He brought an American flag to protest fascism in Portland. Then Antifa attacked him

Paul Welch came to the downtown protest Aug. 4 to let his political leanings be known.

With pride he clutched his U.S. flag as he moved among the crowd of like-thinking demonstrators.

Soon a group of black-clad antifascists, or antifa, demanded he lose the flag, calling it a fascist symbol. Welch refused, and a tug-of-war ensued.

I think anti in anitfa is an acronym for American, not too intelligent -- so our native blackshirts who beat the flag-bearing lefitst are the American not too intelligent fascists. 

Proof they're not too intelligent:  they see no irony in wearing black shirts when roughing up their political opponents in political street fighting and calling themselves "anti-fascists".
And when they behead your own people in the wars which are to come, then you will know what this was all about.

Yes it's sad, but even after this painful lesson I'll bet he still can't see who the real fascists are.

A fearless prediction:

It's only a matter of time until "non-nonviolent" means are going to be required to put the blackshirts into their place.

Seems to me that after the bullets flew at Kent State, the protesters became more... um... "peaceful"...
