    Below is a nice video of their arrests. Pay attention to the crying snowflakes in the airport, its a good watch.

    Yet 9+ months of terrorism from Biden supporters is ignored by the Dems. Haha

    You mean the riots incited by white supremacist's pretending to be Aunt-eefa?

    'Umbrella Man' who broke windows at George Floyd protest in Minneapolis, is a white supremacist, police say - The Washington Post


    Erika I. Christensen, a Minneapolis police arson investigator who wrote the affidavit, said that his “sole aim” was to provoke discord.

    “Until the actions of the person your affiant has been calling ‘Umbrella Man,’ the protests had been relatively peaceful,” she said. “The actions of this person created an atmosphere of hostility and tension.”


    Christensen wrote that “Umbrella Man” is also a “known associate” of the Aryan Cowboys, a group described by the Anti-Defamation League as a white supremacist prison gang based mainly out of Minnesota and Kentucky.

    You got suckered again, because of your dislike of black people. Predictable.

    Melania gets the thumbs down also:

    Melania Trump Is the Least Popular First Lady of the United States in Modern History


    She had the highest disapproval rating of any modern-day first lady…by a lot.
    By Emily Tannenbaum

    January 24, 2021



    ALEX EDELMAN


    Donald Trump is not the only one that left the White House with a record-breaking disapproval rating. Melania Trump is officially the least popular first lady in polling history.

    No proof the "Umbrella Man" was a White supremacist. They won't even reveal his name. The liberal propaganda machine CNN has the same line, but the WP left out a part. On CNN it says, "The warrant does not label them as a White supremacist group, but describes them as a "known prison gang out of Minnesota and Kentucky." On its Facebook page, the group says it does not care, "about a person's color." That's odd for a White supremacy group. I guess they are diverse. So one man breaking windows, after the rioting/looting already started, is to blame for causing all Biden supporters across the US to riot and loot? Amazing. Leave it to a liberal to inject race where it isn't being talked about. You got suckered again because of your dislike of America and White people. FYI, ANTIFA is mostly made up of White people. Do you need some videos of CHAZ? Let me guess, White supremacists created that too? Haha.

    I didn't realize White supremacists had so many Black members. Here are some of the White supremacists rioting/looting a Wal-mart

    The GOP has Candace Owens and Daniel Cameron, so its not out of the question. Just another video you post of a MAGA incited mob. Predictable.

    Those Democrats really sound terrible from what you keep saying. Its going to be a long 8 years for you with them in the White House, huh?

    What is fucked up about gender and biological sex being totally separate concepts? What is fucked up about people wanting to and being accepted for rubbing their genitals with the genitals of whoever makes them happy?

    Like if being a dude with a wiener who wants to have ladies without wieners touch your wiener makes you happy...then great! If it doesn't...then find what does make you happy. Either way, shouldn't be judged, mocked, ridiculed, harassed, jailed, or physically intimidated for it. And before anyone tries to freak out...no you don't have to change if you don't feel a need to. You don't have to like it either. Further, no one is greasing up a slippery slope for kids and animals. Those unable to give consent are and should be protected by laws and oversight.

    Explain how MAGA incited the people in the video to loot. You liberals always blame others.

    What White supremacy group are you claiming they are part of?

    According to liberals, gender means what a person pretends to be.

    Welcome back. We missed your valued insight and intelligent commentary on the board.

    What white supremacy group do you claim to be part of? Come on, this is a safe space. Its OK for you to tell the truth.

    Few people have a problem with others calling themselves what they want, or dressing how they want, or screwing who they want. That is an imaginary bias created by the left.

    The problems start to come up because, as you so demonstratively declared, sex is a biological trait and gender is a psychological trait. So when people start to insist that they are the same - e.g., asserting that someone's psychological traits should be used in situations that were clearly set up based on biological ones - it's abusing the way it was supposed to work. It's taking advantage of the leverage gained from "live and let live," which most people agree with, and twisting it into "give me what I want, or else," to demand things that people don't agree with, and they don't appreciate that.

