    When the left wing starts committing crimes and attempting an insurrection, let’s talk.

    Also, isn’t this the same logic used by conservatives when we mention that African Americans are over-represented in prison? Maybe the Right should try committing less terrorism?

      The article describes the left committing a crime.

      Why are you talking about terrorism? That has nothing to do with the article.

      A right-wing group went to protest—a legal activity under the law. A left-wing group showed up and attacked them. A criminal act and concerning since it is trying to squash free speech.

      You do not have to support the protest but attacking protestors is fascism. We have a long history of letting protestors, protest. Trying to squash free speech is not the way a Republic works.

        Except the fbi said it wasn’t an insurrection. The left keeps repeating that lie hoping someone will believe it.

        Just like Trump keeps repeating that Joe stole the election.

        The truth is Joe won and there was no insurrection.

    “Antifa and related far-left groups decided they needed to ‘shut this down.’ … They came prepared for violence, bringing weapons including pepper spray, fireworks, knives, and homemade bombs,” Judge Cormac J. Carney of the US District Court for the Central District of California wrote on February 21. “And they used those weapons, as well as their bodies, against Trump supporters and law enforcement.”

    In Oregon, they just let them duke it out most of the time. Mutual combat. Antifa isn’t overly smart. They picked a fight with a biker gang at least twice, but it didn’t end well for them.
