Increasing Violence Associated With Antifa And BLM

BY Herschel Smith
4 years, 3 months ago

Today I remarked that “As this progresses, they will begin to use terror tactics. I loosely predict that in the future we will see some guy wearing a MAGA hat beheaded in the road by some Antifa insurgent using a sword.  He’ll be all covered up in black, unable to be identified, and besides, the Portland DA will ignore it since he is Antifa.”

Some may have found this extreme.  I really don’t think so.  Andy Ngo doesn’t just link feed in his Twitter account.  He goes out and gets the feed himself as well.  These are some of the latest posts.

The tactics are becoming more violent by the day.  Beatings, arson, threats of shooting and other violence, beatings of random drivers and passengers, and so on.

The other thing this brings up is that this has all been a catalyst for turning gangs loose on the American cities.  Inner cities are becoming gang land.

Stay away from these crowds, but if you have to drive in what may be proximity to them, carry a weapon.  Always carry a weapon.  Given that the gangs have been turned loose, you may have to use it, and you’ll have to use it better than they do.

By the way, The Post Millennial identified the thug who issued the beat down of the driver the other day.  Now with the Portland DA being aligned with Antifa, we’ll see if charges are ever brought.

    Did the victim die from injuries sustained by the mob?
    All I saw was conflicting info and I doubt this will be on the news at all unless Tucker brings it up.

    Re: “The tactics are becoming more violent by the day. Beatings, arson, threats of shooting and other violence, beatings of random drivers and passengers, and so on.”

    As this asymmetric conflict continues, and the ugliness of the rioters, arsonists, thugs and other criminals and terrorists manifests itself to a greater and greater extent, the potential for positive change may come our way. How? In the form of people who finally wake up – after years of sleep-walking through life – to the events occurring around them. People who recognize it could have been them, but for the grace of God, being beaten down there in the street.

    The old quip states that a conservative is a liberal who has just been mugged. Surely, kind and decent people will be revolted by these lawless and wantonly violent acts – and finally stand up to be counted on the side of civilization and of right-and-wrong.

    This nation’s greatest military theorist and one of its finest warriors, the late Colonel John Boyd (USAF), taught us that in conflict, the moral level of war is superior to the mental, and both are above the physical (kinetic) in terms of importance. Boyd studied the history of conflict from ancient times to the present, and he noted that on many occasions the underdog was able to best an apparently stronger opponent by levering the importance of this hierarchy. Moral > Mental > Physical.

    Antifa, BLM, and RevCom (ABR) and their handlers and strategists have designed their operations carefully such that they will appear in the best light, and their foes in the least-complementary light. “We are good; they are evil,” they want the public to believe, never mind that this is a precise inversion of the truth. In other words, they are trying to claim the moral high ground.

    ABR have a powerful ally in the deep-state and its media propaganda apparatus, but the idea that they hold the moral high ground is a lie, one tenable only as long as they can control events and shape the perception (narrative) of those events. Each time one of their thugs beats someone innocent up, or burns down a business that had done nothing to harm anyone, they are creating enemies – people who have been “red-pilled” with the bitter truth. People who will tell their friends and family the truth about who/what these “demonstrators” actually are.

    It is vital that those on the side of civilization, the rule of law and right and wrong – maintain discipline, and not stoop to the level of the opposition. It ought to be assured that everything is done to keep the moral high ground, and prevent the opposition from taking it instead. Hearts-and-minds, folks, hearts and minds….

    (Part 2)

    During the Maiden Square uprising in the Ukraine, deep-state operatives were brought in when tensions were at their highest, and some of them were stationed strategically around the area as snipers, with orders to fire upon command into personnel on both sides of the barricades, protestors and government security forces alike. Why both sides? So as to inflame the passions of people on both sides, and incite the desire for revenge and “payback” for the harm done to their friends and colleagues.

    This was a textbook example of a false-flag attack/operation, one whose objective was the moral level of war. The hearts and minds of those taking part.

    The deep-state black bag artists were successful in the Ukraine, insofar as they were able to ratchet up tensions to a degree necessary to topple the Yanukovich government (one they wanted removed), allowing them to install a puppet ruler much more amenable to their bosses in the new world order.

    Similar operations are certain to be attempted in this conflict. Our side must not be swayed by such transparent attempts at psychological manipulation. The outcome of the struggle may depend on resisting such attacks.

    Tucker led with this story last night(Monday). He is truly a national treasure and I’m surprised that he is still on Fox. Maybe because his is the most watched news show on cable has something to do with it. What’s next? Possibly the sniper attacks referenced above or perhaps IEDs? There is only one way to stop this and we all know what that is. Stay safe!

    I do hope the rioting continues until at least November 4th.
    The casualties are mostly the inner city businesses and citizens who have voted for people that have run their communities into the ground. I have no sympathy. The time for that is long gone.

    And please, people. Stay. Away. From. Crowds!

    According to Andy Ngo -who is an incredibly brave man – the victim’s name is Adam Haner
    and GoFundMe has been set up for Adam by his brother.

    Breitbart said the following this morning:
    “The victim…, came into contact with rioters earlier that night when he first attempted to protect a trans woman from getting beaten, and then tried to protect another woman. He drove off in his truck after rioters threatened him and then crashed sometime later. At which point, rioters in the area converged on him and robbed him before eventually beating him.”

    Suspicious explosion in Baltimore:
    There was a large house explosion in Northwest Baltimore about 2 weeks ago. It was so
    powerful that it also leveled the two adjacent rowhomes, killed 2 people and injured more
    than 6 others. They later found the body of a black college student in the home that had the
    explosion. There was much media harping on a gas explosion but BGE coshed that story
    after determining it was not their equipment. They said it must be on the users side of the
    gas line. There has been not a peep about bombs or stored explosives which makes me
    wonder why the preliminary findings of the Fire Marshall have yet to be mentioned.

    I think, for the most part, this crap will stay regional. A group of Antifa showed up at Sturgis. Big mistake. Last week Antifa tried to raid a Latinos For Trump gathering in Southern California. They got their asses handed to them. Four Antifa are still in the hospital. This is Antifa checking out their next battle grounds. It’s not happening. They will parish where Government does not protect them.

    What is needed are the shirttail men. From https://sipseystreetirregulars.blogspot.com/2009/09/praxis-best-shtf-gun-ask-shirttail-men.html this:

    “shirt-tail men, with their cursed twisted guns, the most fatal widow-and-orphan-makers in the world.”
    They were; they hated war. Fighting was a business they would be done with, and the only way they knew to end it was to kill as many men as possible. They could then return to the real sruggle for more and better land on which to raise their families and get ahead in the world.

    The principle is still valid.

    The word is; driver of that white pickup that was attacked, Adam Haner, has died.

    @Fred
    As of 9 hours ago, Oregon Live is reporting “Adam Haner, the man who was beaten, has been released from a hospital and is recovering.”
    FWIW
    YMMV
