USA – -(Ammoland.com)- The Alt-Left is going to get somebody killed; and it looks like that is by design.
When you buy a gun it is with a reason or purpose. I got a new Match Ruger 100 for Silhouette competitions, the wife got a Weatherby XXII so she could join me.
The Anti free speech movement wants to buy guns too, but not for the same reasons you and I do. They want guns to instill fear in Trump supporters.
To quote their leadership. “Who do you think the fascist is more afraid of? People with only flags and bats or people with flag, bats and guns?”
Their purpose is clear they want guns to intimate people.
Every gun bag I own has a working knife in it. Used to clear a stuck case, or open a box of ammunition …etc. Every knife has a purpose. The custom knife once advertised on the Anti’s web page was specifically for “Slashing” trump supporters. Just like with firearms they to have a reason and purpose for this object, and it is solely to inflict harm on others. The knife was advertised as something you could hide and use to sneak into an event.
These groups have produced articles on their web pages about knife fighting. Their Facebook page calls for physical attacks on whites and calls on supporters to “get a gun”. They promote gun ownership in order to intimidate those they disagree with, they suggest buying a concealable knife to “slash” and attack those that disagree with them.
Suborning assaults and violence is the antithesis of the fascism they claim to be fighting. It is both illegal, is a disruptive element to society and immoral. Actions like theirs can be effective, might I suggest they read up on “The Night of Broken Glass” The Brown shirts seem to be their type of people.
Now Antifa wants to give guns to their followers or monkeys.
I know this will mostly fall on deaf ears, but for the Antifa – stop and think about the violence you’re asking for and planning on committing. Think about the lives that your actions will cost. Realize that the murders and assaults you plan on carrying out will change nothing in your favor. In preparing this article I did as much research as I could on your group, you have no core set of beliefs, you seem to be nothing but paid thugs. Think about those who lead you, always safe and warm and sheltered from the repercussions of the actions they promoted. If all you are is a tool don’t let that tool be a weapon.
As for the monkey analogy, it only seems harsh. So I’ll apologize in advance to the monkeys. As for the Antifa crowd, the best I can tell is you‘re just being used. Here have a banana.
To fellow gun owners (all 110 million of you) stay aware of your surrounding and watch your back. In Berkley and where there have been other assaults on free speech, the Antifa groups have not discriminated as to who they attack. Families and people walking by are fair game.

If you think we are some organization funded by your favorite liberal “boogeymen” Soros et al, then you clearly do not understand anything about ANTIFA. You will inevitably underestimate us as you assume that we are manufactured. This is ideology. This ideology to destroy fascists will never die. We are willing to sacrifice ourselves for the eradication of fascism anywhere it is present.
oldvet …. use “democrat party” it really upsets them!
Jeff,
If you have any influence with the leadership of your ALT-LEFT I wish you would tell them to bring it on. And make sure they wear their masks. I would love to punch several 0.45 inch air holes in them so they could easier breathe their last.
Youbare absolute psycho and an idiot. Writing bs like this is dangerous and you are the one putting people at risk. You have no idea what you are talking about and this reads like a call to violence directed towards people even more ignorant and disturbed than yourself. Dont waste your time writing about antifa, nothing your limited mind can come up with is going to change anyone else’s mind.
Here is the problem. At some point even peaceful people get tired of being pushed around and NOT fighting back. Trump supporters were incited to bring out their “natural” gun totting instinct towards people who were against his racist , terrorism evoking language during his campaign. Trumpsters provoked violence and now they have begat violence as “protection” & “deterrence” to more of it against the left. The right harbores, EVIL, & now their leader is in charge. People are NOT going to tolerate the evil against them that comes from such rhetoric that Trumpsters seem to LOVE, or at least… Read more »
It should read: “To fellow gun owners (all 110 million of you) they are about to cross the line so get ready to fire at will.
