<p>Thanks, Nick. Trump and his cronies want to equate Antifa with
the KKK and White Supremicists to excuse their own views as
"rational". NOT HAPPENING....</p>
<p>We all know who they are, and that the Trumpster is one of
them....SAD and pretty dang scarey!</p>

<div>I want to thank Tom Hansen for posted my Daily News version
of this column, and also thanks to him for the passage from
Wilson's blog that prompted the piece. The long version
contains these paragraphs on the so-called Violent Left.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span>Tens of Thousands of Peaceful
Protestors<span></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>A week
after the Charlottesville tragedy, tens of thousands
protested peacefully in
Boston, Atlanta, New Orleans, Dallas, and Laguna Beach. An
estimated 40,000
showed up in Boston, and apart from 27 arrests for
disorderly conduct, the
protestors were peaceful. A small group harassed a man
wearing a Trump hat, but
the Associated Press reported that “other
counter-protesters intervened and
helped the man safely over a fence where the conservative
rally was to be
staged.”<span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span>Many False Claims about Antifa<span></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Black-clad
members of Antifa, a small anti-Fascist organization, have
been responsible for
disrupting dozens of right-wing talks and rallies across
the country. Antifa and peaceful protestors are not
allies, whereas the LOS, the KKK, and the neo-Nazis
coordinate their hate-filled
actions. I join many others in strongly condemning
Antifa’s attempts to
undermine free speech rights. <span></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Charges
that Antifa has committed violence against individual
white nationalists have
not been proved or are outright false. Snopes.com has
shown that an alleged
Antifa manual that urges violence and a flyer calling for
the murder of white
children are fraudulent documents. The anti-Semitic
language in the latter is
actually evidence that it was made by a white nationalist.
An alleged Antifa
knife attack on a man in Sheridan, Colorado on August 24
turned out to be
self-inflicted. See more exoneration of
Antifa at <a href="http://snopes.com"

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span>Right-Wing Extremists Kill 275;
Antifa Kills
None<span></span></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Marilyn Mayo, senior research
fellow
for the Anti-Defamation League’s Center on Extremism,
reports that “over the
past decade, extremists of every stripe have </span><span><a

Americans, and 74 percent of those killings were committed
by
right wing extremists. Only 2 percent of those deaths were
at the hands of left
wing extremists,” and none by Antifa members.
Antifa activists do not carry guns, but most white
nationalists do.</span><span><span></span></span></p>

-Greek proverb</div>

“Enlightenment is man’s emergence from his
self-imposed immaturity. Immaturity is the
inability to use one’s understanding
without guidance from another. This
immaturity is self- imposed when its cause
lies not in lack of understanding, but in
lack of resolve and courage to use it
without guidance from another. Sapere
Aude! ‘Have courage to use your own
understand-ing!—that is the motto of
enlightenment.<br>
