| Antifa Protester Yvette Felarca Says Violence Against The Far-Right Is ‘Not A Crime’ |
| 2017-08-20 |
| [DAILYCALLER] Yvette Felarca, the Berkeley area school teacher and myrmidon left-wing protester responsible for organizing the riot at the University of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, Berkeley in February 2017, claims that violence against the far-right is "not a crime." Felarca, who belongs to "By Any Means Necessary," a far-left group, is currently facing assault charges after she was caught on video assaulting a white supremacist during a July 2016 rally in Sacramento, Cali. The school teacher and her compatriots engaged in violent festivities against members of the far-right Traditional Worker’s Party, which had a permit to march in the city. The violence between the two groups resulted in a number of assaults and multiple stabbings. In July 2017, police charged Felarca with "assault by means of force likely to inflict great bodily injury, participating in a riot, and inciting a riot." As reported by Huffington Post on Wednesday during her arraignment, Felarca described her actions as a form of self-defense, and therefore "not a crime." "Standing up against fascism ...a political system developed in Italy symbolized by the Roman fasces-- thin reeds, each flimsy in itself but unbreakable when bound into a bundle. The word is nowadays thrown around by all sorts of people who have no idea what they're talking about... and the rise of Nazism and fascism in this country is not a crime," she said. "We have the right to defend ourselves." |

| #4 Yvette Felarca claims that violence against the far-right is “not a crime. One also could turn that around and say violence against the left is not a crime. Some old bromide about toothless blind people escapes me this a.m. but seems to be apropos. |

| #3 CNN digs up satire, brings it back to life, then kills it again. "Activists seek peace through violence." |
