Antifa Protesters Arrested in Chicago After They Attack Cops Outside Courthouse
2017-08-18
[DAILYWIRE] Three members of Antifa
...purveyors of mindless lefty revolution...
were arrested Wednesday night after they tangled with Chicago police outside of a courthouse on the city's northwest side.

The "protesters" were clad all in black with black bandanas covering their faces. They claimed to be there to demonstrate against a man facing arraignment inside the courtroom, who they said had ties to "white supremacist" and "right wing" groups.

But what started out as a run-of-the-mill leftist rally featuring the same, old, tired, scripted chants ("Racist, sexist, anti-gay, Neo-Nazis go away!"), ended in a melee after Chicago police showed up to try to contain the demonstration. Protesters had wandered away from public property and blocked an intersection, making notoriously terrible Chicago traffic even worse for innocent bystanders, and causing havoc for local residents.

When law enforcement showed up, they found themselves in a tussle with the "anti-fascist" protesters, who used epithets like "pig" to entice Chicago police into a brawl. After police easily subdued their leftist attackers, three were led away in handcuffs.

#8  Theymanaged to vandalize a statue in Atlanta that they thought was a monument to the Confederacy, but was actually a "peace statue" designed to promote a sense of healing.

Soros is probably saying, "You just can't get good hired help these days. Don't they teach them anything in school anymore?"

#5  Once the police and sheriffs start enforcing the rule of law the chaos will subside.

You forgot the 'politician factor', which from past practice, tends to favor groups like Antifa.

#4  Arrest them promptly once the violence and disorder begin. Once the police and sheriffs start enforcing the rule of law the chaos will subside.

#3  These are all the non-violent Democrats we were told were at CVille.

Amazing the similarity between the left and the Paleos.

#1  to a Chicago cop who has to deal with some of the nation's toughest gang criminals, the Antifas probably seem like crash test dummies
