    The OP is Fake News.
    Even the Southern Poverty Law Center has admitted that it is Fake News.
    It is propaganda designed to incite violent riots. The "left" should stop doing that.

    Because there is a video that the whole country can see where a police officer is pressing his knee into an immobilized man’s neck and we can see the life drain out of him before our very eyes.

    According to their web site

    “Rose City Antifa opposes fascist organizing through direct action, education, and through solidarity with leftist spaces, activists, and organizations”.


    And an anarchist is described as

    “a person who believes in or tries to bring about anarchy.” According to my Oxford dictionary.


    The various antifa groups tend to be rather small. In any one city they are probably no more two or three dozen or so. They just do not have the manpower to cause the mayhem that we have been seeing.


    Anarchists are everywhere. Although the more organized ones tend to lean left, a great deal of libertarians are also anarchists. Anarchists want to tear society down, the antifa wants to make society better.

    Tell that to someone who believes it, they are known to travel and I'm not buying the minimization of them. How many members do you think, large blue cities have? 20 to 30 or 2 to 3K ? And "direct action" is dog whistle for black block, street violence. If they were such good guys, they would not cover their criminal faces.

    Not sure why anyone would want to live a life where one’s happiness depended on hating what one does not know.

    Nice strawman (actually it was lamely transparent) I lived in Tampa for 16 years and moved rural a decade ago. Rural is definitely better but other than passing thru, I doubt you know much about rural living other than stereotypes like we often see around here.

    What a load of crap. They are violent anarchist jackasses, who have a history of setting fires and attacking anyone they disagree with white supremacists or not

    White supremacists posing as ANTIFA. It would appear the Bubba's learned a lesson in deception from Vlad's trade craft in 2016.

    Arguing about who is managing the violence is pointless. Putting them in prison is the point.

    They are trying to protect their own rioters.

    Its too obvious to Black protestors and White onlookers that the White Supremacists have not shown up as they expected them to.

    Susan Rice then took to the airwaves... "Russia is fueling the violence..."
    https://trendingpolitics.com/susan-rice-runs-interference-for-antifa-claims-russia-is-behind-riots/


    So once again the left has resorted to a phantom enemy. One that can't be proven... Oh... Unless you are the Mueller Team that has a Russian Company show up in court, that you didn't expect, and have no evidence to show to the court.

    Expect the Southern Poverty Law Center to be outed as a white supremacist organization.

    This gonna hurt. While Portland has beautiful natural areas, just as many places in the US do, Portland also has an underbelly.

    I think that you have been listening to way too much right wing propaganda.

    Section 802 of the USA PATRIOT Act (Pub. L. No. 107-52) expanded the definition of terrorism to cover ""domestic,"" as opposed to international, terrorism. A person engages in domestic terrorism if they do an act "dangerous to human life" that is a violation of the criminal laws of a state or the United States, if the act appears to be intended to: (i) intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination or kidnapping. Additionally, the acts have to occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States and if they do not, may be regarded as international terrorism. (Posted by BoA)

    I get the feeling that ANTIFA members are thinking that someone will never knock on their door.

    But they are not really part of the Progressive Elite / DNC / Circle, so all bets are off.

    Just ask Reality Winner. https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/18/politics/nsa-reality-winner-clemency/index.html

    How many white supremacists or kluxers have been arrested for violence or looting or burning or murdering in the violent protests?

    They're probably elated with the death and destruction, but they have no need to get involved when they can just sit back and watch.

    I suspect some Antifa members are as well as some white nationalists, I suspect it is a mix

    Antifa is a diverse group, so easy for white nationalists to infiltrate vs a black only group

    Well, not exactly sit back and watch.

    The tragic thing is the few destructive demonstrators are going to prevent the country from having the conversation it needs to have about racism and discrimination. Not to mention the perils of electing an overt bigot prez.
