 Mainstream Reporters Snicker at Beating Sustained By Reporter From Antifa
by Brian McNicoll on July 2, 2019
 

Andy Ngo should not have gone into the streets of Portland, Ore., last weekend to cover the protests there even though he is a writer and editor for Quilette with a long history of covering such disturbances.

But he went because he wanted to be in the middle of a fracas, to end up the subject of YouTube film clips and tweet rages and other condemnations of Antifa and related groups.

That was the general consensus among many members of the mainstream media on Monday.

I've heard journos say Ngo wasn't a "real journalist" and not due protection from brutal assaults.  I've also hear the retorts to this...the 1st Amendment was not intended to apply speech protections only for Officially Recognized Press, it's for all people.

Amazing.  Ngo has more courage in his little finger than all of those creeps put together.

So it is okay, to beat regular journalists?


It should be a very imortant national story and issue, if "leftist" city/jurisdiction gives communists free roaming, to assault, batter conservatives and others.


Ngo is by the way, an immigrant, Asian, gay man.

Did I say that?  I don't think so, do you think I did?

Hell, no! Who would condone such a thing?

MISSOULA, Mont. — President Donald Trump praised Rep. Greg Gianforte, R-Mont., Thursday for physically assaulting a reporter during a House race last year.

"Never wrestle him," Trump said of Gianforte at a campaign rally here. "Any guy that can do a body slam, he's my guy."

No, it wasn't. But, to be honest with you, it makes me sad that such a large swath of my fellow Americans feel so displaced, forgotten, and frustrated that they would cheer on such behavior.

Regardless of one's political bent, an animus towards lawlessness, thuggery, boorishness, and plain ol' bad manners should unite us all.

Any organized group of thugs, right or left, going around assaulting people of a different political persuasion should be condemned by everybody.
