Cops Stand Down as ANTIFA Terrorists Attack Trump Supporters at Rally in Ithaca, NY
Big League Politics ^ | 10/17/20

Posted on 10/18/2020 2:35:08 AM PDT by Altura Ct.

Police stood down and allowed ANTIFA terrorists to attack a group of peaceful Trump supporters in Ithaca, N.Y. on Friday afternoon.

“We gathered to have our Trump 2020 Rally, and at 4 PM were immediately met by a large group of counter protestors. After about a half hour went by and the counter protestors saw that they had a large numerical advantage, they began crossing the street,” organizer Rocco Lucente wrote in a Facebook post.

“At that point they began pushing, shoving, kicking, punching, stealing peoples signs and flags, taking peoples hats, and attempting to physically intimidate the crowd into surrender. It got to the point where the mob was attacking anyone who still had Trump gear on. We called Ithaca Police Department to let them know what was happening, but they didn’t show up for a half hour and merely directed traffic away from the riot once they did show up. Mayor Svante Myrick enabled this thuggish display of violence by mobs of his voters by telling IPD to stand down,” he added.

Lucente noted that a 60-year-old woman was accosted by the mob and suffered a dislocated shoulder due to the ANTIFA terror. He is urging Trump supporters to show up with overwhelming numbers for a follow-up protest next weekend to show the mob that patriots will not be deterred by their thuggery.

“I will be posting more on this in the future, but this post has ONE message: The only way to respond to this is to show up a week from today in MASSIVE numbers,” he wrote.

“If the mob learns that they can intimidate us into silence, it’s over. At that point, we no longer have freedom of expression in the place where we live. The ONLY way to show them that this doesn’t work is to show them that this will cause us to show up in LARGER NUMBERS THAN EVER!” Lucente added.

Tompkins County Republicans also noted that the ANTIFA terrorism that is being celebrated by nascent left-wing organizations such as the Democrat Socialists of America (DSA).

The Cornell Daily Sun covered the event and correctly noted that the ANTIFA terrorists instigated the violent situation.

“We had no idea we’d be joined by people calling us members of the KKK,” organizer Nancy Sullivan said. “We’re not here to create trouble.”

Cornell history professor Russell Rickford endorsed the terrorist display publicly, showing how institutional power works to punish conservatives and endorses violence against them.

“I think it’s really important in a town like Ithaca, with its liberal veneer, to actually demonstrate strong opposition to racist and reactionary politics,” said Rickford, who is a member of the Ithaca DSA. “Quite often, liberalism is willing to accommodate the far right, to justify it and, by doing so, legitimize it.”

Even though Trump supporters have been hunted by ANTIFA terrorists nationwide, the China-owned feds continue to look the other way, as Big League Politics has noted:

After repeatedly denying the ANTIFA terror threat and diverting federal resources to the false canard of white supremacy, a grassroots movement is urging for President Donald Trump to fire FBI Director Christopher Wray.

Newly saved Christian and long-time Trump advocate Roger Stone is publicizing a petition to the President to fire Wray that is rapidly gaining signatures.

“So attorney general Bill Barr says he has absolute solid proof via the FBI of Antifa’s organized financing and structure yet FBI director Christopher Wray insists that ANTIFA, which is a dangerous terrorist group, is just an ideology and not dangerous at all,” Stone said in a video address against Wray posted on his Telegram account.

“Chris Wray is the epitome of a swamp rat. He has worked against President Donald Trump to cover the excesses of the FBI since the moment he was appointed. It is time for the President to fire Chris Wray,” he added.

The petition can be accessed at MagaPetition.org/firewray. The language introducing the petition makes an even stronger case for Trump to depose Wray.

“Director Wray has failed to pursue in any meaningful way the criminal abuses of power perpetrated by his predecessor and the former Deputy Director who participated in nothing less than a seditious conspiracy aimed at a sitting president, after spying on this president while a candidate for that office, obtaining extraordinary secret warrants under knowingly-false pretenses and by systematic deception of a federal court, in service to tawdry personal and partisan vendettas against this president,” the petition description reads.

“Director Wray has failed to reform the culture of the FBI that has for too long been tainted by political correctness and the selective targeting of enforcement against only those who have opposed certain political actors, sects or ideologies, while ignoring serious and widespread crimes committed or fomented by these same political actors or their fellow travelers,” the petition continues.

Despite what taxpayer-funded Marxists say on college campuses, all of the institutional and systemic oppression in this country is against white conservatives. Diversity and multiculturalism mean the death of the rule of law with low IQ savagery reigning supreme.

That’s why I’d never have a pro-police sign in my yard. I’m not pro-police, I’m pro law and order.

Well said. “Protect and Serve” is nothing more than a sticker for patrol cars.

The mayor should be dealt with directly for having the cops stand down. Otherwise they think what they’re doing is ok. The left can generally gather a crowd quicker than we can. Their enablers are the ones that need correction.

This is an important point and if Patriots are to retain the right to assemble, they need to employ mitigation to these types of tactics. A rear counter move would be a pincer tactic from the rear.

No one wants to consider violence when attempting to assemble, but what’s the enemy doing? Being bludgeoned into submission isn’t a good success plan.

I will not be showing up to any political rallies without several deadly weapons in my possession. You could drag me half dead to Ithica, NY.

Hey Russell Rickford!

When you endorse violence, violence often visits you!

Here is the no doubt tenured “african radical tradition” historian who PRAISES violence against everday Americans because.....slavery, and slavery CAUSED by the traditional African mud hut dwellers who sold their own people into slavery to Arab (and other Semite) traders through tribal middlemen.

THIS is the kind of idiotic sophistry which empowers MARXISTS and, in reality is Critical Race Theory written large— to paying students WE support through govt. grants and tax supported student loans (ALL of which are now FEDGOV loans— which they DO NOT PAY BACK).

In the proposed Ithaca City budget they have CUT positions for EIGHT (8) police officers. Positions left unfilled.

While a banner on the “bridge to nowhere” (as you enter the city from the south) says that Ithaca police are HIRING! Apply NOW!

I saw this in DC and on Martha’s Vineyard years ago. Here our cops are apolitical, except maybe in private.

The left won’t defund the cops. They’ll train them to go after us.

Historicaly this has been the SS, the NKVD, the Checka and today it is the Police Leadership in most cities, places like Chicago, N.Y., Houston who are the handmaidens of the Democrat dictatorship.

And then you add to that the Antifa and BLM and all of these crazy (Ugly) girls who march to support abortion.

Once again elections have consequences and in big cities the Cops tend to be more Tax collector than anything else, just look at Portland and Seatle

People will say we shouldn’t lower ourselves to their level? I say fight fire with fire.

Only the strong survive. It took Eastern Europe Two/Three generation to shed the shackles of commie slavery.

It took Venezuela about TEN years for the average citizen of Venezuela to start seeing the real affects of their election decisions. Now the second generation of Venezuelans are in for more of the same
