Antifa

[Droff]

Maybe this should go in another forum but it's more of a carry question from me. In the link, several of these goons are dressed in body armor, helmets and masks, all black. They are open carrying pistols and ARs slung in front of them. Several approach protestors with an opposite view and seem to appear like they are intimidating them before an actual assault happens.

So, dressed as they are, loaded as they are and putting themselves in the situation as they did, how is this legal? (Until the mace showed up to make it assault).
I imagine I'm ignorant but I don't understand why these guys can be geared up like that and still be within the law. Heckuva intimidation factor.

GOONS

As far as their clothing and accessories, I don't think there's any law against how you wanna dress. I see gun people all the time dressed up like they're SEALs about to go downrange on a mission.

I believe open carry is legal in TX...but I wouldn't swear to it. Until they commit a crime there's not much the police can do about it.

ANTIFA, like BLM, are a protected species.

If you think the NWO Deep State is only backing one side - you're completely mistaken.

You have to have two opposing sides to incite fear, hate, and discontent in the masses. I doubt even ANTIFA and BLM are aware that they're just pawns in the game of Socialistic takeover.

I dunno, ask Kyle Rittenhouse. He did the same thing. Went somewhere that people had opposite views, while carrying. Wound up shooting a few folks and being told he was in his rights. Sounds like the same thing with markedly different idealogical lines.

You're seriously trying to equate Rittenhouse and his behavior with the behavior of antifa thugs in the OP?

That's Olympic-quality mental gymnastics right there.

Not a whole lot different from those that want to be seen as “drag queens”

Tell me how I'm wrong. Based on the post and what I know of Rittenhouse, it sounds like the same thing with, as noted above, markedly different ideological lines being the difference.

Unlike Portlandia and others, the Fort Worth P.D. took action and arrested these folks. Yes, the way the ANTIFA folks dressed was for pure intimidation of the protestors. I wonder if the protestors had shown up in greater numbers if there would have been any attempt at intimidation.

FWPD gittin it done!

So what exactly did they do to get to the intimidation factor? If I go to Fort Worth and open carry or have an AR in public, is that not my right? If I go wearing open carrying am I going to be arrested for intimidation when people don't like it?

Edit: NM --- this was circling back to the original article where in clearly it was the mace.

You spelled it wrong. Pantyfa. The little guy who maced the people in Texas and then got arrested whined like the little ***** most of them are. They are so ugly and hate themselves so much they like being with other losers. The green haired fat girl reminds me of the girl at Big Boys telling me I was shooting more than 1 round per second last year.
