Not long after dozens of black-hooded protesters were filmed pummeling people on his city’s streets, Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin made clear his disgust for the self-stylized vigilantes.
“Antifa,” he said, is no different than a street gang, and police should start treating protesters in the anti-fascist movement accordingly.
Later that day, legislators in Sacramento advanced resolutions that would treat violent acts committed by antifa movement’s enemies — white nationalists and neo-Nazis — as terrorist acts under state law.
As forces on the extremes of the nation’s ever-widening political divide continue to battle with fists and weapons on the streets of California, law enforcement officials and politicians have started debating whether these extremist groups should be classified as street gangs.

ANTIFA commits the violence, and White Nationalists get sandwiched in with them when it comes to criticism.
Does the Left EVER take ownership of “THEIR PEOPLE” and “THEIR ANTICS” disassociated with anyone else?
Never mind, we all know the answer to that one.
Because long established paramilitary communist front groups that have been around for forty years are only another group of gangbanger.
You can always trust California to exhibit a new level of stupidity.
Antifa = ‘Rats
They are the new ‘Rat KKK.
Brown, our IT Gate tainted State AG, the liberal Cali legislature and our judges will not allow that to happen.
They would put you or I into jail if we dare to call a liberal a snowflake or Tranny!
Debate? Geez I heard when Columbus Day was replaced by indigenous day there was no debate the vote was overwhelmingly passed in less then 1/2 an hour ..what is there to debate against a criminal organization?! Oh I forgot the majority of the ANTIFA gang consist of all their area school teachers!
ABSOLUTELY NOT - terrorists maybe.
I saw a picture on TV last week and I don’t know if someone was putting up a poster or trying to take it down and not sure where but it said:
Marxism will come to the U. S. through anti-Marxism....
I guess the same would be said with “fascism”....
Mayors and police chiefs to governors, we need to get to the bottom of where the stand down orders came from to the police and charge them with everything we can. Including sedition, aiding and abetting terrorism and violence. The blood is also on their hands.
Antifa is the militia arm of the demrats.
Why does the media promote Antifa?
While that is a disingenuous question, you might ask yourself who owns the media? What do the people who own the media want? Are you aware there is no actual legal requirement for accuracy, honesty, or integrity by the media? Media lies are told with virtually absolute impunity — the civil suit costs are too high for any average citizen to pay, unless the lawyers (corrupt to the core) believe their cut of a damage award (50% of total less court fees and costs) is a sure thing.
As ugly a truth as it is, hanging is the only sure cure.
Antifa = democrat street fighters.
Heros in California.
Antifa is the militia of the demrats. Many of the members are hopped up on meth. This is why they hide their faces and tattoos.
Berkeley Mayor Jesse Arreguin made clear his disgust for the self-stylized vigilantes. “Antifa,” he said, is no different than a street gang, and police should start treating protesters in the anti-fascist movement accordingly.
yeah right. he told cops to stand down before. and he said no more demonstrations because antifa is too dangerous (deliberately giving in to their demands? YES he is)
Never ever ever trust a leftist about anything
The fake news was unanimous. NO MORAL EQUIVALENCY! Then they turned on a dime and with one voice exclaimed ANTIFA IS BAD! thereby admitting that Trump (their personification of evil) was right about Charlottesville and they were wrong. Who pulled the plug and why? Does this mean that the police are no longer allied with Antifa?
The people who own Clinton and Obama (whoever they are) had plenty of time to dig in. It’s important to them to have their own man in the Oval Office. They had not anticipated Trump and the deplorables. But they are firmly established enough to be confident they can remove Trump in a soft coup. These are the globalists who would usher in a new age of Feudalism wherein nation states (with the possible exception of Israel) will yield up their sovereignty to global monopolists. Candidate Trump (if not President Trump) spoke as a Nationalist. Nationalists would preserve the nation state as a fire wall against eternal serfdom. There are all manner of conflicts going on in the world but Globalist vs Nationalist is the main event.
In the U.S. Trump, the Alt Right and the deplorables are all the Nationalists have. There are powerful Nationalists abroad however currently led by Putin of Russia. Antifa knows nothing of any of this. I’m guessing that the Globalists viewed Antifa as useful idiots during the election. Now they have outlived their usefulness. Alternatively, Imperial Washington has labeled them terrorists which could mean the Globalists will continue to support them while simultaneously condemning them. We will see. If the police turn on Antifa it will be neutralized. If the police continue to support Antifa it will grow stronger.
It’s not a debate, it’s a mandate.
The problem is by declaring them a dangerous gang or whatever designation they wish, they are in effect, calling their partners in crime, BLM and the CPUSA, dangerous gangs/terrorist groups.
And that would be racist./s
The key word here is “classify”. WHY would you have to classify any one in any way since THEIR ACTIONS CLASSIFY THEM? I’d guess that there are quite a few others that Calif wants to classify and THAT is what they have their eye on. It’s great when you can say a group is X irrespective of their actions.
Trump proved correct,again.
According to some reports, the Mayor of Berkeley was more or less A *MEMBER* of AntiFa.
i agree with you...they’re domestic terrorists, not gang members. they use violence and intimidation for political reasons.
They've already been Declared & Classified as DOMESTIC Terrorists
