Dissent is being criminalized right under our noses

Looks like conservative snowflakes can’t stand when the people stand up to them in protest. Here’s the money quote: > The proposed bill would create a broad definition of “domestic terrorism” to include any attempt to “affect” or “influence” government policy or actions. And it would include property damage—even attempted property damage—as a terrorist act subject to a 25-year prison sentence. Yeah, 25 years for throwing a rock at a window during a protest, even if you miss! Anybody still believe America doesn’t aspire to be a police state? https://www.truthdig.com/articles/dissent-is-being-criminalized-right-under-our-noses/

This is what happens when nothing gets done about Antifa by local cops.

Not in America it isn’t. This law wouldn’t make it through one appeal if it passed. First amendment, bruh.

Oh I already know I completely disagree with this bill and I’ve barely read much about it yet. But something needs to be done about these domestic terrorists.

Yelp, you are definitely downplaying the terror that Antifa causes. Connor Betts, the Dayton shooter who killed his sister and 8 innocent bystanders’ Twitter acct had pro-Antifa rhetoric and spoke out against fascism. Is this what you want?

How many mass shooters have pro Trump or white supremacist rhetoric, hmm? Even supposing this Connor Betts is a card carrying member of Antifa (impossible, because Antifa is not an organization) the ratio is skewed in a certain direction, wouldn’t you say? Who’s afraid of Antifa besides neo-nazis and alt right douchebags, anyway? I want those people to be afraid.