    "I mentally feel like a female - let me on the girls' track team." ... "I mentally feel like a Native American. Where's my share of the casino profits?" One will get you praised and open doors for you according to the liberal slate of ideas; the other will get you canceled and ridiculed. But they are the same statement.

    The slippery slope is not equality or sexuality - it is disingenuous tricks like this, and the bounds of overall liberal stupidity (which seems to be at another all-time high).

    Finally, people who are neither bigoted, nor freaked out, nor afraid, do not like being labeled as bigoted, freaked out, and afraid. When you try to boss people around by hurling epithets, the response you typically can expect is "screw you." There is a fundamental lesson in this from which the left would benefit greatly.

    Never called anyone bigoted or whatever.

    Nice attempt to make an argument for me that I wasn't making.

    Try some basic reading comprehension instead of just looking for excuses to fly off the handle.

    I asked a question about what the poster thought was fucked up about the video they posted. Can't have a conversation if you don't understand the other point of view.

    Well, you do all of those things all the time, so I figured you'd appreciate the sentiment.

    Deflect, dismiss, resort to personal attacks. A well-worn strategy when you've got nothing. As usual.

    Nailed. I am well known for my highly specific and deeply personal attacks on individual posters. It has been my go-to move for some time now.

    You lefties going to condemn this shit or do you only condemn this kind of stuff when right-wingers. Though since it's left-wingers doing the violence, I'm sure there is a good reason for it.

    No, you conspiracy theorist, it's just an idea. Lashing out like this means they have legitimate concerns that you need to take seriously. Besides, it's just one isolated incident, it's just a few broken windows, right? Are you a fascist? Or just an angry white dude who's scared to death of being marginalized?

    Yep. Also will anyone who wanted trump impeached for the capital riots give a shit about this act of terrorism? I'd wait for it to happen but I imagine it never will

    Re: What has happened to the Democratic party?

    SOunds like shit got really real in Portland: https://thepostmillennial.com/breaki...nk-in-portland

    "Demonstration Leads to One Arrest for Damaging Property Downtown (Photo) - 03/11/21
    A demonstration led to some property damage and one arrest in Downtown Portland.

    "On Thursday, March 11, 2021 at about 2:24p.m., Central Precinct officers were dispatched to a report of a group of trespassers in the lobby of an office building in the 1300 block of Southwest 5th Avenue. Officers arrived and found about 30 people refusing to leave, some smoking inside, some with pets. The situation escalated when people began damaging property, including a television (photo) and the front doors to the building.

    Officers later located a suspect on the steps of the Federal Courthouse, 1000 SW 3rd Avenue, where they arrested him. He resisted the arrest, and an officer was punched in the face.

    Darby M. Howard, 22, was arrested (photo) for Criminal Mischief in the First Degree and Resisting Arrest."

    So we can take the Portland PD's account or Andy Ngo a known ummm....sure we can go with journalist (although propagandist who lies his ass off in order to spur sales of his book is closer to the mark)...who was only able to get his version of the story posted on the niche website he serves as an editor for.

    I am also a journalist. I wrote a story about things in my hometown in chalk on the sidewalk.

    Oh yeah, that's right. It must have been totally peaceful except for one or two bad apples. Probably those white supremacists trying to make them look bad again. The liberal protesters were all being totally reasonable, as usual. Just chanting for justice and holding candles like they always do. Because liberal protesters totally have a track record of being non-violent, especially in Portland. Why is everyone trying to unfairly cast them in a negative light?

    And you actually believe this garbage. Crazy person. Seriously, what a hapless dupe.

    So your position is that the Portland PD are lying?

    Clearly it was not "totally peaceful" the cops were deployed, made arrests, and have an open investigation. But it is hardly the sphincter clenching moment of domestic terrorism that propagandists would have us believe so we can buy their book.

    No, my position is that you're a real party-line guy, which in this day and age means you are a total sucker who will selectively believe anything that you think makes the left look like the good guys.

