I have to say I was really shocked to see a lot of leftists come out against antifa (though of course not all-- Elizabeth Edwards). I'm shocked because the left always embraces and protects its extremists, no matter what they do (for example black lives matter thugs). This is the only time I have seen them do this, so what's the deal?
Check your state laws. It is against the law in California.
don’t have the inclination. looks like the cops in berkeley and elsewhere just laid down when these fascists started burning and rioting and masked up.
Put the blame on the Chief of Police, the Mayor, the city council and the county/state AG for not enforcing the law.
Sue, arrest and fire those who control the cops.
Then if the governor doesn’t respond go after he/she/it and the state AG!

Hail Mary pass.
Polls must be projecting they are about to be obliterated from the galaxy is my guess.
They certainly didn’t do it because it’s just good common sense.
I don’t think they even knew about antifa. Never saw them on cnnbcabcmsnbc, etc.
I think the libs got hold of some internal polls showing that antifa was being hung around the Democrats’ necks in public opinion - ‘rat pollster and analyst Doug Shoen was on Fox last week and practically fell off his chair saying at least twice that he personally denounced antifa and that they definitely were not part of the ‘rat party - he never could quite bring himself to state that neo-Nazis and white supremacists weren’t Republicans, but he was certainly off antifa.....
It is the the normalization of anti-call-me-a-fascist.
AF will probably get branded a terrorist org but will not be touched as they will move to absorb all of the other groups, BLM, what is left of Occupy, Black bloc, BAM, itsGoinDown, Redneck Revolt, John Brown Gun Club, etc and change the name away from anteeteefa.
Normalization of AF is being supported by the used-to-be-the-press and they are being fed staged events to "report" on, completely fake events with paid actor "protesters" on both sides now, not just AF being paid.
Charlottesville was a letter perfect example. AF on one side and fake Nazis complete with flags mixed into the other side.
All the used-to-be-the-press had to do is flip on the cameras and presto, instant "Trump-supporters" white nationalists and Nazis, right on time for the 6 clock news.
They have figured out that they can not goad the conservative right into doing stupid things in the street so probably what we will see is the left imitating the 3%ers open carry by whatever AF morphs into after absorbing the other groups.
Reasoning?
Same old crap...
Since you violated us with your differing opinions we are forced to physically attack you in our self-defense and it's illegal for you to fight back.
So now we will have both sides doing open carry and as soon as another corrupt mayor shoves both groups together there is the potential for a real disaster which the press will beat the drums on non-stop till November 2018.

leftist Dems are totally panicked about the major negative impact that the vids of these violent and avowedly anti-USA anarchists are having on their electoral prospects.
word went out last week on the leftist tom-tom network to condemn these thugs, and more importantly, to signal their financial backers to back off. there’s been a series of articles from major leftist “news” sources in the last week with headlines like “Antifa Anarchists Attack Peaceful Right-Wing Demonstrators”.
WaPo had an article like this as did the San Fran Chronic, and I’m sure many others.
this is not out of the goodness of these peoples’ hearts, folks: they’ve been told to shut this down for political reasons because it’s gonna kill the leftist candidates.
We shouldn’t let them sever the association. We should repeat “Democrat Antifa” early and often, get everyone to associate a violent thug organization with Democrats. ...as should the KKK, which many don’t seem to realize.
Exactly what German LE did with the Brownshirts.
Government sanctioned attacks.
I believe that the victims had been disarmed by the government by that time. Except for several fascist states like CA NY etc, that hasn't and will not happen here.
It is possible, but not probable, that the liberal leadership will openly turn on them, but I doubt it. The average liberal numb nuts will just continue to go tish, tish. Every single Democrat in this country that does not openly castigate the Antifa thuggery and brutality is in favor of it. Silence is consent.
We need to be smothering these mayors and police departments in lawsuits. Not just the police chiefs, I mean every member of these police departments that follows a stand down order. Just following orders does not cut it anymore.
bttt
It is past time to also blame every street cop that stands down based on such orders.
When a cop sees his job as more important than stopping the potential murder of innocents when he has the ability to do so, then he assumes responsibility for the violence against these innocents.
You folk saying you haven’t heard any of this - need to be spoon fed?
YouTube Pelosi condemns Antifa
and
Morning Joe and Mika condemn Antifa
their duplicity is enough to turn your stomach -
Guess they knew THIS was coming? And they’re hoping to cover any of the many strings that lead back to them?

they got bigger than BLM; nothing can be allowed to get bigger than BLM
Evergreen State. The students they trained to be activists turned on liberal arts professors, violently.
I seriously doubt the liberal establishment cut its ties with AuntieFaye. They have got the directive to verbally denounce the violents but they still materially support them. And “they,” I suspect are essentially George Soros. He is still funding them but they were too closely connected with the democrats and Soros probably noted that the citizenry was starting to think of the Democrats and Auntiefaye as one entity.
There. Fixed it.
Antifa got a little big for its britches and started openly promoting violence, and speaking out the truth about what they stand for. I didn’t see the left pull back and start to speak out until Antifa stated their goals are not the same as the Democrats and they said the USA has to go. People were not thrilled with that to say the least. Many of them likely feel that way if not most, but they are not ready to say it in public.
