terrorism defined: the unlawful use or threat of violence especially against the state or the public as a politically motivated means of attack or coercion Along with any and all extremist groups on the right or left that use violence to promote or advance their political cause. Protests and civil disobedience are not violent acts. Even having a few scuffles with a few cops isn't a bad thing. Burning, looting, shooting, etc. ALL terrorism. |

Would depend on their tactics to me rather than their cause. I do believe they’ve crossed the line before and may again. |

If I decided just for gits and shiggles to go burn down the square of the little town I live in because I think the Mayor is a poopy head, I would be a terrorist |

Arrest, convict and imprison them. Their actions were the severe minority that day. Anyone saying different is a blithering idiot. |

I still can't get over the fact that the Proud Boys started as a joke. Gavin McGinnis made fun of a producer on a show he used to do. Here's a link to the story told on the JRE podcast.

taken together, all the unique groups like Proud Boys, Oath Keepers et al, share a dangerous and destructive mindset: white supremacy and anti government...neither philosophies that promise a bright future for America |

The whole Trump movement at this point is akin to scientology or worse at this point. |

one of the North Texas guys who was (recently) arrested was very upset that anyone would dare to think this was a staged leftist production!

Very upset that anyone would dare link him and his gang with Antifa... That’s what you would expect an undercover Antifa who got exposed to say. |
