Don’t ever compare Antifa to WWII Vets

Aug 21, 2017, 3:48 PM

Antifa is a playing a filthy game online but it has a purpose. And one of the main causes of my frustrations with professional Republicans is that they do not understand the battlefield or the people they’re fighting against.

The hardcore left is going for total and complete control.

Antifa’s latest meme compares “punks” from Antifa to WWII soldiers storming the beaches on D-Day. It compares people carrying 2 x 4’s with nails driven in them who go to college campuses to beat people up with our veterans.

The door has been opened and the media has chosen to ignore the fact that Antifa came armed to fight the disgusting Nazi’s in Charlottesville.

We can’t compare this to storming the beaches at Normandy.

The men in WWII weren’t fighting an idea; they were fighting the world’s biggest killing machine in history. That was not what was happening in Charlottesville. The people in WWII were confronting death, Antifa was confronting arrest.

WWII were fighting for something; the rule of law. Antifa is fighting for the idea that there is nothing that government can’t do to people as long as they are in charge. They are the opposite of the men who stormed the beaches at Normandy.

Antifa offers nothing in the way of building, advancement or growth. And they hide their identities because they are cowards.

As always, please listen to the full audio clip for complete context.
