    AWFUL: Leftists Work to Get Seattle Proud Boys ‘Toys for Tots’ Drive Cancelled, Police Now Involved in Stopping Event

    'Defund the police' Antifa calls the police on the Proud Boys for attempting to collect and distribute toys to needy families for Christmas.

    How ****ing pathetic and dripping with irony. The panty waste antifa terrorists want to prevent poor kids from getting toys. We all know Pantyfa are a bunch of entitled white suburbanite and rich kids.

    Now, despite calling to abolish police departments, these ass clowns called the police. If it wasn't so sad it would almost be funny.

    BTW, before you say 'Proud Boys are racist' realize that you will be totally and factually wrong.

    Taken from their website:
    Here is the Chairman of the Proud Boys, Enrique Tarrio, who happens to be a black man:

    You mean the radical left, largely supported by dems, is being irrational, violent, destructive, and evil?

    No way.

    Pantyfa is the Democrat party's direct action arm.

    @camp_steveo This appears to be the link you missed from your OP; https://bmglobalnews.com/2020/12/06...celled-police-now-involved-in-stopping-event/

    Even though that is clearly biased in favour of the Proud Boys, what actually happened seems perfectly clear. There is an existing charitable organisation called Toys for Tots which does gather toys a Christmas for less-fortunate children (https://toysfortots.org/). The Proud Boys (or some of them) tried to cash-in on the good name of Toys for Tots by trying to associate their organisation with the charitable activity but it seems they failed to make any contact with Toys for Tots about doing that. They also appear to have arranged an event at a mall without contacting the owners, which even if it wasn't technically required would have been polite and responsible.

    I don't see why political organisations should be linking themselves to charitable events and it's typically a dishonest way to try to make themselves look better, this is just an especially blatant and incompetent example. I'd be all for individuals who happen to be members of the Proud Boys donating to the actual Toys for Tots organisation, but I see zero reason for that to be linked to the Proud Boys or their particular socio-political campaign.

    So what you are saying is that the premise to my OP is accurate. Antifa, who actively works to defund police departments, including Seattle, where this occurred, has called the police on the Proud Boys for the 'crime' of organizing a charity without permission from Walmart.

    Please stop defending the sorry asses who are trying to stop people who want to help underprivileged children.

    There is nothing about "Antifa" other than the accusation from the Proud Boys. The email quoted suggest that someone (unknown) contacted the mall and they followed up both Toys For Tots and the police.

    The main issue isn't organising the event at Walmart, it's using the name and branding of the charity without permission for the self-promotion of their political organisation. Again, that isn't uncommon, this is just a blatant example. Nobody is stopping them donating toys to the charity, they just don't need to link their political organisation to it.

    Nah. Godwin's law applies when it unrelated to the conversation. The Proud Boys are right wing neo-nazi so it does apply.

    Read the OP to see where you are mistaken, or is it wilful?

    The OP doesn't change the fact that the proud boys are far right neo-nazi. Real nazi gave christmas present to kids too.

    The tenets of the Proud Boys are in the OP, so it's either wilful ignorance or a lack of reading comprehension. If you have some way of proving that they are not who they say they are, then by all means, share it.

    People say many things when they try to present themselves in a good light. Just like the nazi did back in the day.

    A glaring difference difference between the Black Lives Matter/Anti-Fascists crowd and the Proud Boys is women. The Black Lives Matter movement is run mostly by women and half of the anti fascists are women.

    The Proud Boys are a fight club for men who struggle to find female companionship. To many women, the Proud Boys represent the type of men that they have rejected. The idea of such men donating toys to their children is a little creepy.

    You do know that there were Jews in the Nazi party too. Some at the highest echelon even. They were aryanized by decree because they were useful to the party. Once the war over they would've been "finalized" like the rest.

    The only "crime" is the mall owner told the Proud Boys to get a permit, just like everyone else has to, to set up a group to solicit their "cause", which presumable includes giving Toys of Tots and not as an excuse for advertising this fascist organization.

    There does not see anything about the police being involved. This so-called repression of the "Proud Boys" is bogus. If they wanted to anything for children, he could trying doing actually useful, which then allow them to become "Proud Men".
