Let's be clear about who should be "just defending themselves" from whom:
"Trump frequently accuses the far-left of inciting violence, yet right-wing extremists have killed 329 victims in the last 25 years, while antifa members haven't killed any, according to a new study"

- m0zg 6y agoI guess David Dorn can take solace in the fact that the looter who executed him on FB live stream while his grandson watched was not a formal Antifa member.
- dane-pgp 6y agoI agree that the statistics would be more useful if everyone who intended to commit a violent criminal act would first become a formal member of a group whose ideology they share. That would help to avoid miscounting False Flag attacks, and relying on individual anecdotes to decide which side is the worst.
