Andy Ngô reacts to becoming Antifa target, leaving US: 'Not safe anymore for me'
Fox News ^ | April 5, 2021 | Stephanie Pagones

He might be the most hated man in the room depending on where he goes, but Andy Ngô has undoubtedly amassed a tremendous following for his experience covering the ins and outs of Antifa.

The born-and-raised Portlander and second-generation Vietnamese American, a conservative journalist who serves as the editor-at-large of The Post Millenial, is now a New York Times bestselling author thanks to his recently published tome, "Unmasked: Inside Antifa’s Radical Plan to Destroy Democracy."

In "Unmasked," Ngô explores not only the history of Antifa both in and outside the United States, but also his own experiences covering what he describes as an organized community of radical, left-wing anarchists.

Opponents tried to stop the book from being published, Ngô, 33, wrote on Twitter. Even when it was released, some took issue with the book being sold in stores, according to reports. Portland's famed shop Powell's Books opted not to sell the work after union employees protested Ngô "and everything he represents," reports stated.

Over the course of years, Ngô has endured physical attacks from people in crowds while covering Antifa or radical events, and even unwanted visitors at his and his parents’ homes, Ngô wrote in his book.

But everything came to a head earlier this year when Ngô left the country amid threats of violence and "an escalation of safety concerns," he told Fox News.

"It was just not safe anymore for me. I had already been on borrowed time," he said when reached by phone.

Ngô grew to have a keen interest in Antifa following the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, he said.

He doesn’t need to leave the US. The US left him.

He needs to get the hell out of Portland and move to the US.

Andy should dress up like ANTIFA. Then he will join the “most protected status” of those who need daily protection from Patriots by police and courts.

He should move to Wyoming or Idaho. You get to defend yourself there.

I was camping in Wyoming near Fort Bridger and a Wyoming Trooper drove up as we were shooting at cans and stuff. He asked us what guns we had and showed us the new Glock that he’d just gotten. He really liked it. Lol.

Until AntiFa goons who act up start getting shot by those whose lives, persons and property they threaten we should expect them to move closer to the jack booted murderers they’ve always been at heart.

“Violence works.”

Especially when there is no law enforcement.

And we wonder why,among many other things,that there wasn’t a court in the nation willing to stop the theft in 2020. Judges have families too!

Try smacking one of these d'bags in the face and see how quickly law enforcement reacts.

Correct. I think some Americans seem to be in an unhealthy denial with respect to the state of the culture war. But, it’s absolutely clear that America is deteriorating at at rate that would have been unimaginable just a decade ago.

When Reagan said that freedom and liberty were only a generation away from extinction, many dismissed it as the hyperbolic rantings of a histrionic actor. Turns out he may have been too charitable in his time-frame.

Shooting at cans in Massachusetts can get you ten years at a maximum security prison. And possession of the firearm used can get you another ten years.

I very much enjoyed seeing that douchebag Antifa criminal who was trying to scale some corporate headquarters to vandalize it, slipped and fell maybe 15-20 feet onto a concrete sidewalk, shattering his hip.

More of them need to shatter a lot more.

Worse yet is when government and law enforcement protect antifa and it’s actions. Since antifa is the militant wing of the democrat party and the dems now control vast swaths of the government, nothing serious will happen to them.
