    Sounds like marxist revisionism to me.

    Wow, long post romanticising them. They dont use cell phones? How quaint (and doubtless, false)
    I hear Portland used to be very nice, before the explosion in junkies living in tent cities and the mayor giving aunty fay free reign and ordering police to stand down.
    So beer drinking, pot smoking meth heads using vigilante violence in the streets, seems like good idea? How long until the next riot?
    BTW nice dig at the police.

    Thanks-thats exactly what I was looking for.

    The simple false dichotomy that defines Antifa-you are a fascist your an anti fascist.

    My ancestors killed both and I can dig it.

    Why do you support violent right wing gangs? It may be one of the reasons ya all don't like the FBI. Their data has been showing that almost all domestic political violence has come from right wing gangs. The various anti fascist groups are fighting back. Is that why you don't like them

    I dont support street thugs on either side, unlike you. What happened to your claim aunty fay wont use guns because they are brave, in your face types? Picking your false post apart is easy. Like you saying Ethan Nordean was charged with a felony. He was released, shortly after arrest.
    Care to use some more strawmen? Your provably, untrue claims are badly failing. Guess strawmen are the next step.

    I like the Proud Boys. They are neither right wing nor nazis. All races are welcomed. Regular guys. They're just standing their own ground not letting antifa lunatics to bully them.

    "Proud Boys" announce lawsuit against SPLC - Full Press Conference



    Members and leadership of right-wing organization "The Proud Boys" assembled Monday afternoon in front of the Lincoln Memorial to hold a press conference announcing a lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).

    Protecting the city?

    How does smashing the windows of a Starbucks, setting things on fire, and throwing rocks and bottles at police officers protect a city?

    Why does Antifa do all the vandalism and graffiti they do? What protective purpose does it serve?

    So where were the "violent right wing gangs" here:

    LINK: May Day Protests Turn Violent in Portland as Police Cancel Permits
    LINK: Mayor on May Day riot: 'That's not political speech. That's crime'

    You either didn't see my other post or ignored it so figured I'd ask you again.

    I would have to agree, on the grounds that only left-wing people do terrible things while the right-wing folks sit quietly, getting ever madder, until they just won't be able to take it anymore and will explode with righteous fury and might and the country will be better again. Or at least that's one of the narratives.

    So, in other words, it’s perfectly OK to assault someone who walks in a meeting unarmed?

    Notice how they say "he got beat up by a girl" as a means to demean and dismiss him, but if he had knocked that girl flat they'd be all "OMG he just hit a girl!"

    Sooner or later Antifa will run into a group of men with guns and it will be a very bad day for them.

    All you have to do is carry around a bottle of water and a bar of soap in Portland.

    They run from it like a vampire from garlic.

    I'm sure they all have phones. Most are probably in much better shape than you, and more sociable. Yet they are anarchists, the true freedom living people that libertarians pretend to be. As such they are quite leery of authorities and do much to reduce their exposure - which is why they wear masks.


    You call it a dig a cops, but it's time you faced reality. It has long been the nature of the police. They tend to be, or at least have a group within their ranks that is quite right wing and racist. And at a higher rate than the general population.

    Many police departments have a long history of being infiltrated by groups like the KKK. That is how they got into Colorado. They began in the Denver Police Department and worked their way into the mayor's office and the city government. Being as the state capital was in the same group of government buildings as Denver city offices, they then lobbied their way into the state government, even getting a governor elected who was quite sympathetic to their cause. It got to where the grand wizard was bragging that he had power over the mayor of Denver and the governor of Colorado. It is kind of weird though, as Colorado doesn't have a lot of Blacks, even though there was a town in Colorado that was founded and settled by former slaves. Mostly the KKK muscle went after unions, which were quite strong in Denver.

    It was civic leaders from Boulder who led the charge to root out the corrupting influence if the KKK in Colorado. Boulder being the first city to specifically forbid Jim Crow type of laws. The mayor publicly called out and politically embarrassed the governor. But it was most likely the reporters who did most to bring them down. It was the corruption of the police, that local papers, like the Denver Post exposed, that led to reforms that mostly rooted out the KKK and it's influence.

    There was one famous case where two policemen were in the act of robbing a store, in the middle of the night, that they had broken into. They got a call and went to a crime scene, arrested a man, took him to jail and booked him. They then went back to the store and continued to rob the store.

    In another case, the Denver cop who set the world record for writing the most tickets in a month, was caught taking stolen goods to his home, using his police cruiser.

    The Portland Police, for the most part are mostly a rather laid back group. As far as police go, they tend to be on the tolerant side. It is this characteristic of the Portland Police that has allowed the violent right wing gangs like the Patriot Prayer and Proud Boy.

    The Denver Police are another story. Not to say they are abusive, but in a street brawl, I'd put my money on Denver's police over any other city's police.

    Denver is as left leaning as Portland, and in many ways moreso. Colorado is getting more blue by the day. The people of Denver think that Trump is as much of a blight on our country as the people of Portland. Denver is as feminist friendly as Portland. And almost as gay friendly.

    On ideological grounds, the violent right wing gangs could just as easily be attacking Denver. Except for one big difference. They would have to deal with the Denver Police, and a much more robust political muscle to back them up. Denver has dealt with gang violence, they know what they are doing.

    Portland is just getting up to speed.
