not so much but in this case it may well be plummeting property values along west coast and tying to determine which city is next
