Be sure to take pictures of all the things the media will not take pictures of.

This is VICE. If they’re not writing about tranny midget pop singers in Thailand, then they’re writing this BS.

Vice did a lot of in depth coverage around the Charlottesville protest, so they have credibility on this issue. I wouldn't dismiss their reporting on VA Antifa so easily.

I guess they’ll stick to the standard, cowardly mob attacks on unarmed individuals?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
True.
I think I figured out why the Antifa’s are marching with the 2nd Ammendment rights protesters. With the violence Antifa has enacted, the police were separating the two groups to prevent Antifa thugs from “cowardly mob attacks on unarmed individuals.” So now the only way Antifas can get close enough to 2nd Amm protesters is to march beside them.

I keep reading a portion of Antifa’s are going to put on red MAGA hats and will be filmed attacking “innocent” Antifas and the Antifas then get attack actual 2nd Amm protesters in fake “self defense”.

"Smart people know that ANTIFA is embedding themselves among the 2A supporters to create a False Flag. That's why Gov Northam (KKK-VA) has already declared a state of emergency."

BUMP

Crenshaw supports two anti 2nd amendment issues-TAPS, & Red Flag laws. He is also anti 1st amendment. He supports restrictions on free speech.

The picture of Crenshaw with Moms Demand Action against Guns was taken mid August, 2019.

At least I am on record as warning Texans against voting for Dan Crenshaw.

Well the alternative is what? A Democrat? A Democrat would be far worse don’t you think?

Antifa is *not* a top-down, centrally controlled organization. It is a loose knit group of leftists anarchists who are very confused about history and who did what to whom.
The vary a lot in motivations and belief structure.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Antifa *is* a centrally controlled organization that functions as the militia/army for the Deep State.

Antifa is pretending to support the 2nd amendment so they can march next to actual 2A protesters in order to stage a riot for the cameras.

A portion of the Antifa’s will disguise themselves as 2A supporters by wearing MAGA hats or other pro Trump markers. This group will be filmed violently attacking “sweet little innocent Antifa’s” marching beside them. The Antifa’s will then attack 2A protesters in FAKE self-defense. At that point the Governor will take drastic crack down measures and he won’t be targeting Antifas, who will be portrayed as victims.

The propaganda now on the airwaves is bizarre; the message they are pushing is that it’s not safe for conservatives to attend.

Some of it strangely asserted that if conservatives were “stupid enough” to attend the protest, they should wear kevlar flak vests under their clothing and stressed they must NOT stop for food or water in surrounding businesses. That last part struck me as particularly strange - I think they want to optics of “scary looking conservatives” on file (LOOK! THEY CAME DRESSED TO RIOT!) and they didn’t want protesters to talk to proprieters because they were too “normal” and don’t match the MAGA image the media wants. However, the Antifa’s wearing MAGA hats will visit local shops and other businesses and act out in bigoted, obnoxious ways to further the false impression of MAGA hat wearing people

The Social Media and the Main Stream Media are trying to frighten 2nd Amendment protesters out of attending the protest - they want us to cower.

*** Well the alternative is what? A Democrat? A Democrat would be far worse don’t you think? ***

The alternative in the primary was Kevin Roberts. Crenshaw placed 2nd. He only beat 3rd runner up Kathleen Wall by 155 votes.

He bested Roberts in the Primary Run off.

I don’t find a lot of difference in Dem’s & Repub’s. I think a lot of their Uniparty positions are the same.

“Still, and I’ve said this before, in this sort of fight you sometimes find yourself sharing a foxhole with the unlikeliest of people...”

What’s that story about the foolish woman agreeing to carry a viper across a river?

"It’s a trap, VCDL! Don’t fall for it."

You're not the first to warn them. They seem hell-bent on walking right into it though.

If they had any sense AT ALL they would stay home and then sue the **** out of the Governor for deprivation of rights under color of law, and maybe turn his own media against him.

But hey... I don't know any of them personally. All we can do is try to warn them here in cyberspace that they're being set up and played for chumps, until we get tired of our own redundancy.

OK so you meant the primary. And not the general election. Fact is when the general election comes I know who I am going to vote for. Sure as hell wont be a Democrat.

Sweet! No way we can be defeated now that we have a lock on the pirate vote.

And “milkshakes” are caustic mixes of solutions meant to burn the skin and eyes. Nothing innocuous about them.
