Aka Proud White Boy. 
 

Vigilantes with guns.

The morning after President Trump gave a shoutout to the Proud Boys at the first presidential debate, a member of the controversial right-wing group was arrested in Portland, Oregon, on 12 charges, including multiple felonies for assault and unlawful use of a weapon, and misdemeanors for pointing a firearm at another person, menacing and the unlawful use of tear gas. 

Swinney, a 50-year-old self-identified member of the Proud Boys, is being charged with multiple offenses for alleged crimes on two separate days of demonstrations in downtown Portland.

 

An indictment filed on September 11 alleges Swinney, among other charges, used a paintball gun on August 15 and August 22 to cause physical injury to another person, and on the latter day, pointed a revolver at someone “which placed that person in fear of imminent serious physical injury.”
 

(All Hail Fat Man !!!)

President Trump’s refusal to condemn the Proud Boys in Tuesday night’s presidential debate — telling them instead to “stand back and stand by” — was a galvanizing moment for the far-right, male-only group known for brawling in the streets with left-wing protesters.
 

Stand by?  
for what?

Isnt it interesting how progressives get released as soon as they’re arrested by Portland PD for rioting...for assault against law enforcement...but they’re putting the screws to a patriot for paintballing? Does that sound fair to you? Just curious.

The fringe right and left are the same. And equally ridiculous. 

I think folks misinterpret what FBI Director Wray was talking about. I know a thing or two about this.

When LEAs talk about "terrorist groups" or "domestic terrorist groups" they mean groups with an organizational hierarchy and a command/control structure. Think al Qaida on the international front, or certain varieties of the KKK over the years. Or with respect to criminal gangs (not considered "terrorist" typically, because they are motivated by money, not by seeking some type of political goal), the Latin Kings or the MS-13. 

So "White Nationalists" do not compose a terrorist group. Nor does "Antifa." There are many groups of people who may act violently, individually or in relatively small groups in furtherance of the goals of "white nationalism" or "anti-fascism," but the intelligence doesn't support a finding that these persons or groups have passed the threshold whereby they could be considered "terrorist organizations."

So was Biden's answer incomplete and arguably deceptive? Yes. It was true, but it wasn't the whole story, and it wasn't responsive to the notion that he too should be condemning violence undertaken in service of the so-called anti-fascist ideology.

Biden's example of the Proud Boys was actually pretty good. They have been labeled an "extremist" group by the FBI, but not a terrorist group as far as I know. They do have a clear leadership chain of command, and if it is shown that they engage in violence in furtherance of their political agenda, they will pass that threshold.

I hope that explains some of the confusion regarding the nomenclature here.

Further its unclear as to the number of organizations and their membership headcount that constitute the population of extremist groups and members.  And the division between what is categorized as groups threatening the interests of government or threatening people of other races.  The term "White Supremacist" gets thrown around gratuitously and appears to refer to both. 

While I cannot find any credible source that breaks the numbers down into these two categories it seems important to understand how many are politically motivated and how many are racially motivated.  Of the groups mentioned in this topic, Proud Boys, Antifa, and BLM I'd say Proud Boys and Antifa are politically motivated and BLM is racially motivated as they hate white people (although they've cleaned up their website to remove much of the offensive doctrine).

Good points.

It's also important to remember what we've seen with some of these movements-become-organizations. In some cases you have the slogan, the catch-phrase, and then someone goes and starts a website, appoints himself a leader, puts out press releases, basically just acts as if "Occupy Wall Street" is  a registered nonprofit ... and then it actually becomes a registered nonprofit.

Again, from the law enforcement perspective, it's a tricky situation. Headless organizations (real or fake, disavowing any "leadership") are not readily susceptible to important tools like RICO actions. That means either you have to develop an old fashioned conspiracy case or just go after the guy out there throwing molotov cocktails and hope he implicates some of his fellow rioters.

