    You didn’t look at the Project Veritas (a throughly discredited organization) of them gathering in bookstores and sharing PowerPoint presentations? Terrifying stuff.

    I can’t count the number of times I’ve looked at someone’s link to find the claims in their post are no where to be found. Or sometimes the article even acknowledges the claim they made to be false or inaccurate.

    Also, so many of the right-wing outlets are total ad dumpsters, and I’d rather not contribute to their revenue.

    You didn't read my posts. I quoted it, TWICE for you now, and provided links. I'm not asking you to read all the articles (which you asked me for). I'm asking you to read the portions that I quoted, the portions which specifically demonstrate that he's a leftist Antifa supporter. Here, I'll quote it a third time:

    "tweets supporting Antifa, or anti-fascist, protesters"

    source: CNN - Dayton shooter had an obsession with violence and mass shootings, police say

    Here's the link again, in case you don't realize you can click on the link above: https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/05/us/connor-betts-dayton-shooting-profile/index.html

    Defend them from what ? You are talking gibberish again. If you are going to claim some group are terrorists it is up to you to provide support for your claim.

    Asking you to support your claim is defense of logic and reason :)

    Swing and a miss.

    ....and yet somehow the Italians and Irish pulled themselves out of the poverty and criminal life style. As far as the "equal opportunities, educational opportunities", poor Asians come to this country and live in the same areas as blacks and Latinos. Yet somehow they prosper in the very same schools you say are keeping blacks poor. Could it be their families with both mothers and fathers in the home plus the emphasis on education? Open your eyes and see past your stereotypes.

    I have not defended anyone from legitimate criticism. Only an idiot accepts an unsupported claim as legitimate.

    That is true. The WH Council along with the DOJ would have advised him ahead of time. Since AG Barr jumped on it as well, that alone should tell people that he was following his rights as POTUS.

    I think that if you follow what is going to be coming out you will see they have both a political agenda, which is centered around anarchy among other things, and they have a hierarchy, even though it is very loose. They have funding, especially in Bitcoin and in GoFundme style donations, as well as Credit Card theft, etc.

    Like Punk Rock bands, ANTIFA has an agenda. It's just that Punk Rock tends to talk and play music around anarchistic themes while ANTIFA actually targets individuals and businesses and carries out such things.

    Why are you so desperate to continue wandering down this rabbit hole - on a path to the intellectual abyss ?

    I anticipate a propaganda campaign to go along with this stupidity. Which will be a bunch of sweaty right-wing knuckleheads making vague assertions with misleading evidence, or more likely, no evidence. Trump might as well light the constitution on fire at this point.

    Trump and the right wing are trying to save it, before the far left nuts and their ANTIFA terrorist organization burn the country down into ashes. They tried before, they are at it again.

    Show from you link, supporting antifa.
    You failed to do it again.

    Oh wait, a retweet.

    The account retweeted messages supporting Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, as well as posts against ICE agents, including one that said, "these people are monsters," and multiple posts condemning police, and supporting Antifa protesters, who often use violent tactics.

    You are incapable of copy/paste?

    The White Nationalists that tRUMP supports have been the instigators.
    As always.
    Some might say White supremacists if they want to be accurate. tRUMPs base.

    I'm not desperate in any way. I simply provide opinions like you do. You aren't required to agree with them.

    I've copied and pasted it repeatedly. At this point, I'm left with the conclusion that you are incapable of reading.

    No ... went right thorugh the net ;-)

    Open your eyes please ... Irish, Italians and even the Asians had one different and very important difference: They were never rightles slaves and even after slacery, they were never target of Racial discrimination and segregation ... or did you ever read in a bus or a park bank "Italians / Irish / Asians" only with a ban to sit where "Whites only" was marked?

    Sure, the Irish, Italians and Asians were also the target of racist and cultural attacks. Especially the Irish and Italians ... who are evil Catholics and what is still a bad stain for many Protestant Anglo-Americans ... have been the target of attacks and they were only slightly above the rating above the blacks ... but they were ultimately white!

    And the same applies to the Latinos ... who have once again become a target under Trump, who already doesn't like the Spanish language. They too have had frequent attacks in history ... for example in World War II in Los Angeles, where members of the Navy and Marines behaved no differently from the riots than the SA did to Jews in the 1930s!

    And now start to deal with the realities for the black population! If a black man drives in a 100,000 USD car, a police check is safe ... because how can such a ... literally ... Bimbo be able to afford such a car. If that's not racism, then what?

    Slaves were emancipated in 1864-1865. We have come so far with laws and moral values, they're running out of excuses. I would fix the problem by putting only Black Officers in predominantly Black areas.

    Interesting view ... but you forget a little thing:

    When did racial segregation be lifted again in all states and could blacks vote as easily as whites ... eh?

    Those who are running out of excuses are blind whites, who use phrases and don't want to see any racism or who play down proven cases.
    And a really "great" idea that only black cops patrol in black residential areas ... in reverse means that only white cops should be used in the white areas and possibly only Asian cops in Asian quarters.

    Is genuine racial segregation version 2.0 what you are proposing here instead of fighting the undeniable racism and creating real equality in all matters!

    I grew up in the 1960's in the North East, unless you did during the same time in the United States, you don't know what your talking about.
