    The left wing media has gone into full propaganda mode. How could any rational, educated, reasonable or person of intellect call people who willfully and intentionally engage in violence 'peace activists?' They knew they were lying the moment they wrote it and had to go back and change it.

    Now that they really showed their true colors (not there was any doubt) I'm going to find it difficult to trust Reuters when they report on American politics and social issues.

    Dude, it was a tweet. A very innocuous tweet, too. Stop letting "The Hill" get you so riled up over nothing.

    Here is another report:
    Two people were arrested for aggravated assault and one person was arrested for criminal damage, Phoenix Police Chief Jeri Williams said at a news conference. The fourth arrest was made due to an unrelated warrant, Williams said. Two officers were treated for heat exhaustion, Williams said, but no officers were injured during the protests.

    So the hill report may be a little off. Plus, 3 people being arrested does not mean the whole crowd was violent.

    The antifa people are worse than the KKK.

    They actually think they are legitimate.

    Would it be ok to go into hysterics over 100 year old statues or Trump chalkings and bumper stickers?

    Didn't Ghandi throw rocks, bottles, and urine at police?

    What? He didn't?

    Nope, but the alt right did. They also yelled racist and antisemitic phrases. They violated their permit with violent actions. Luckily, most rational people condemned them alone.

    Anti-fa routinely throws rocks, bottles, and urine at every rally. It's their MO.

    White supremacists, KKK, and neo-Nazis look for fights too. They have killed more people than antifa.

    I don't want to give antifa the chance to even the score of the dead. We can take out Neo-Nazis and antifa.

    They're all scum.

    Normal people should have rallies against anti-fa, KKK, Nazis, etc. It would be fun to show up with bottles and baseball bats and beat them all to a pulp. But then we'd be as bad as they are. I guess we just have to watch it on TV, or just turn the TV off.

    According to Huff & Puff the KKK killed 3,960 blacks. More people were murdered in Chicago during the Obama years. Does that make Chicago racist? How about the people and media who just don't care?

    I'm sure some of the AltLefTaliban thugs are fine people - just ask anyone who sold them pepper spray, gasoline, baseball bats...

    Wow, do you even know what racism is? Or are you just that sympathetic towards the KKK? Are you a KKK member that wishes to normalize their behavior?

    Yes, the guys in hoods, armor and swinging baseball bats are 'peace' activists. They are terrorists and the Fake News Media are collaborators

    CNN Gets DESTROYED by Their Own Charlottesville Panel “The Media is Not Being Honest”
    .
    Very fake news CNN featured a panel of six Trump supporters Wednesday morning and they all pushed back on host Alisyn Camerota’s persistent argument that somehow President Trump did something wrong by condemning both sides for violence and hatred following the protests in Charlottesville.
    The entire panel defended President Trump and expressed their distrust of the media.
    [​IMG]
    Camerota started out by asking how many of the panelists were troubled by President Trump’s response to Charlottesville. Not one of the panelists raised their hands.

    “I didn’t see anything wrong with it. I mean he addressed the problem. I mean let’s face reality, there are problems on both sides,” said one of the panelists.

    Camerota was clearly frustrated that anyone would come to such a logical conclusion so she pushed back.

    “Do you think neo-Nazi’s and white supremacists are the same as those who are protesting them?” asked Camerota.

    The panelist shot back with an excellent answer, “I think it’s ridiculous to have me choose between Hitler and Stalin which is what I consider what both groups are.”

    Camerota once again stuck up for the violent communist Antifa members and got shut down again.

    “The Antifa group to me is totally Stalin-ish. If you’re willing to set fires and burn places to the ground, that doesn’t seem like a very peaceful group to me,” the panelist said.

    Camerota played a clip of white supremacists chanting slurs against Jews and the panelists pointed out that the majority of Trump supporters do not share those views. There are over 60 million Trump voters, why does the media continue to show a handful of neo-Nazi’s as a representation of the entire voter base?

    Camerota continued to demonize the white supremacists and romanticize violent, masked Antifa while the panel destroyed her narrative. The panel said they simply don’t trust the mainstream media. They get their news from alternative media and of course Camerota attempted to discredit that as well.

    What's worse, racism or death? I see you're in the camp that just doesn't care about thousands of murders. And do you know what? I don't give a crap about racism because you guys have turned everything into racism to the point it's now meaningless.

    And you libs crack me up.a few months ago it was trannyphobia, before that it was homophobia, before that it was Islamophobia, before that it was misogyny, And on and on and on. You guys invent more victims than there are victims.

    I think one of you has pointed out something that's destroying black communities today.

    Hint: it isn't the KKK.

    Trump has made a number of commitments to clean up the failing inner cities, I hope this is a promise he is able to keep. The Left that runs these cities certainly isn't going to help, and the look at how much of the political violence this last year or so has been coming from the Left:

    The Police have stepped aside and allowed horrendous acts of criminal violence against event participants while rarely arresting anyone committing these heinous acts.

    These violent groups, like Fascist Antifa, are now inciting murder at these events. Who is allowing this to happen? Will the FBI please investigate these groups and determine who is ordering the police to allow them to commit violence?

    In March 2016, Presidential candidate Donald Trump was forced to shut down his campaign rally in Chicago due to violent rioters making it unsafe for his followers to attend the event.

    On June 2, 2016, Trump supporters were assaulted, spit on, beaten, cold-cocked, egged, chased, tackled and bloodied as they left the San Jose Trump rally by mobs of far left, Mexican nationalist, Socialist, SEIU and anarchist thugs.

    One female Trump supporter was egged and spit on by hundreds of Mexican nationalists chanting “F*ck you!” Another Trump supporter was cold-cocked with a bag of rocks while walking to his car and left bleeding.

    ** San Jose Firefighters ABANDONED the same White Teen Trump Supporter As He Was Beaten by the Mob

    [​IMG]

    The San Jose Police released documents on the planned brutal assault of Trump supporters. An undercover San Jose Officer reported after the rally that throughout the afternoon and evening he watched several individuals wearing “Trump” articles of clothing getting punched, kicked and pushed. But the police did very little to protect them.

    A Liberal professor by the name of Eric Canton beat Trump supporters WITH A BIKE LOCK while siding with Antifa at the Berkeley Pro-Trump rally. The police were told to stand down in Berkeley.

    The police also were told to stand down last year in Baltimore when Black Lives Matter rioters tore down that American city.

    On August 22nd Antifa thugs once again attacked Trump supporters leaving a Trump rally.

    And we have the Fake News Media running glamour pieces on BLM and Antifa and claiming they are "peace activists" and that those they attack have it coming because they "wrong-think"?
