UN Petition to label Antifa a terrorist group reaches 146k - In only 4 days

So since Antifa is violent as fuck and a bunch of fascist twats, this makes me pretty happy. Let's see if it can actually be followed through with though.

Because they are not the antifags' equivalent. They are the SJWs equivalent on the right, just with pepe memes instead of horrible tranny OCs. You were trying to think about klansmen.

Ok, i see the problem with my statement

Considering the, ah, quality of your previous posts, I don't think you do.

Not that I disagree with the sentiment being expressed about ANTIFA, but I feel the need to argue that there shouldn't be a democratic process (i.e. a popularity contest) over what groups get designated as terrorist organizations by the state. Anyone who thinks that the number of signatures on this petition should inspire any government response should probably consider the implications of that and who else might end up on the receiving end of similar petitions.

There isn't an organization called "Antifa" anyway. It's an ideology. The general concept is just not liking fascism, which nobody should. The problem is specific individuals organizing and recruiting for particular acts of terror, like Eric Clanton. He is quite evidently a terrorist in methods as well as ideology.

So you couldn't really just declare "antifa" to be terrorist any more than you could declare "white supremacy" terrorist. You could, however, declare the Aryan Brotherhood a gang. Or even some unnamed conspiracy between, say, Eric Clanton and Does 1-99.

This doesn't have the legal impact some people may think it does. It doesn't just magically give you probable cause for search warrants or let you arrest anyone who expresses anti-fascist sentiments, white supremacist sentiments, or whatever.

However, it can state a law enforcement priority and that certain types of crime or other illegal activity are to be prioritized for investigation and enforcement.

In this case, antifa has been allowed to become an absolute menace to innocent bystanders and the public at large because of deliberate law enforcement inactivity, and this needs to stop. Enough is enough.

Or grow a pair and unelect the dumb commie fucks. It just seems to me that a campaign ad with video of the city in flames while the mayor sucks cocks might actually get some traction in these places.

Well I am fortunate that I live in an area where even if we have a Democrat mayor, this stuff wouldn't fly in Kentucky

And the Klan hasn't had any real power for over two decades.

There are however, a bunch of smaller groups going by [insert city name or nickname] ANTIFA that have meetings and websites and contact lists and then go out and physically attack people. Similar to what the modern day Klan is theres no overarching group but a bunch of randos who claim the name as their own.

New Jersey's dept. of Homeland Security labeled Antifa domestic terrorists (under anarchist extremists), so I don't see why the federal government can't.

I feel you, but if @King Kong... with wings? Says he gets the difference I think he deserves the benefit of the doubt
