I Switched On Fux News During The El Paso Shooting, And Do You Know What They Were Talking About?

ANTIFA.

No joke. Seriously. That's what they were talking about.

They got Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick live on the phone, and he somehow managed to blame the shooting on a planned protest by Antifa, 29 days from now.

Here's proof. (No, I don't want you to click on the link, and give those a-holes more advertising revenues. I'm just providing the link as proof that this unbelievable thing actually happened.)

Fox News really needs to be driven into extinction with advertising boycotts. It's the single most dangerous organization in America.

their idiot viewers must think it's some rejuvenated African word that Patty Hearst thought up.

But yes, being against Fascists USED to be given. As shown in this picture of ANTIFA activists hitting the beach at Normandy to violently confront Fascists. (Some very fine people ON BOTH sides!)

fucking spiral to dystopia, as the masses are told up is down, right is wrong, etc.


Do you ever feel like 1984 and V for Vendetta are becoming more like documentaries?

An idiot is saying we don't know if the injuries are from gunfire or just from a stampede.

Australia has only recently gotten over it. Europe and America are still suffering from it.

and somehow the comments from these folks are focused on antifa. I've been critical of "antifa" many times in the past, but I can't think of any of their 'members' who are murdering people for twisted political reasons.

This is one of their propaganda methods.

FOX VIEWERS DO NOT KNOW ABOUT MANY DOMESTIC TERRORISM INCIDENTS. Because Fox doesn't tell them.

And never forget the Murdoch family is behind these lies.

Thought that it might be terrorist attack by ISIS, wasn't sure if it was domestic or not. Can you believe this? Well, I guess so. They'll be sure to claim that if there were others in the mall with weapons, they could have taken the shooter down. So the problem we have in this country is that we don't have enough gun ownership?

No-body is really at fault. There's good and bad guys on both sides like the president said. Sort of ironic this both sides bullshit on guns is the only way one of these assholes will ever utter the word "climate."
