Should anything get violent you are going to call for them to be arrested. Not fair to them or the citizens, IMO.

    I?m also concerned about the naming of a domestic group (ANTIFA) as a terrorist organization. I don?t like the precedent any of this sets for future administrations. Many libs have repeatedly called groups like the NRA a terrorist organization, and I assume they wouldn?t blink twice about naming anyone who is a member of a group like this the same. Aggressively target them for their criminal activity under RICO, similar to our targeting of MS13.

    IMHO this is a basic admission of fascism in the administration, declaring a movement that is against fascism as terrorists. ANTIFA is a portmanteau of anti-fascists, there is no larger group or organization, and the designation will be used to evade the Constitution.

    Anybody cheering these anti-1st activities on should consider what would happen should it be anti-2nd, and if (when?) unrest gets bad enough that a curfew turns to disarmament. Imagine the response of these bumbling clowns who open fire with pepperspray balls at people standing on their private property, toss teargas at people standing around with signs, or do drivebys with rubber bullets on innocents -- would do when the 'other' is armed.

    If you're against the government suggesting you wear a mask but favor the government cracking down on POC, it's pretty obvious you're only OK with masks if they're big white and pointy.

    Fun fact: 93 years and 3 days ago, Donald Trump's father was arrested at a Klan rally.

    I learned three things from this post:

    1. the definition of "portmanteau" and I'm not sure the poster is using it properly
    2. the poster doesn't understand the term "fascist" or "fascism"...I know he's not using that term properly (though, to be fair, most people don't know what this word really means and don't use it properly)
    3. I'll just keep the third thing to myself...

    you pull this from the Daily Kos? We know you don't like trump, we get it.
    But come on pointy hats. so anyone here who didn't wear a face mask to go out during the so called pandemic is a racist?

    you're $%^&* wayyyyyyyyyyy out there. Or have that mask on too tight, it's stopped oxygen from getting to your brain.
