"Members of the far left using violence to shut down free speech...This sort of Thuggery is an absolute disgrace!" Morning Joe is correct.

This is them chanting "No Trump, no wall, No USA at all!" before they began the attack to break through the police lines and get at the other protesters.



Stop lauding these masked thugs.

They are nothing but anarcho-fascists in wolves clothing.

I'm glad Antifa is getting some attention from the liberal half of the mainstream media now. I'd like to think that the violence will start to die down a bit now, but I won't get my hopes up too high.
 
MSNBC is just trying to appeal to a bigger audience. The problem is, the vast majority of their anchors and writers donate to groups that support radical left wing groups like this. Ratings is their goal, not actually stopping violence. Violence is one of their biggest money making schemes.
 
How many are aware that some states like NJ, where Homeland Security have already classified Antifa as a terrorist group?

While the OP calls them anarcho fascists, I find them to be more in line with Communists. While the Antifa movement is anarchic in nature, it owes its birth to the Communist Party. The Antifa movement in the U.S. is a return to the communist paramilitary riot tactics.

In fact those we now see today covered in black with scarves covering their faces are the same bunch that were part of Occupy Wall Street where we were given countless images of the American flag either being burned, walked on like a doormat or defecated on by that group. They are the same groups that poured into Ferguson and Baltimore and NYC and were part of causing violence against police. They are the same bunch that showed up at Trump's inauguration and started trashing businesses, personal property and attacking police. They always end up attacking the police. One of their favorite tricks is to pee in water bottles then throw them at the police.

IMHO, everyone should check the Communist USA website often. Read what they support and what politicians they support. You will get quite an education. Same with the Democratic Socialists of America. These groups are all about destroying our Republic. And I can only hope our government is investigating who are funding these leftists especially the money coming from other countries that would love to see this free Republic destroyed from within.
 
"Anarchy-fascism"? Well there is a new one for me. :)

You got cites to back that one up, or is that educated opinion. And when did it become anyone's business what political party they contribute to, did it bother you just as much that Ailes the perv was chummy with how many GOP big wigs? Your fake outrage has been noted, and dismissed.

Above is my original post #4. I had an afterthought I think pertinent.

Antifa is suppose to mean anti-fascists. Well originally where the roots of Antifa began they were anti-Fascist in retaliation of the Nazi Fascist movement.

Weimar Republic Germany is where Nazi and "Antifa" began. After WWI, Nazis (Fascists) and the opposing anti-fascist group (Communists) were both fighting for the souls of the people.
Nazis (Democratic Socialists) were all for socialism including free healthcare but not as extreme as Communism. Two really crappy choices and unfortunately there seems to be a big effort to restore both of them within the U.S.A.

Socialism is the stepping stone to Communism. Neither have proved to be successful. On the contrary whether it Socialism, Fascism, Communism....every damn one of them robs the joys of liberty and freedom on which this U.S.A. was founded.
