We really do not have to worry about Antifa.

The morons are lucky there were cops around. They might not have gotten out alive otherwise.

Keep poking the bear. It’s like they want to get their asses kicked and get Trump re-elected.

It’s in their interest for Trump to be re-elected. Gives them more of a (self-told) reason to protest.

Yep. Plenty of legit cultural nihilism on the left. Virtually no legit cultural nihilism on the right.

The more they push for lawlessness and mob rule the more votes for Trump.

Seriously...What’s the endgame? Is anybody out there saying “You know, I was really thinking about voting for Trump, but after seeing these young men and women burn down our cities, steal from our businesses, and maim and injure people, I can’t help but reconsider my position.”

I think it is the threat of more if Trump is re-elected. Fine. Bring it. They are outnumbered and outgunned. I strongly suspect he will take a stronger stance after the election and should. He just needs to avoid a Tianenmen Square or Kent State. But I would support the use of National Guard troops to restore order.

[Larry]

I think they need to roll into Seattle and Portland with heavy artillery and start killing the bastards. One night of that and it would end all these riots.

[Mik]

Terrible idea.

Lol yeah that would backfire x100, Larry

That's what I was thinking, too.

Heh. The Sturgis police could have gone all Portland with them and stayed out of the fracas. A peaceful protest encounter done Sturgis-style.

The Antifa group would have been begging for some social distancing.

Maybe they are thinking, "Vote for Biden or get 4 more years of this".
