Mal_Fet posted...Antifa is a literal domestic terrorist group, soooooo who cares Both of these comments miss the nuanced reality of the situation. The SF bay area Antifa members who showed up at UC Berkeley last year with paramilitary gear and set fire to the campus are domestic terrorists; other regional chapters of Antifa are not. In any case, this bill is terrible. Violence, arson and credible threats are already illegal. The only purpose this bill serves is to grant the government vague and authoritarian powers to lock up protesters. If the GOP's goal is to turn me into a single-issue voter, this bill will certainly do the trick. A vote for this bill is a permanent disqualifier, as far as my vote is concerned. --- BKSheikah owned me so thoroughly in the 2017 guru contest, I'd swear he used the Lens of Truth to pick his bracket.

I do think members of Antifa who engage in violence and intimidation should be arrested and punished, but 15 years might be a tad long for crimes other than the more violent acts.

It's not code for anything. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-mask_laws#United_States There are anti-mask laws in many U.S. states and the District of Columbia.[1] New York State's anti-mask law was enacted in 1845, to provide for public safety after disputes between landlords and tenants.[2] Many anti-mask laws date back to the mid-20th century when states and municipalities, passed them to stop the violent activities of the Ku Klux Klan, whose members typically wore hoods of white linen to conceal their identities.[3][4] In the 21st century those laws have been applied to political protesters such as those affiliated with the Occupy Movement or Anonymous wearing Guy Fawkes masks.[5][6][7][8] In some areas motorcyclists have been arrested using anti-masking laws.[9] Anti-mask laws have also been used against ANTIFA. These laws have been challenged on the grounds that they violate the guarantees of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution to free speech and free association. Some courts have weighed freedom of speech against the public safety interest, and upheld such laws. For example, the Georgia Supreme Court found the law constitutional on the grounds that the wearing of the mask was an act of intimidation and a threat of violence, which is not protected speech.[10] That law has exceptions for holiday celebrations, theatre performances, and occupational safety; the ruling makes it unclear if someone is violating the law if they wear a mask without the intent to threaten violence. A three-judge panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld a New York law on the ground that wearing a Ku Klux Klan mask did not convey a protected message beyond that conveyed by wearing a hood and robe.[2] Other courts have struck down anti-mask laws. For example, Tennesee and Florida state laws have been invalidated on the grounds that they were unconstitutionally broad.[10] An ordinance in Goshen, Indiana, was struck down based on First Amendment doctrine that specifically protects anonymous speech and anonymous association, especially for unpopular groups like the KKK.[2] Liberals are truly a lost cause. This shit already exists in many states and western countries all over the world. Denmark, France, Belgium, Germany, Norway, Sweden etc But now when America tries to pass it country wide, some how it is proof that this is an Authoritarian regime Liberals have completely lost it.

lmfao Im not opposed to the law Im more opposed to an incredibly vague law used to tack extra crimes on people. This effectively makes being apart of a protest and wearing a mask illegal, which would be fine if polices favorite way to disperse people, riot or not is through the use of teargas. So basically you try to protect yourself from said gas, wether youve done anything wrong or not you now risk a 15 year charge --- we rich now but used to be slaves,we pushing whips now we used to be whipped,rockin chains when we used to be in 'em ...

Esrac posted...It's literally a "how to" on setting up a local Antifa group. I disagree, when they share common cause, methods, etc. Like one of the links I provided said, you adopt the antifa banner for your local chapter because it provides a brand recognition that persists between chapters. People form antifa subgroups because they want to partake in the kind of violent resistance and revolution that the overarching movement is about. Regardless, when antifa is specifically about violent resistance to perceived facism, we don't need to hold one local chapter responsible for the violence committed by another. We can hold them each responsible and get a similar result. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

@gamepimp12
I agree. Any law that uses vague descriptors like oppress should never be used in legislation. And the cops should be at these riots to catch the criminals, they should not wait until after the fact. How many Antifa rioters actually got away serving time because they could not be identified? I dont think anyone will be unfairly imprisoned from this law, as they would all just take their masks off. But by revealing your identity, you open yourself up for opposers to target you. If you do nothing criminal, I see no reason that someone in Antifa should get their identity leaked. But thats also the risk of being in public. My issue is with the 100% narrative spun by these mindless sjws. As if this is the first mask law that has ever existed lmfao ... Copied to Clipboard!
