          "Police" decked out in full tactical gear snatched Pettibone off the street. He happened to be dressed in black. If black clothing is a common denominator in the disappearances, then Trump/Barr are trying to fuel their "Antifa is a real thing" narrative.

          Yep I would suggest all protestor dress like they’re attending a Pride parade. Plus their bright clothing will stand out if arrested.

          And note the specific use of the legal term 'violent' in their description of the protesters. It's ment to place them in a legal category that initiates "enhanced" punitive measures. It's not rhetoric.
