The Rising Domestic War on Terrorism

For people living in the cities the police are the terrorists. Corruption is everywhere. Power corrupts.

If someone joins the IRA but doesnt join in on the terrorist acts does that make them a terrorist by association? Or just a plain old terrorist?

I think borderline is when you have an affiliation with a known group but dont commit any acts.

Terrorist: a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Either do or do not. Only one is a "terrorist".

Affiliating without contributing isn't terrorism. It's just you believing in what they do. Acting upon it is another story. However, law enforcement would see it a bit different if you're in the same location as the act of terror and being affiliated, whether you did the deed or not. I think they call that an accomplice.

Style so confused how a movement called ANTIFA even starts. Isn't anti-fascist a default setting for any normal moral human being with common sense.
Clearly not in America "Land of the.. um, FOX news?"

not all that hard to figure out how a group such as ANTIFA starts. it starts in order to use violence and intimidation (aka terrorism), to push a political agenda. and a better question when it comes to ANTIFA would be, just how the communist militants have managed to hang around for well over 70 years? remember ANTIFA was one of the main groups, if not the main group that the NAZI brownshirts fought against. which gave the NAZIS at least a bit of legitimacy for fighting against the communists. in fact even the symbol that today's ANTIFA uses is just a reversed and slightly stylized copy of the original German, communist ANTIFA symbol and if that doesn't show you these so called democratic socialists are indeed communists, what will?
