“involved in a violent clash...” = attacked by ANTIFA.

I was reading this thread hoping I wasn't the only one who noticed that.

They should be applauded for their bravery. We did not start this war the marxists did but make no mistake we are at war.

This.

Also, the Antifas are scared to death of the Proud Boys. They take an ass-whoopin' just about every time.

Where did you hear that they were advertised negatively?

Even The Nation lauds the SPLC as a de facto “hidden” CIA asset for dissemination of propaganda used to forment, very effectively, civil unrest - furthering the democrat brand

...the Democrat Party has been in control of the media and Law Enforcement Agencies for a while. If you don’t believe that...

Oh, I don't just believe it. I know it.

Proud Boys are just a slightly edgy conservative group, maybe with Libertarian streaks.

They are not Nazis by any stretch of the imagination.

Just go into the address field and type whatever screen name you want there, it will remain a reply to the same post. Nothing magic about it. People do it all the time to leave a snarky reply without alerting the recipient here, particularly on the religion forum.

"US security officials have classified the left-wing group Antifa as "domestic terrorists", confidential documents have revealed."

Which "security officials"? What "confidential documents"? Given what I've seen, fedgov has done nothing to identify and neutralize these miscreants. Why haven't these animals been rounded up and arrested en masse at the numerous street confrontations where they've appeared?

It's because fedgov supports them, that's why.

You ask me, Antifa is nothing more than a bunch of blanket sucking babies with an attitude, who will be wiped out in a heartbeat when CWII begins.

I’m referencing the Left’s attitude/reaction.

Essentially, if I knew nothing else: knowing how strongly the Nothing-Remains-of-the-old-Far-Left-is-Extreme-to-Us-Anymore Left is opposed to something makes me less likely to see them negatively as those Leftists do.

Likewise, whatever the whackadoodle Left approves of garners my suspicions for that reason alone.

That isn’t the same as saying I advocate knowing nothing beyond what the likes of DNC types approve of or disapprove of, even a broken clock meant to keep military time can be right once a day, but it does mean I find their value judgments so fundamentally flawed that I react accordingly.

Yep. I know a couple. Although I’ve never asked if they post, they have mentioned freerepublic.com in our discussions.

The wife and I discussed Christmas tonight. I told her, the only thing I want under the tree is more ammo.

The FIB is an extremist group.

It appears the FBI is still controlled by bad actors.

Completely.

If it comes from a “police official” in Washington state, head the other way. The police chief of Seattle is almost useless (remember the Communist-planned WTO riots of 2000, etc?) and downtown Seattle Antifa riots?

This is some guy from Vancouver, Washington. Didn’t he just leak confidential information or was it disinformation on the part of the FBI or him?

If Antifa is not declared an “extremist group” by the FBI or So. Poverty Law Center, then you know the fix is in against only “right” organizations.

We don’t need violent extremists groups, period, but we have them and they are not going away. The best we can do is to provide documentation on who they really are and let the police handle them when violence occurs (not really).

The Guardian wrote it up. The piece is useful, though, because it includes some quotes from the agencies and individuals.

FBI now classifies far-right Proud Boys as ‘extremist group’, documents say
