What started as a peaceful Justice for George Floyd protest in Seattle turned violent thanks to fringe Progressive and Antifa activists. And their abhorrent behavior is being defended by bad-faith voices, pretending we’re under assault by white supremacists. Or, even worse, peaceful protesters who are fine with the destruction.
Americans have the right to peacefully assemble. This is beyond question. What folks don’t have the right to do is destroy property, assault officers, disrupt freeway traffic, or steal police weapons.
Yet portions of Seattle were trashed, burned, and destroyed thanks to a large group of Antifa members, anarchists, and their enablers.
But one black protester who was obviously there to protests peacefully shamed one Antifa member and in some way, he shows him what America is all about.
Video below: (can't copy the link the video is uploaded directly on the site)
Antifa members are privileged, angry white millennials — and local anarchists have consistently co-opted peaceful protests for their own political agenda. They do it almost every May Day. Some are local to Seattle, some from around Washington, and some based in Oregon. These monsters don’t care about George Floyd. You think Antifa is above taking advantage of a George Floyd protest in Seattle? They’re simply exploiting national anger to push their anti-capitalist and anti-police agenda.
But Antifa and anarchists have their defenders and enablers.
We need more brave people like the young man in the video to face these terrorists.
Seattle is under mandatory curfew orders amid violent downtown protests that started as a peaceful rally over the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis police custody. Crowds are ordered to evacuate the downtown corridor immediately.
Several Seattle police and city transit vehicles were set on fire, along with the property damage and looting of dozens of downtown businesses.
Please share this article wherever you can. It is the only way we can work around their censorship and ensure people receive news about issues that the mainstream media suppress.
Don’t want ANTIFA trashing your city? Vote Republican. ANTIFA is the militant wing of the RAT party which is why their mayhem is ignored in RAT controlled cities.
80 million is peanuts these days,a couple of grandkids went to a high school that cost 190 million

But this black ‘protester’ will continue to vote for democrats who then fund antifa to destroy that same black man’s community.
Do you think he will ever learn that he personally has voted for and funded through his tax dollars the same people who are now destroying his community?

There should be a way to disable all cell phone communication in a 5 mile radius.
We need to careful in identifying the enemy here. Antifa is obviously one. But there are other groups as well. I know for a fact the BLM organizers called for violence. I suspect there are other groups as well
Plenty of hollyweird assclowns donating to the defense funds for these POS thieves/vandals.
So who are the “bad faith voices” defending Antifa? The article is just opinion.
It could be.
HOWEVER,
1. everyone is filming everything. note the people on the CNN atlanta sign with their cameras.
2. the rest of the street doesnt look bashed in so it was a peaceful process up until that point
I saw another instance of blacks protecting target.
But yes, it could be staged
The riots are a criminal conspiracy and their leaders and funders should be prosecuted under RICO.
This is not politics—this is criminal activity.
I saw a black guy speaking to a crowd of protesters in some city a day ago. He had on a t-shirt that read “Kill Your Master”. I was wondering who his “Master” was and if he thought it was the year 1860.
And while you are having that day dream, they are conferring with their court appointed lawyer about bail...
Book it — they get arrested, they will have either a PD that is just as good as the $400/hour lawyer you’ll pay for if you ever get arrested OR if it is high profile enough, they’ll get the lawyer that moonlights pro bono for “civil rights cases” and might even have the author of the law book the prosecutor used in law school to represent them.
You just need a cop like Hank Voight (Chicago PD) to have a chat with him before the lawyer shows up. ;-)
They ALWAYS deny the fact that violent antifa members are liberal. They normally lie and say Antifa is anarchists, so they’re not really liberal. Now they are lying and saying violent liberal rioters joining with BLM are white supremacists ... and thus the liberal violence can be blamed on conservatives.
