    FYI Portland Police Bureau report on antifa: There were...projectiles thrown at demonstrators and officers. Officers observed sticks, glass bottles, lit road flares, bottles filled with a substance believed to be urine, and gopher gas used as projectiles." https://www.portlandoregon.gov/police/news/read.cfm?id=189533 …

        This must be serious bc Shermer never posts about the far more frequent violence caused by right-wing extremism https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/outlook/2018/09/28/right-wing-warnings-pose-far-more-danger-america-than-left-wing-violence/ … Facts don’t care about your feelings, Mike.

        A deflecting using the whataboutit excuse. Using bad behavior to justify more bad behavior is wrong.

        I agree. Antifa just makes the left look bad and emboldens the nazis and maga thugs. It's childish and uproductive. I can sympathize with wanting to punch a nazi, but going out and starting fights with anyone is unacceptable. What happened to nonviolent resistance?
