    What is "bear spray"? I heard that skunks spray but bears?

    Serously what we have here is two extremes butting heads. Rightbwing knuckleheads vs left wing knuckleheads. Guess what they have in common!

    The leftists beat up on a harmless Asian guy last time. What makes you think the others are 'right wing' rather than good people who only want to prevent more violence, given that the Portland Police were AWOL last time? https://defensemaven.io/bluelivesma...ith-crowbar-bats-mace-2ctUAyDtGUWJvao37z20oQ/

    Bear spray is a bear repellent not unlike pepper spray, except it is stronger, has more range, and often isn't banned by city code while pepper spray may be.

    Antifa is a fan-seen here using bear spray against an african American.

    No, it was pretty much a spot on response... So good, I'll repeat it again...

    " the right has no problem condemning its extremists"

    Just add a rimshot and a martini and you are ready for Vegas...

    Was the African -American threatening someone?

    Ok so Antifa uses Anti-Bear spray. How interesting. Hope that there are no long term effects from the bear spray such as could be the case with tear gas.

    Only to sit in front of their TV sets to watch an Asian guy getting beaten up by left wingers. Are you for it, against it, or don't really know?

    Care to back up your snark? I can show you in this very thread how leftists won't condemn their extremists; where are your facts?

    Sounds like you are blaming the victim. Is it because he's black?

    Both pepper spray and bear spray are based on the same active chemicals as tear gas.

    Another example, here young hispanic kids are pepper sprayed.

    The Right is all about condemning extremism. Just ask Tucker Carlson.

    When he gets back from "vacation".

    I would need to see the facts not just what you are posting here. Was a guy beaten up? Who was he beaten up by? Did he pose a threat to anyone? Did he attack anyone? Was action against him defensive?

    Well I'll have to think about your take on it. Lots of stuff to think through there. But it does appear that more and more, ANTIFA is the left's version of the KKK. :)

    Did Carlson refuse to condemn the El Paso shooter when asked? You know, like AOC refused to condemn the ICE firebombing when directly asked? No, before it happened, he said that there isn't a white supremacist hiding behind every bush (a ridiculous notion which is Antifa's excuse for existing). A far cry from refusing to condemn specific cases of violent extremism.

    He experienced a brain bleed as a result of the attack, and his camera equipment was stolen.

    Here is the incident...

    The KKK was the terrorist arm of the Democrat Party after they lost the Civil War to the Republicans. ANTIFA hasn't sunk to the lawlessness of the Klan, yet, but, we should be dealing more forcefully with their lawlessness before they start killing people, if they haven't already.

    Dayton shooter Connor Betts may be antifa's first mass killer

    Are you trying to minimize its use? You might try spraying it on the face of your fellow shoppers next time you're in the supermarket to see what their reactions might be.

    Both the KKK and Antifa are arms of the Democratic Party. Neither group has ever been associated with Republicans. Both also make it a point to hide their faces, though not in shame.

    What would a person have to do to be deemed a "white supremacist" and be deserving of death?

    Would the killings be done through vigilantism? Or would this be sanctioned by the government with due process?

    Would people of other races who thought their race was supreme also be subject to death? Or only whites?

    Would the definition you give for "white supremacist" also apply correspondingly to other "race supremacists"?
