Rep. Maxine Waters of California warned her supporters not to be baited into a confrontation with a a far-right militia group planning a protest at her South-Central Los Angeles office Thursday.

The Oath Keepers, which claims 35,000 members who often dress in military gear and carry military-grade rifles at protests and events across the country, issued a “call to action” for Thursday to protest Waters’ “incitement of terrorism” and Democrats’ opposition to Republican immigration policies.

Waters does not want counter-protesters to clash with the Oath Keepers and urged her supporters to stay away until they’re gone.

“I am requesting those individuals and groups planning a counter-protest to not be baited into confronting the Oath Keepers with any demonstrations in opposition — such an occurrence would only exacerbate tensions and increase the potential for conflict,” the Golden State Democrat told her supporters in a statement.

What?  You mean.... like what you just recently called for from your side of the political aisle, Maxine?  Like that? 

Hypocrite, thy name is Maxine, the stupidest Democrat evah, bar none (including the idiot that claimed Guam might tip over... which is pretty stiff competition for that title).

When did OathKeepers become a far-right militia group?  I thought it was cops and veterans.

And they carry "military grade weapons."  Roll Call is trying to his every dog whistle in the book.

Everything is a military weapon to the braindead news media.

I believe you are correct. Just loyal Americans who believe in the Rule of Law, and who have taken an oath to Protect and Defend the Constitution they continue to abide by.

To the lawless, anarchist, communist Left, though, they are the far right, because anyone farther Right is obscured by the curvature of the Earth, (they are so far Left).

Of course Maxine doesn't want her precious snowflakes mixing it up with former Military and Police types, they'd get their asses handed to them.