He’s trying to scare voters away. There will probably be violence around the country now. If this clowns show up at voting stations they should be arrested, but doubt they will be 

It’s not going to be easy to show up at the voting stations when Antifa is blocking the roads and highways

Anti-Semitism:

Although McInnes has decried racism and anti-Semitism, his past statements tell a different story. He has posted videos of himself giving the Nazi salute and repeatedly saying “Heil Hitler.” He was accused of anti-Semitism in March 2017 when he posted a video on Rebel Media called “Ten Things I Hate about Jews,” which was later retitled “Ten Things I Hate About Israel.”

 

McInnes has made a number of contradictory statements about Zionism. Prior to his spring 2017 trip to Israel, McInnes appeared in a Rebel Media video in which he asked people to crowdfund his trip to Israel so he could see what the country was like for himself; however, in that same video, he referenced both “The Culture of Critique,” by white supremacist Kevin MacDonald, and David Duke’s book “Jewish Supremacism.” It was during this trip that McInnes appears to have had somewhat of an anti-Semitic awakening. On his show on March 8, 2017, McInnes muses that Jews were somehow responsible for World War II because “the Treaty of Versailles, wasn’t that disproportionately influenced by Jewish intellectuals?” He also defended Holocaust deniers and neo-Nazis, saying, “Like at one point, the tour guide goes, ‘You know, and there are people who think that this didn’t happen.’ And I felt myself defending the super-far-right Nazis, just because I was sick of so much brainwashing. And I felt like going, ‘Well, they never said it didn’t happen. What they’re saying is that it was much less than six million and that they starved to death and they weren’t gassed.” Then he finishes his train of thought with some thoughts about Jews’ “obsession” with the Holocaust. “God, they’re so obsessed with the Holocaust. I don’t know if it’s healthy to dwell.”

 

At another point McInnes said: “Jews: If you don’t want to get people mad, don’t be annoying.”

 

Seeing Trump supporters taking sides with Proud Boys is just par for the course.

Because, if there was one group of people nobody can question...

 

Seriously, it's like some dark secret that Jewish Privilege is more of a thing (currently) than any sort of alleged White Privilege.

Are you suggesting the Proud Boys have been the ones that have caused over $2 billion in damages nationwide with rioting and looting? Am I correct in believing that’s what you’re saying?

Trump requested a specific name, and Biden mentioned the Proud Boys, an organization that describes itself as a club of "Western chauvinists" but has been categorized as a hate group by the nonprofit Southern Poverty Law Center.

The Southern Poverty Law Center would declare a men’s bowling team a hate group if one member was wearing a Trump hat. 
 

Democrats always reference the SPLC which no objective person has any respect for whatsoever.

In 2017, Agent Chaos said "both sides" were to blame for violence between white supremacists and counter-protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia.

 

He later sought to walk back the comments.

 

Agent Chaos's MO.-- Say something ignorant then walk the comment back.   I believe a term for that is Flip Flopping.

 

But then it is too late.  The damage is done.  The Radical Right grabs onto this and uses it as a rallying cry.  

 

It it that simple.   

 

 

Do you support White Supremacists?  

 

Are you a White Supremacists?

Well you’re showing you commitment to naivety because Trump’s comments on Charlottesville were not controversial. How the media portrayed what he said was intended to make you think as you are. Watch the video of that conference — I found nothing objectionable.

The Proud Bouy's  are known for anti-Muslim and misogynistic rhetoric.  Which is interesting as that is in line with Chaos' SC nominee.  

 

Amy Coney Barrett has close ties to a Christian religious group that holds that men are divinely ordained as the “head” of the family and faith. Former members of the group, called People of Praise, say it teaches that wives must submit to the will of their husbands.

A group that she is affiliated with, People of Praise’s branch said

 

women were expected to live in “total submission” not only to their husbands, but also the other male “heads” within the group.

Proud Boys? Is this really a thing? I’m pretty well informed, but have to admit I too had never once heard the term until Uncle Joe threw it out there. Where did Joe learn of this group. Certainly not in his bunker. Talk about FAKE NEWS! Pay no attention to the burning buildings and smashed windows, we have something else we need you to focus on.
