The far-left terror-type antifa organization has unleashed a wave of righteous indignation over a proposed law that would bolster penalties on those who engage in violent protests while wearing a mask or facial covering.
That’s called delicious irony.
Antifa members like to parade as anti-fascist, all the while behaving like good little fascists and shuttering all dissenting speech and opinions with the likes of baseball bats and molotov cocktails. But they actually have the nerve now to decry a bill that’s aimed at stopping the fascism in the streets?

Unbelievable.
More, from Breitbart:
The left-wing terrorist organization that calls itself Antifa is “freaking out” over a proposed law that would enhance penalties for anyone who “injures, oppresses, threatens, or intimidates any person” while wearing a disguise or mask.
Throughout our country, and for a number of years now — and primarily because the establishment media fantasizes about, promotes, enflames and approves of the violence committed against the right (naturally, HuffPo opposes the unmasking law) — Antifa has been allowed to run rampant, committing countless acts of violence against everyday, peaceful supporters of President Donald Trump.
Antifa has also been responsible for untold amounts of vandalism and property damage, and targets the alt-right.
The Unmasking Antifa Act of 2018 can mean additional fines and prison terms of up to 15 years. The Hill reports the “bill was introduced by Republican Rep. Dan Donovan (N.Y.) and is co-sponsored by GOP Reps. Pete King (R-NY), Paul Gosar (R-AZ) and Ted Budd (R-NC).”
Ironically, this proposed law is similar to laws passed decades ago in states like Georgia and Alabama to stop another terrorist group formed by far-left Democrats, the Ku Klux Klan. According to the far-left New York Times, Ohio and West Virginia already have similar laws on the books.
Unless it is Halloween, Mardi Gras, or some other kind of celebration, there is no legitimate reason to disguise who you are in public, unless you intend to do something illegal and do not wish to be identified.
And since our establishment media choose to encourage, stoke, dismiss, foment, downplay, and excuse harassment, violence and property damage against Trump supporters; since the media are normalizing and even making heroes of violent, left-wing thugs, it is important that law enforcement have all the tools necessary to stop this epidemic of lawlessness.
Nevertheless, people are still freaking out. Carmichael Monaco, a member of the Metropolitan Anarchist Coordinating Council, a New York City-based activist group, told Vice Tuesday:
[The unmasking law] takes a pro-fascist stance in its very name, and doubtlessly in its enforcement. In the current political climate, antifascists who speak out against fascism, racism, xenophobia, etc. are routinely harassed, threatened, and attacked by the far right, often supported by the police, who are notably exempted here. Families and friends of antifascists also become targets of far right violence. The wearing of a mask is an act of self-defense often necessary to ensure one’s right to free speech.
“It’s a law that threatens to clamp down on direct action politics more broadly. I think it sets a disturbing precedent,” Mark Bray, a professor at Dartmouth who studies human rights and radical politics told Vice.

No one puts on a mask, grabs an axe handle, runs down the street accusing everyone else of being a Nazi and bearing them up for their political and religious views like an Anti- Fascist…
With the possible exception of ISIS…

Again, Craig, we’re all interested in the acts of exceptional bravery, that you have performed, within the last year or so. Or, are you a COWARD?

ANTIFA don’t have a prayer over this proposed law because people gathering to make their point either silently or peacefully don’t attack others or damage public or private property by violent assault. In any peaceful protest, silence is more powerful, it induces the passing viewers to pause and think about the issue – in silence.
What we’re seeing with ANTIFA is the deployment of the lefts “trump card”, identity politics. They are the politically totally committed and reliable “shock troops” of the new fascist hard left just like the SS were, unless they’re reined in eventually they’re going to turn to even more arson followed by armed violence with targeted assassinations.

In order for a law to work some one has to enforce the law my state has a law against wearing a mask already . And there are laws about destroying property and hurting people. These laws need to be enforced a new law won’t help.

These Anti-fa goons need to look up the definition of “fascist”, and then take a look in the mirror. Oh wait…..that would imply that they know how to read, or that they are even somewhat educated……my bad.

About time a sensible law was passed to curb these violent idiots. Any group that must wear a mask to hide their identity must believe that they have something to fear from being identified.
I am amazed that more of them haven’t been hospitalized to date because even patience must admit that enough is enough when dealing with violent morons.?

Rather amusing that phrase “direct action politics”. Such a nice little euphemism for Antifa’s violent intimidation tactics.

I suggest a small core of dedicated constitutionalists go to the rally where Antifa is in action, Detain and unmask as many Antifa as possible. Photograph their faces, release them, then post their faces in all the public media possible.
