You have it exactly the other way round.

Ahhhh, well it turns out it was a good question to ask. And now I know the answer. And you don’t. Say “pretty please,” and maybe I’ll tell ya.

You are not getting much argument from me there, seeing as yours for as from a backstreet abortion clinic.

And have a warrant for George Soros arrest.That may very well be exactly the point, but maybe not the only point. I am not 💯% sure, but being designated a terrorist organization, allows the feds to follow the money, confiscate their billions, have the Army arrest them, and haul their worthless carcasses off to Gitmo, instead of a US jail, where every communist lawyer in the world would represent them.
A little different, but I wonder if the Lolita Express people, child trafficking people, and others, can be rounded up like this too? I hope so.

If there is a compelling reason legally why RICO will not suffice, I hope some freeper will explain it to me.I am not sure, of course, but maybe, being designated an international terrorist organization, allows Gitmo to be used. Anyone know for sure?

I believe the international terrorist designation would bring in the full intelligence weight of the five eyes intelligence sharing allies, as well as legally giving them the right to stop the flow of money. Dont forget, antifa is a worldwide organization causing trouble in many places.

You do not know what you are talking about, as you have made manifestly clear. Make your case on facts, if you are able. Even if not, stop with the personal insults, as it is against FR rules as you should clearly know by now.

I know exactly what I am talking about
This thread is now 150 posts. You came in late to the thread only to start litigating already debated matters.
I have repeatedly explained why declaring ANTUFA as a terrorist organization is an excellent idea. Go back to the start of the thread.

I think it will depend on crime...

No. Designated terror groups are foreign, designated by the State Department. Simply supporting a designated group is a crime and can have severe consequences. The FBI “designates” domestic terror groups, ELF/ALF makes the list. However the list has no legal consequences. Like the ten most wanted, the legal consequences are tied to the underlying crime, not the list. I don’t know if ELF accepts donations, but you could probably make one without consequences. Donating to a designated terror group is itself a crime.

Respectfully Andy, shut up. The Antifa gangs ARE terrorists, funded by Soros, et al. Designating them for what they are makes the Soros funding mechanisms vulnerable to federal seizure and even going after Soros money everywhere because he is funding terrorism.
Antifa ARE terrorists. Deal with them as terrorists and watch them slink back under the rocks which hide them, and listen to the voices in academia and hollyweird who defend them ... and act accordingly.
