Over Robert Gregory Bowers, the guy who shot people in a synagogue because, you know, the "globalists".
From what I gathered, between the guy saying "But what about antifa?!" (Because you know, they're shooting up churches and synagogues too I guess ) and smearing Ilhan Omar for some reason (Because why not), this guy was not only saying what Bowers did wasn't terrorism (He wouldn't say what it was, but it's "NOT TERRORISM" ) but it almost seemed as though he was saying it should be legal to kill "globalists" (Not quite saying it out loud, but my associate could infer it)
Stay safe out there.

(14,178 posts)The MSM continue to portray Anti-Fascists protesters in the negative light. As well as many Democrats. Even with overwhelming evidence that they are NOT the violent ones. I'm sick of their knee jerk, jump on the bandwagon, reaction to anything Republicans do. Republicans call young idealistic students mostly, who are against the rising tide of fascism that Republicans themselves are promoting, "terrorists". And Democrats just nod in silence, helping to create this new boogeyman ANTIFA! (it sounds so much more evil) .
First they came for the young Anti-Fascist protesters, and I did nothing......

(21,642 posts)drumpf supporters have already killed dozens in terrorists attacks, some have been foiled........... the restraint of the Left to stay the fuck away from these monsters is the only reason why there aren't MANY more deaths.
In a way i'm terrified what will happen the day after the next election when the deplorbles wake up to find out their hero lost a "stolen" (as drumpf will call it) election.

(2,751 posts)When they have nothing, this tactic is employed.
I told a long time friend of mine to get fucked recently. He explained that it is perfectly fine to lock up children in cages at the border since there are troops around the world risking their lives and their children may lose a dad. What does that have to do with innocent children locked in a cage?
They are all fucking parrots! Has FOX taught the morans this petty tactic?

(9,090 posts)all of them know who he is and that trump absorbs and then regurgitates his bullshit, like about antifa, but they don't want to defend him.
antifa has always been an easy target to associate with democrats and liberal issues
say something like "well, that's what limbagh says over and over but he's a lying sack of shit who's never been right about anything except maybe that some liberals are idiots"
