The left believes they have a right be violent.

Don Lemon, Chris Cuomo, and CNN agree.

PS. Does anyone perceive Antifa as an African-American organization?

Not really. I perceive them as equal opportunity fascists.

“Does anyone perceive Antifa as an African-American organization?”

No, Antifa is a bunch of self-hating white cry-babies who periodically leave their Mom’s basements, put on black masks and break stuff for no particular reason.

the “fa” in Antifa stands for “First Amendment”.

They always have. The National Socialists in Germany believed that the purity of the Aryan race was so important, that killing all the Jews was just good common sense.

The Left today is no different.

Wow. He IS as dumb as Trump claimed.

So Because they call themselves “anti-fascist”, then that’s what they are? Real genius here, folks.

I can’t completely agree. They used to blame groups/concepts.

Our domestic enemies including Big Media now defend their violence by lying, “Trump started it!”

“CNN’s Don Lemon... defend Antifa”fighting racist fascists”.
ME TOO. I am sick of one way Racism where being White is used to define a Racist while the opposite is reality a exemplified by Lemon.

He added “no organization is perfect” (unless it is the USA) in acknowledging the group's violent past on his prime time program.

(Lemon)”It says it right in the name: Antifa. Anti-fascism, which is what they were there fighting,” Lemon said in reference to clashes between neo-Nazis (SOROS, their sponsor)and Antifa members in Charlottesville, Va., in August 2017.”The final BS: The dude who drove the car into the crowd killing a person was a COMMUNIST (per a Facebook Comment posted by a woman who said she knew the driver. No New Outfit EVER vetted the ID of the driver, so I'll go with what I read as it fits their modus operand.

Would he say the same thing about the KKK?

More reason why Trump has labeled the Establishment Media as fake news.

He must be confusing Antifa with BLM. Not hard to do for a moron.

Stupid Lemon fell for the bait in trying to defend Antifa. Right now I think Congress is more popular [which tells you something].

The point is you don’t just assume a group has authentically labeled itself. ‘It’s right there in the name! Anti-fascist” Oof. What a moron.

Should I type slowly so the lefties will get it?:

They’re not “anti-fascist”. They simply label their middle-of-the-road political enemies as “fascist” and use that as an excuse to commit violence. It’s not complicated, but these dummies are selectively ignorant when it suits them - the ones that aren’t outright stupid, that is.

This is the first time I have heard that there is any association between Antifa and the Blacks.

I thought BLM was the Black movement.
