    You need to be careful on how you come to this assertion. There were plenty of Trump supporters, of that I have little doubt (although my opinion is an OPINION). But it seems more and more "not Trump supporters" are being discovered.

    I don't need to be careful when I can clearly count. I have little doubt lefty anarchists were there causing mayhem, but let's be real about the bulk.

    So as I commented yesterday. Good riddance. Arrest him and imprison him with the rest of the insurrectionists.

    At this point there are charges against over 200 insurrectionists. All of the Trump supporters except for one being identified as being aligned with the left.

    These were violent insurrectionists at the Capital.. not anarchists. Learn the difference.

    ANTIFA are anarchists.

    looks like you need to pick up a dictionary

  6. You're right, this particular action was mostly attended by people leaning right,but lets also be real that in every single "protest" we are seeing them being infiltrated and influenced by the most extreme elements of both left and right. It only takes a few to turn an otherwise peaceful protest into a full blown riot. Again, there are no clean hands and absolutely no one group which has claim to some moral high ground justifying their violence. Antifa, BLM and now this MAGA mob are all cut from the same cloth, all equally guilty of mob violence, all needing to be dealt with in the same fashion. Put down hard and fast the minute they turn violent. No excuses, no exceptions, no but they have a just cause, nothing.

    Antifascists are not anarchists laddo. You need to be careful with that.

    Cons gets a sniff of somebody Laura Ingram tells them to focus on and..

  8. Hair splitting word salad twisting yourself up trying to explain a distinction without a difference. They are all trying to violently overthrow government at the local, state and federal levels.

    Hair splitting is important because anarchists do not care for government and may slant left or right. The aim of antifascists is not to destroy government, only creeping right wing, authoritarian government. To those who support a right wing dictatorship, this is a distinction without a difference of course.

  10. This entire story seems to have a False Flag element to it.... start a riot, blame Trump?
