    The far right attack anyone who is non far right white, disobedient women, black, hispanic, Asian, Muslim, lgbt people to name a few. The far left tend to react against this aggression by the far right.

    I think any violence is bad. One side hates non-whites and various religions and gays, the other hates them.
    What we had in Ireland in the eighties were drug dealers and a heroin epidemic. Then we'd vigilantes attacking the drug dealers. Of course some thought they were virtuous but some just liked a fight.

    The far right and left are two sides of the same bad penny.

    So both a hateful bunch by all accounts. It's a case of I hate you because you hate them. The whole thing is absolute nonsense.

    Antifa in recent times attacked a man coming out of the American Jewish History Museum in Philadelphia.

    Ngo is not the only Asian reporter that has had it hit from them either, far from it.

    They will not be the last.

    Jews, Asians are considered off message, as are vast tracts of the working class.

    Here it is again.

    For for a minute there it almost sounded like you were trying to paint this Andy Ngo as some monster that deserved it, so you agree that this Antifa crowd are just violent thugs beating people on the street ?

    Commentator Max Brooks on Bill Maher tonight about American society:

    "The solution is to abolish the two party system, let the knee jerk reactionary liberals and the bat shyt crazy conservatives spin off on their own while the moderates concentrate on building the schools, fixing the roads and taking the. GODDAMN LEAD out of the water"

    Extremists of all creeds need to get in the sea.

    I wonder would adding preferential voting solve the problem of the two party system

    As I say nobody should take the law into their own hands. You were making comparisons on the hypocrisy of Antifa being violent and labeling the other side Nazi and white supremacists, which they are by the way. One might have politics you like or dislike, that's neither here nor there, unless of course we like violence by racists or on racists.

    You might think they have a noble cause ( while covering their faces ), but these black bloc groups attack police, institutions, journalists, symbols of capitalism and destroy property. They are communistic anarchists, and seemingly you support them. Don't take my word for it, have a read of what the DHS thinks a few posts back.

    I agree with you, 100%. And I've said I condemn all violence against people. It seems there are only a few on this thread willing to condemn.

    If this thread were about right wing violence there would be 500 posts by now. It seems the left are too busy on the two GOD threads today.

    Remember this next time one of their lot gets a hiding.

    The only reasonable point or conclusion is to label groups like antifa as domestic terrorists and do the same to any group that purposely engages in physical violence to achieve political goals. That mayor has a lot to answer for, in 2020 it's only going to get worse. Same applies to neo nazi groups.

    https://www.politico.com/story/2017/09/01/antifa-charlottesville-violence-fbi-242235

    "Federal authorities have been warning state and local officials since early 2016 that leftist extremists known as “antifa” had become increasingly confrontational and dangerous, so much so that the Department of Homeland Security formally classified their activities as “domestic terrorist violence,” according to interviews and confidential law enforcement documents obtained by POLITICO...

    Previously unreported documents disclose that by April 2016, authorities believed that “anarchist extremists” were the primary instigators of violence at public rallies against a range of targets. They were blamed by authorities for attacks on the police, government and political institutions, along with symbols of “the capitalist system,” racism, social injustice and fascism, according to a confidential 2016 joint intelligence assessment by DHS and the FBI."

    That's shocking. They should put these clowns away for long sentences. Imagine what prison would do to these fools.

    I'll tell you why they use weapons because they are little bitches, and the masks are to stop people from dying with laughter when they see their faces. Under developed jaw lines galore.

    These scum are vicious, it's not just punches being thrown. The day of the incident, they smacked innocent people in the head with crowbars which imo, isn't far off attempted murder.



    Fella was attacking people with a baton.

    Is it wrong to attack people with batons in your view?

    For me I've no time for thugs. I even thought Osama was murdered by the U.S. but some folks justify breaking the law, depends on who's getting the kicking and if they agree or not.
    Why would anyone be arsed defending Antifa violence or defending white supremacists? Maybe that's why 'the left' aren't biting as much as you might like?
    By 'left' do you mean people who don't like racists? And you wonder why they aren't giving out about racists being discriminated against or attacked?

    I mean the same left that would be having a **** fit if this violence was being committed by the far right, they'd be on here giving it plenty of wellie.

    I didnt cheer I said it was hilarious and I stand by that. Someone forgot the safe cross code. I'm sure he/she was just fine.
