“Notice the Left never needs ‘stinking’ permits”

Well, TBH, you don’t need a permit to not shower or bathe.

“I’d be willing to take a beating...”

I’m too old for street fighting; I’ve done enough when I was young, I shouldn’t have to, anymore.

I’m to old to take a beating, too.

So I guess I would just have to kill the bastards. s/

If the police in the urban centers and college towns will not protect non-leftist protesters, we must plan our own security. Patriots, conservatives, and libertarians must throw out those marching with Nazi, KKK, or similar paraphernalia. It is likely they are agents provocateur. To be sure, there is a fine line here. I regard Southern heritage groups as basically a paleo-conservative movement and as such they are our friends. But those with swastikas, SS paraphernalia, Celtic crosses, etc., are not. Tactics are important as well. I saw a YouTube video of fighting between rightists and BLM/Antifa types, and the latter were generally losing. A charge into Antifa, as was done by the Proud Boys in April at Berkeley, caused them to run.

The thugs were ready to go nuts. Security is of up most importance.

[Mozilla]

Who knows what went down. I am always concerned police will stand down.

[Mozilla]

Exactly. That’s why they were backing out.

Celtic crosses?

[MayflowerMadam]

They don’t get permits; why should we?

[JohnyBoy]

>This is better. Antifa will still come out to start some crap and they’ll fight with Black Lives Matter and the people in the area have already seeded the spot with dog poop, so let those two groups fight it out with no right-wingers there.

Not really. They’re bolstered when we chicken out.

[PallMal]

Learned this a long time ago — One of the tactics of the left is to deny that the left exists.

[morphing libertarian]

not understandable except that the authorities don’t want to protect free speech. Every chance;;ed events step in the wrong directions and Berekely has priors. There should;d be conservaive speeches every week end in Berkeley.

[Bodleian_Girl]

But they fight with each other.

That’s the goal here.

In fact, people ought to start planning these all over the country and cancel at the last minute.

Think of the spectacle of Antifa and BLM running their mouths and fighting each other.

[JohnyBoy]

>That’s the goal here.

Their goal is to look baddass and be winners to attract other violent young people to cause. And they’re automatically winners when the other side doesn’t show up.

[Bodleian_Girl]

To Antifa, anyone who shows up is the other side.

So Antifa and BLM open up a can of whoop *ss on each other.

As i understand it. Pelosi got involved. Either wouldnt let them approve permit or had it revoked. They were trying to move the venue but it became too dangerous. Everything that could have gone against them did. These folks are die hard pro trump even though they have paid heavy consequences. I will be with them in DC on 9/16. Look up MOAR.
