The Nasty Left Are At It Again

[youngmafbog]

They just dont like free speech do they? But I guess if you are unable to articulate a valid argument then it must be the fists out.

Why isn't more being done to stop this group of violent brownshirts?

Time some of these far-left groups were banned, at times they cause more trouble than the far-right.

[Spicerack]

Should have locked the doors and called for ambulance(s)

"The Metropolitan Police attended the event, but said they had not heard of any injuries. "

[cassa333]

No injuries? One bloke was getting a right pasting.

They are cowards. If they truly believed in 'thier cause' they wouldn't be proud to be seen and take the consequences. But they aren't.

[cassa333]

Oh and I would have herded them into a corner and taken their masks off and posted pictures of their faces.

Thug alert. Do not approach these people as they are dangerous.

[Spicerack]

They're pansies, imo.

[ToraToraTora]

Looks like Agent COB's stasi storm troopers, this is the thuggery they want to impose on us.

[youngmafbog]

Spath, no generalising, I took great pains to put the 'NASTY' left not just "The left"

Much ado is made about far right groups, and rightly so. But why is nothing done about the far left?

[New Judge]

Because that's different. It's justified in order to get rid or "Tory Scum".

[youngmafbog]

Because they are not in power? As far as I can recall the far right have never been in power but gross are banned.

//less racial, more diverse and accepting// Your having a giraffe.

[ToraToraTora]

you're having a Turkish spathy, the left are legendarily bigoted.

[youngmafbog]

I'm not sure I am following your logic Spath.

The right (debatable with some Tories) are in power so yes they should sort the legal side out but surely the Left should be vocal and distancing themselves from the violence and pressing the Tories to do something about it. It's what you do in opposition.

Hopefully that explains a little clearer.

[Kromovaracun]

They hospitalised a security guard, spath, and set off a smoke grenade in a crowded building. That is paramilitary tactics and is not acceptable.

For the record, I don't think Benjamin should have been invited (or indeed accepted by the university) because he has never contributed to knowledge through research or publication - he's just a rabble rouser with a popular youtube account and a slightly cultish following. But this kind of violence and aggression really needs to be stamped out. This is a serious escalation on earlier Antifa activities at King's and there needs to be a criminal investigation and (if students) expulsions. The university has taken action like this before against radical Islamists at the university, the same principle applies here.

See this as an example of what the same people were doing 2 years ago, in the same building:

I await COB's comments of condemnation with interest but I suspect I'll have a long wait.

[ToraToraTora]

have a day off spathy, so supporters of the opposition can do what they like? Right oh! AH will be along in a mo to have a go about the "so" rule!
