Topic	Antifa are a bunch of cowards
adjl 08/28/17 5:02:21 PM #47:	Troll_Police_ posted... right, im afraid of the power of your words, so i will react with physical violence Yes, that is indeed the point. Welcome to understanding the issue! It's great, isn't it? Tropic_Sunset posted... Hell, i can't think of a scenario that would make me unwilling to run people over who were willing to drag me from my car other than being physically unable to move it. Most people hesitate when presented with the option to kill people. Specifically, though, I can see somebody not wanting to start driving if there were innocent people in the path of the car. Again, though, if you were already just trying to mow down the crowd, there's no such thing as people you don't want to kill in the crowd. Tropic_Sunset posted... So...the driver in this case, using his car to attack, was using basic strategy? By they were not only using basic strategy, but also minimizing risk? Yep, pretty much. It just wasn't a particularly brave assault to mount, given the very minimal risk to the attacker. Tropic_Sunset posted... Keep in mind that my specific example (which as clarification I do not assume is representative for all antifa, but would condemn them as such for the cowardice I think we agree on that the white supremacist displayed)was certainly not surrounded by multiple dissenters, but was in the midst of people who agreed with him when he attacked with potentially deadly force. As I mentioned earlier, the antifa folks were outnumbered 20 to 1 (2000 to 100). An individual attacker may have had a few allies nearby, but he would definitely have been surrounded by dissenters. Smarkil posted... The message they're attempting to spread will not affect politics and will not affect social change. They're a****s. And virtually everyone in this country knows that. These so-called neo-nazi's have been around since WW2 and they've accomplished exactly jack and s. White nationalist ideals are certainly having an impact on how immigration and trade policies are shaping up in the US, and racists across the country have been emboldened by Trump's election. If Nazis were ever going to influence anything in the US, now's the time. Smarkil posted... How about we just go ahead and say, "You can hit someone if they hit you" and leave it at that? Maybe let's not forgive the violence of Antifa or Neo-Nazi's or PETA or whoever the f just because they're fighting so-called 'bad guys'. Oh, I quite agree. Violence is bad. I just understand the rationale behind the violence, and that it's not something that can really be considered cowardly, because Schmen's oversimplification of "just words" misses the point to a degree that would be comical if not for the realization that a good many people actually believe that. --- This is my signature.