    I have no doubt that if The Party said 2+2=5, you would be the first one in here lecturing us all about how aykchually, researchers are now saying that numbers are fluid, because they're a societal construct, but that's all a bit much for us to comprehend. Basically, you will believe whatever they tell you, and then turn around and give everyone a pompous lecture about it. What a joke.

    I'm a reality and facts kinda guy. Something many on here have lost touch with.

    I merely pointed out that the fact is that Ngo is super motivated to rile people up over the "Antifa is a massive terrorist threat to America" angle to sell his widely criticized book/pack of lies.

    The recent events that Ngo "reported" take on a specific version in ONLY his reporting. The actual PD involved and other local reporting paints a far different picture of the events. So I ask again...is everyone but Andy Ngo lying? Because if not...he certainly is. And often.

    Anfifa seems like they sorta suck and kinda don't really do anything that actually impacts anything good or bad. Anyone who is scared of their potential as a "terrorist" organization really needs to buck up and find something useful to worry about.

    You could say the same about all these imaginary white supremacists that the left is always seemingly conjuring up out of thin air. But oh no, they're lurking in every dark corner and waiting to jump out from behind every bush. Why, it's the number one threat to the country, The Party said so.

    See, I'm a reality and facts kinda guy. And what I saw over the past twelve months was an unprecedented amount of violence that was carried out almost entirely by liberal extremists, and almost none was perpetrated by anyone else. Those are the facts. That the latest episode of violence was less severe is not really that meaningful. Leftists are the party of violent trash, and as usual, you are defending the violent trash. As I said, a real party-line guy.

    So...we have you and YouTube cartoonists on one hand and the Director of the FBI testifying regarding the activities of white hate groups to Congress last week on the other.

    Again, what you want me to take away is that your facts are correct and the Director of the FBI lied to Congress? That is in addition to the Portland PD. The list of people that have to be actively lying and part of an organized cabal in order for your POV to be correct grows daily. Seemingly exponentially.

    Further, a call for adherence to the actual facts of specific events is hardly a defense of one side or the the other. But, in order to consistently cast yourself as the aggrieved minority party bravely resisting the hordes of evil deluded forces of oppression - you have to consistently exaggerate and contort the statements of others.

    If your theory requires that the entire law enforcement apparatus of a city, a state, and the federal government is engaging in a coordinated campaign deceit in order to cover-up the activities of this group or that group...you know how crazy that sounds right?

    See, it's just like I said. You'll believe whatever you're told to. Listen to what you're saying and the accusations you're making, you sound like a crazy person.

    Despite your very bold assertions, I don't have to believe some huge and ever-expanding group of people are "lying" or "part of an organized cabal." The simplest explanation is usually the correct one. The FBI director knows what the people employing him want to hear, so that's what he tells them, the end. The rest is just the facts.

    What are the facts, anyway? That white supremacists are a grave threat to the country? Well, I guess that would explain the roughly zero incidents involving them, as well as why they have almost no interest or support from anyone. Those are the facts.

    Meanwhile, what do we have on the left? Repeated incidents of public violence by high-profile hate groups. Hundreds of events over the course of many months. Those are the facts. Nobody's disputing them, it doesn't require that the police are lying, most of them are on video. It doesn't really matter whether the one most recent incident was big or small. That's just a token that you're trying to make into the whole argument. Well, it's not.

    What the facts are is that there are groups of violent left-wing shitheads out there who are far more of a problem than any imagined "white supremacist" threat. You downplay one and pump up the other, because you bought into the slate of ideas and that's what you were told to think.

    But it's a complete joke. You come off looking like a dog who's viciously defending his food bowl from passers-by, and doesn't even know they're not interested in taking it, and also there's no food in the bowl anyway. Or, like I said before, the boxer who turns around and beats the shit out of the turnbuckle for 12 rounds and then thinks he's won. All that rather than admit the truth, which is that the left are the ones who are violent and dangerous.
