Matthew Banta was previously arrested — and posted bond — after allegedly pointing loaded rifle at cop

A Wisconsin man was caught with a flamethrower, smoke grenades, and fireworks while headed toward a protest in Green Bay over the weekend, WBAY-TV reported.

POLL: Who is pulling Joe Biden's strings?

Matthew Banta, 23, is charged with obstructing an officer and two counts of felony bail jumping, the station reported. He's also "known to be a violent Antifa member who incites violence in otherwise relatively peaceful protests," WBAY said, citing a criminal complaint.

Believe it or not, Banta also is known as "Commander Red," police told the station. What are the details?

25 years is soft in my books, but we’ll be lucky if he even gets that.

All you have to do is shave his head and he’s a skin head. No difference.

Give it up with the video games, I’m tired of that shtick.

I’ll fix it for you. From countless hours of a public indoctrination system combined with countless hours of programming from the media and other leftist groups.

I am not surprised.

The young women protesters (terrorists most likely) are just useful idiots and easily influenced by the cause of the day.

Notice that the gals have a uniform. Black tanks or fastbacks. Black spandex shorts. Black cons or Doc Maartens and hair in a bun. That’s the demonstration uni. Before they go riot the add the tac vests, helmet, goggles and gloves, conveniently available from any number of out of state cars and SUVs.

My dad was a “Commander”.

He was a US Navy Ensign at 19, and at 23 (the same age as this pussy) he was the Post Commander for the VFW in his home town.

That is a “Commander”.

Not this sniveling wimp whose better parts probably went down the crack of his mother’s rear end.

“The drive to ‘belong’ is very strong in the young.”

I had that drive too when I was young so I joined the Air Force in 1963.

He MUST live at home!

Freeze his parents bank accounts, confiscate their wages put up yellow police tape all around their hose and seal it up pending investigate for a month. If he is a student immediately recoup all his loan dept, confiscate their house and cars as collateral if needed.

Thats how U get to these punks, make their parents cut them off and let them suffer the shame too.

Too harsh?

Broken homes? Likely.
If they had fathers, they were checked out or too wrapped up in their own world? Likely.
Indoctrinated to think the way they do and no one around to tell them any different? Likely.

Other than a saving relationship with Yeshua (who they have been trained not to believe even exists) and a miraculous turn of attitude and character, there is no hope for them.

I know it sounds defeatist, but it’s sad reality.

$2,500 cash bail. He is probably already out on the streets.
