The leftist terrorist organization known as Antifa specializes in sucker-punching people they disagree with as well as launching badly outnumbered (in their favor) attacks. In Portland, OR these cowards have taken over the streets, intimidating and assaulting innocent people. They tried this crap in NYC and found out that New Yorkers aren’t quite as timid as people in the Pacific Northwest. Antifa went to “punch some Nazis” and instead got severely beaten.
I’m going to use The Huffington Post’s reporting on this event just to show you how wrong Antifa was in this battle. The HuffPo is a far left outfit that reports on things like this with extreme bias and Antifa still comes out looking bad.

Gavin McInnes, founder of nationalist group the Proud Boys, gave a speech at the Metropolitan Republican Club in Manhattan on Friday night. The HuffPo describes the Proud Boys as “proto-fascists” which makes no sense, but a bunch of anti-fascists showed to shut down their right to assemble and express their opinions.
…some 50 anti-fascists protested outside McInnes’ appearance at the Metropolitan Republican Club. “Kill more Nazis!” they chanted at one point.
You get the idea, Antifa showed up to kill some people they mistakenly believe are Nazis. Of course they came out to do this because they figured they’d outnumber the Proud Boys and be able attack them with little to no resistance. They were wrong.
After the meeting let out and the Proud Boys came out to confront the fascist anti-fascists, this happened, as witnessed by journalists Sandi Bachom and Shay Horse:
Both Bachom and Horse told HuffPost they believed the altercation began when three anti-fascist protesters knocked a red “Make America Great Again” hat off a Proud Boy member’s head.
But then, the two journalists recounted, the confrontation turned into a mob assault, with Proud Boys vastly outnumbering the anti-fascists.
“They turned it into a pummeling. This was three people on the ground and people just kicking the shit out of them,” said Horse.
On top of starting this fight, Antifa also vandalized the Metropolitan Republican Club:
Police were also investigating vandalism at the club Thursday night. The unknown vandal spray-painted anarchy symbols on the club’s front doors, broke a window, and left a note decrying the club for inviting “a hipster-fascist clown to dance for them” — a reference to McInnes.
The HuffPo was left breathless that police didn’t arrest the Proud Boys, but their own reporting proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that Antifa instigated everything. The HuffPo reached out to McInnes and he confirmed that they for once accurately reported on something:
Reached for comment, McInnes called this reporter a member of antifa, then claimed it was anti-fascists who instigated the violence Friday evening, including by “hurl[ing] a bottle of urine” at him.
“I recognized one of them. He was there an hour before the talk screaming at people. He stole a Proud Boys MAGA hat and was immediately tuned up. You guys picked a fight without the means to back it up – again. Fuck around and find out,” said McInnes.
To Recap: Antifa vandalized a meeting place because someone they disagree with was speaking. They showed up chanting about killing these people and threw urine at them. They physically assaulted a member of this group and then got the shit beat out of them. They started it, but couldn’t finish it.
