Are you sure that's an apples to apples comparison? Would buying the house require a particular credit check, or cost money? Are you sure they just "chose" not to buy even tho they had the option to? lol.

There were less than 200 by most accounts the last time "Antifa" tried to hold a national rally.
The absolute truth is that you have zero idea how many people identify as Antifa and zero information about how much and to what extent violent activity is predicated on that membership or ideology.

I'm not saying you're wrong. Broken clock and all that.

I think Barr is very accurate in his description. Take a look at 1:54:40 here

A.G. BARR: I'M NOT SURE I SAID TERRORIST ORGANIZATION. I SAID WE ARE INVESTIGATING IT AS DOMESTIC TERRORISM. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF VIOLENT EXTREME GROUPS IN THE U.S. AND THEY ARE ACROSS THE SPECTRUM. ANTIFA IS HEAVILY REPRESENTED IN THE RECENT RIOTS. THEY HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS BEING INVOLVED IN A NUMBER OF VIOLENT MOB ACTIONS.

REP. GAETZ's HAIR: SOME SAY ANTIFA IS A MYTH. THAT THEIR INVOLVEMENT IN THIS VIOLENCE IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS REAL. WHAT IS YOUR REACTION?

A.G. BARR: I DON'T THINK IT IS A MYTH. ANTIFA CAN BE BEST THOUGHT OF AS AN UMBRELLA TERM FOR WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY A MOVEMENT COMPRISED OF LOOSELY ORGANIZED GROUPS AROUND THE COUNTRY. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF GROUPS AND CENTERS OF ACTIVITY. THE GROUPS ARE LOOSELY ORGANIZED BUT THEY ARE DEFINITELY ORGANIZED. THEY DO NOT GET ALONG VERY WELL. THEY TEND TO GET ORGANIZED FOR AN EVENT. THERE IS A LOT OF ORGANIZATION RIGHT BEFORE AN EVENT.

Why do people quibble so much over antifa being "a thing" or not? There are countless examples of far left self-identified communists and socialists violently assaulting people they deem political adversaries. Those are the people that anyone cares about, call them whatever you want, although antifa *does* have specific organized chapters in various parts of the country.

What exactly is "doing something about" you dipshits getting yourselves vanned for participating in domestic terrorism?

We see you! Your latest pivot is a call for support from the right which is a ultimately a call for us to use our arms to free you from so-called tyranny so that you can turn about and finger point using us as the scapegoat so you can jump right back on the government's dick protesting and gathering support for the abolishment of the 1st and 2nd ammendments.

Fuck you. Youre terrorists, terrorism by definition is utlizing violence, the fear of violence, and destruction to deliver a political message.

I hope you vanned to Guantanamo. Dipshit.

P.s. its time to turn out the lights and go to bed. If i have to tell you again, im taking away your iPhone for a week.
Yikes, Seek Help

If you ever wondered what side of the fence you sit on, this is a great test!

If you aren't a liberal at 20, you're heartless.

If you aren't a conservative at 40, you're brainless

If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one. If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.

If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal, wonders who is going to pay for him.

If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, movie, tv show, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don't like to be shut down.

If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and Jesus silenced.

If a conservative needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. A liberal will demand that the rest of us pay for his medical care.

If a conservative read this, he'll forward it, so his friends can have a good laugh. A liberal will delete it because he's "triggered and offended."

I don't fear death- it happens to everyone. I just hope once I am dead and buried, I don't vote Democrat. --- since somehow some dead people can do this!
Yikes, try getting laid more. How is writing such rubbish fun to you?

Brothers in arms. Or 'something' in arms, I mean I'm down with the pronouns and I'm not going to assume anything. Anyway, we're all in this together!
