Green Bay Police: Antifa Member with Flamethrower Cried in Fetal Position When Caught
Breitbart ^ | September 1, 2020 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 09/01/2020 4:46:32 PM PDT by lowbridge

A suspected member of Antifa — who was allegedly armed with a flamethrower — cried in the fetal position before his arrest during a Saturday evening protest in Green Bay, Wisconsin, according to law enforcement.

WBAY reports;

Matthew Banta, 23, is charged with obstructing an officer and two counts of felony bail jumping.

The criminal complaint says Banta “is known to be a violent Antifa member who incites violence in otherwise relatively peaceful protests.” Police say he’s known as “Commander Red.”

[…]

A responding officer says he saw four individuals walking towards a protest with baseball bats. One man was wearing a metal helmet with goggles and military-style gear with multiple pouches, and was carrying an Antifa flag. When the officer pulled his squad car in front of the group, they ran away. The officer caught Banta, who was carrying the flag, and says Banta “dropped into the fetal position and began crying.”

There is an old saying. Muslims are either at your throat or at your feet. I guess that saying applies to Antifa as well.

When it starts getting real and people die, we will see how committed to the cause these “Peaceful Protestors” really are.

I look forward to AG Barr and Durham arranging for a subpoena on a sure thing rap against Adam Schiff and seeing him do the same thing. His bug eyes filling with tears “I didn’t mean it. I was scared. Pelosi threatened to hit me if I didn’t do it.”
