It is good to see the layout and read this report. However, no way would I participate in any event with anyone displaying a nazi flag or hating Israel or Jews or skin colors.

I’d have my own separate protest. Thise others are condemned by God.

Ah, I read that the other day. It didn’t tell me much about the true nature of the non-leftist participants. (I don’t say that as a criticism, just an observation.)

Thanks for that etymology.

That explains the root of the origin, but not how the Left and the Media intend it to be used, IMO.

Well, sure. The Left counts on ignorance. Controlling language is a way to control thought.

This will be a test for the Attorney General. Lol, if he finds for the Communists aka Antifa, then I know that our nation is doomed.

I am confronted with this issue right now. They are having a Freedom of Speech rally in Boston. I would consider going under normal circumstances, but I won’t.

If I were to go, I fully expect them to be infiltrated by leftists posing as an unsavory element to foment violence, and violence to ensue. That is a guarantee, in full complicity with media and politicians.

This is how they are stifling freedom of speech. Conservatives disagree vehemently with the messages of leftists, but we universally agree they have the right to protest if done legally. That is not reciprocated left to right in any way whatsoever.

Not the way the media and the left (I know, redundant) portray us.

Yes, but I was telling the truth. They are conducting a coverup.

Of all the things about leftists, it is their appropriation (done with deliberation, forethought, and malice) of language.

They understand the use of it as a battlefield which we cede to them, unfortunately.

Yes, the local newspaper's website disingenuously ran with headlines stating; " 3 killed due to violent protest" and right directly underneath that they had a headline stating 2 State Troopers killed in crash.

Pure Fake News.

Maybe so, but they don't have the right to slander and demonize us, unless we let them. We need to push back and expose them.

No, call the Howie Carr show and speak to millions instead. Urge them to speak out.

Just a hunch, but I don’t think we’ll be seeing any of these rallies taking place in states with Republican governors.

Except maybe Ohio. Kasich does not have the stones to pull the trigger on “Kent State 2.0”.

I would be wary of attending, as clearly in the case of Charlottesville, city and state aided and abetted the Communists. Too easy to become fodder for a Bolshevik Beatdown while the cops watch. I’d recommend a day at the range instead, :D

All those videos have been lost. Somebody forgot to put film in the cameras or someone opened the darkroom door while the film was being processed.

Were these police incompetent or did McAwful order them to allow trouble to brew? Sounds like something the Justice Department should look into.

Has anyone actually used a darkroom since 1996?

Yeah...good idea. Howie Carr is alright by me.

The problem with pushing back and exposing them is that it does absolutely no good, and this boils down again to the media being in the pocket of the far left in America.

I agree with you completely it is a galling proposition, but I have no idea how to counter that. Slander and Demonize are two key tools in the Leftist toolbox.

I guess for me, it is that quote attributed to Winston Churchill “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on” is as true as it gets, and by that time, people aren’t in the least bit interested in the truth. If it is on the news, it is true...and this is true for many, many people still.

Punk McAwful needs to be prosecuted for this.
