    These violent Brown Shirts ANTIFA types ate highlighting what it would be like to live under Marxist tyranny that letting democrats gain control would usher into America. Voters are paying attention and incidents such as this serve to increase Trumps margin of victory.



    "the conservative group Team Save America organized the event to protest Twitter, which it argues censors free speech. They planned to rally at United Nations Plaza before moving the protest to Twitter's headquarters a few blocks away. But the event quickly devolved into a shouting match and violence as hundreds of counterprotesters stormed the scene."

    "Video shows one counterprotester punching Philip Anderson, an organizer of the event, knocking one of his teeth out."

    Imagine being so progressive that you counterprotest a free speech event, even punching someone in the mouth, presumably for something they said.

    Fact checking:

    Mostly false.

    not every single counter-protester was violent and a number of pro-Trump demonstrator escaped being attacked and beaten.

    the counter protest was thus mostly peaceful and those who disagree are a threat to our democracy and freedoms and are to be canceled.

    Just as in Facist states throughout history you are not allowed to express opinions not sanctioned by the establishment.

    It was mostly peaceful except for the violence and people getting hurt. The day we dropped bombs on Japan was mostly peaceful too, until it wasn’t :)

    In the video of the punch i only see about 5 dressed in black and a few alt-right guys surrounded by lots of cameras. Looks staged.

    One more thing: If you follow the thread I linked you can see that this guy ticked off a LOT of people in the right extremist groups. Probably set him up.

    ANTIFA showed up to violently confront a peaceful protest.

    Well goody.
    Not every counterprotester was a screaming freak, unable to contain their infantile passions, committing violence.



    Is that like partially pregnant?
    Sorry, I'm laughing really hard right now.

    Mostly.true.

    The fact check of your post reveals you ignored fact.

    No one claimed every single protestor was beaten

    It was not mostly peaceful

    Claiming that SOME escaped the violence proves that the counter protest was MOSTLY violent.

    massive failure for you

    Ya think?

    If it was any more "staged" we would have been given a Playbill.

    From the Link:

    hundreds of alleged Antifa counterprotesters showed up and berated and attacked demonstrators

    "alleged Antifa" (Translation: Trump's Dirty Tricks False Flag Goon Squad).

    I wonder how much they had to pay that guy to allow himself to be "assaulted"?

    Obviously, the Trump Dirty Tricks Squad is paying his Dental Bills, but I wonder how much extra?

    The counter-protester statements are telling:

    I love how they're violent, and then they refuse to accept accountability for their own actions. Kind of like these last four years, orange man bad to blame for everything.
