Antifa Protester Yvette Felarca Says Violence Against The Far-Right Is ‘Not A Crime’
dailycaller.com ^ | 8/18/2017 | Ian Miles Cheong

Yvette Felarca, the Berkeley area school teacher and militant left-wing protester responsible for organizing the riot at the University of California, Berkeley in February 2017, claims that violence against the far-right is “not a crime.”

Felarca, who belongs to “By Any Means Necessary,” a far-left group, is currently facing assault charges after she was caught on video assaulting a white supremacist during a July 2016 rally in Sacramento, Cali.

The school teacher and her compatriots engaged in violent clashes against members of the far-right Traditional Worker’s Party, which had a permit to march in the city. The violence between the two groups resulted in a number of assaults and multiple stabbings. In July 2017, police charged Felarca with “assault by means of force likely to inflict great bodily injury, participating in a riot, and inciting a riot.”

As reported by Huffington Post on Wednesday during her arraignment, Felarca described her actions as a form of self-defense, and therefore “not a crime.”

Antifa posted this on their Facebook page and are being blasted in comments for it. It seems many of their supporters did not realize they were against capitalists, classical liberals, and the Constitution. I guess some of their useful idiots are not happy with this message:

It seems to be the case that radical leftists believe that the majority of people actually support them and their goals, but that they are too intimidated by the regime to speak up. And if the radical leftists pave the way by bravely attacking the tools of the regime, the oppressed people will rise up in glorious revolution against the regime.

I have a relative who supports the extreme left--this is what this relative says. I've seen the belief expressed in other places, as well.

Good idea, but it probably wouldn’t work. If the press can turn “free speech” into “Extreme Right Wing, Racist, White Supremacist” AntiCom doesn’t stand a chance.

Actually, it does.

It does so by taking away the MSM's ability to define what we are for (in their twisted minds) by first defining what we are against.

What are they going to do or say when AntiCom rallies pop up all over the country?

Are they going to call them Fascist?

Maybe.

But this re-branding must include being Anti-Fascist etc as well.

It takes away their argument and re-directs our efforts to expose these commie nuts.

And that includes the MSM.

Agreed. The Left defines anyone who supports our Constitutional Government (a Republic), and stands for America First as the “Far Right”. Hence they have aligned themselves as true Fascists, while a the same time calling themselves Anti-Fascists. In their minds the end justifies the means. The end being a Socialist Dictatorship, with the Intelligentsia of the Left in control

The groups are all “Socialist”, wearing different masks, attempting to bring about the same conditions that existed in the Weimar Republic, before Hitler took control.

Never forget that while they CLAIM that Antifa means

ANTI FAscist

what it REALLY means is

ANTI First Amendment!

Never forget:

ANTIFA ≠ ANTI FAscist

ANTIFA = >ANTI First Amendment!

In their minds BLM’s killing cops is all right and m*slims killing humans is all right. First they dehumanize the enemy. Then they incite followers to kill the enemy. Then they deny all involvement.

I hope you’re right, but the media has been trying to define us for a long time and in their world, they think they’ve been successful. Pro abortion has become pro choice, while anti abortion has become anti choice. But I think they’ve been less successful here recently. Before widespread alternative news sources, President Trump would have been long-gone by now. According to them, everything that he says is a lie and they repeat this several times on the evening news, but fewer Americans are believing them.

They just did so in Boston. The Free Speech Rally was instigated by the same group controlling the Anti-Fascists and the Neo-Nazis. The MSM defines Conservatives as racists. Hence any act of violence against anything resembling conservative speech, or thought is considered correct and just.

The MSM is in full out assault of anything conservative, and is labeling it as Fascist, Racist, and evil. The hope is the American public will get upset and turn on Trump, and anyone conservative.

The MSM controls the audio, they control the video, and most of the sources of news and commentary. They are flooding the airways with “fake news” and covering their compliance with the Left in trying to destroy our American Republic.

The real challenge is educating these idiots on the left that there aren’t just two choices.

Many of these morons actually think the only choices available are either Communism or Fascism. And since Hitler was a Fascist and we fought against Hitler while allied with the Communist in the USSR, Hitler=Fascism=Bad, therefore (in their minds) USSR=Communism=Good.

At the same time they have been told/indoctrinated to think that the USA=Imperialism=Slavery=Bad.

What other conclusion would we expect from a simple minded person?

So by her logic it’s OK for me to punch everyone I see wearing a Che’ t-shirt or anything promoting Communism? Cool, thanks!!!

I’m always amazed that Communists get a pass, while Nazis and Fascists are the scum of the earth, even though more have died at the hands of the former than at the hands of the latter. Wearing a Che shirt is fine, but a Hitler shirt is unthinkable. Both are vile and evil. Two groups of thugs show up at a rally with clubs, bats and shields, yet only one group is condemned and saying that they are both wrong is considered blasphemy.

And now we have the end goal. Get rid of the Constitution.

That's the reason for the demonetization of the Founding Fathers. If they're evil, that invalidates any of their works, including, but not limited to, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

Many in government, and most on the left, see the Constitution as a hindrance to their ability to usher in the "Great Age for Humanity." Remember Obama complaining that the Constitution was a document of "negative rights," limiting the "rights" of the government, and what government was allowed to do. This is frighting, but it's the mindset of the left. The Declaration of Independence is something they actively hate and try to undermine, because it defines citizens and a government responsible to them, as opposed to rulers.

Never mind that every time they've tried it in the past has been a disaster for humanity. That's the appeal of being a leftist. "It's not that your ideas are wrong, it's that every time someone before you tried implementing their plans, they just weren't smart enough. But this time, you can do it."

You should really look at antifa Boston’s facebook page.

Later on, they go to say that America doesn’t have the right to exist.

I am wondering if this meets the legal definition of sedition.

“Death by Government”

A concept that most Libtards have no clue about.

You want the numbers?

The history?

Go here,

But as Stalin said, “A Single Death is a Tragedy; a Million Deaths is a Statistic”

Sacramento is not the bay area. The local sheriff Scott Jones routinely issues CCW permits.
