'......enemies foreign & domestic.....'
Can't wait forMilo and/or Ann Coulter to announce their next University-libtard-pwning tour so I can watch the terrorists get taken out in real-time.
(some US citizens will see this as a Federal law - LOL)
All US citizens have a responsibility to kill terrorists where-ever they find them - even going on the offensive onto their known places where they and their apologists gather.
The US is at war with itself - half the country hates half the country - if you don't believe me, turn on your TV.

Can you name one "Alt Right" group?
Because I've yet to ever see one.
Unless you're counting the random types of people whom all show up to fight back against the goosestepping tyrants.
Are they 'organized'? What are the names? Do they get hundreds of millions in funding from technocrat elitists groups like your beloved BLM did in 2016 alone?
Will you ever draw the line on any of the left wing radicals and say enough is enough? Or are a sympathizer to the agents of civil war trying to tear American to shreds?

I love how you guys wiggle away from your extremists but anyone a hair left if center is a terrorist now. I've denounced violent activism a million times on these forums.
I'm not playing your game.

Their group front was formed to wear all black and face masks as their attire specifically to spark intimidation and foment mob behavior.
Anonymity in crowds has been known to be one of the core driving aspects in violent mobs (for over 100 years since the original book ever written on "Crowd Psychology").
This movement designed by social psychologist types chose that specifically to stoke the atrocious tendencies their hyper-bigot SJW movement was already (predictably) exhibiting.
Antifa / BAMN are the militant goosestepping "Brownshirt" extension of BLM / SJW and their specific purpose is radicalization and persecution. So no sympathy for them.
So yes when someone comes in and implies what they represent is freedom of expression, you'll get your counter-privilege checked.
Okay, so these "other groups" you're talking about how do the groups compare to Antifa? Were / are they political social movements?
'Their' "attacks" you're talking about was it pure ignorant racial tribalism backwardsness (hate group extremism), or was it hardcore political ideology as well?
Note that Antifa is both political social movement and extremist hate group.
Psychology of Crowds (1895):
Le Bon held that crowds existed in three stages: submergence, contagion, and suggestion.[9] During submergence, the individuals in the crowd lose their sense of individual self and personal responsibility. This is quite heavily induced by the anonymity of the crowd.[9] Contagion refers to the propensity for individuals in a crowd to unquestioningly follow the predominant ideas and emotions of the crowd. In Le Bon's view, this effect is capable of spreading between "submerged" individuals much like a disease.[2] Suggestion refers to the period in which the ideas and emotions of the crowd are primarily drawn from a shared racial unconscious. This behavior comes from an archaic shared unconscious and is therefore uncivilized in nature. It is limited by the moral and cognitive abilities of the least capable members.[8] Le Bon believed that crowds could be a powerful force only for destruction.[9] Additionally, Le Bon and others have indicated that crowd members feel a lessened sense of legal culpability, due to the difficulty in prosecuting individual members of a mob.
Now add the effects of uniforms on observers:
The Social Significance of Clothing
When a person encounters a stranger, the person seeks clues from the stranger''s appearance which can reveal things about the stranger. One powerful clue to a person''s background is clothing. Clothing serves as a mental shortcut to identifying a persons sex, status, group membership, legitimacy, authority, and occupation. Clothing and physical appearance are very important in the initial development of social relationships. Studies have revealed that physical appearance, including clothing, is the factor most often used in developing a first impression of someone. Clothing has been found to have an even greater effect on making first impressions than does personality.
In early social interactions, clothing has a significant psychological influence on people''s perceptions. Personnel administrators who were asked to rate the competency of similar female job applicants consistently rated the women in conservative, slightly-masculine attire as the most competent. In another study, both high school students and teachers were asked to rate, pictures of female athletes, some of whom were in uniform and the others in casual street clothes, All of the athletes were perceived as being more professional, possessing higher ability, and having more team spirit when viewed in uniform. Both students and teachers, have also rated photos of students in private school-type uniforms as having higher scholastic ability.

Now add the effects of militant uniforms on the wearers:
When Police Wear Military Uniforms, It Changes Their Psychology
There is, too, the other side of this relationship: how what people wear affects how they act. Military gear may harm relations between police forces and citizens not only because they signal violence but because they may, in some sense, cause more violence. The same cues that signal "army" and "conflict" to civilians may affect police officers themselves. When they "dress up" for serious engagements, for example when donning SWAT gear to respond to a riot, they no longer feel like local law enforcement anymore but like part of a broader military machine.
That perception, in turn, may well affect the types of decisions they actually make. In one early study, a take on the famous Milgram paradigm, in which women were asked to deliver electric shocks to another woman whenever she made a mistake, women who wore Ku Klux Klan uniforms delivered more shocks than those who wore nurses' uniforms. The implication was that uniforms conferred some of their connotations onto the behavior of their wearers.
Now apply all of that to an extremist hate group:
The 7 Stages of an Extremist Hate Group
Stage 5: Attacking without weapons
– This stage is critical because it differentiates vocally abusive haters from physically abusive ones. In this stage, hate groups become more aggressive, prowling their turf seeking vulnerable targets. Violence coalesces hategroups and further isolates them from mainstream society.
Each successive anger- provoking thought or action builds on residual adrenaline and triggers a more violent response than the one that originally initiated the sequence. Anger builds on anger. The adrenaline high combined with hate becomes a deadly combination.
Stage 6: Attacking with weapons
– Some attackers use firearms to commit hate crimes, but skinheads prefer weapons such as broken bottles, baseball bats, blunt objects,screwdrivers, and belt buckles. These types of weapons require the attacker to be close tothe victim, which further demonstrates the depth of personal anger. Attackers can discharge firearms at a distance, thus precluding personal contact. Close-in onslaughts require the assailants to see their victim eye-to-eye and to become bloodied during the assault. Hands-on violence allows skinheads to express their hate in a way a gun cannot. Personal contact empowers and fulfills a deep-seated need to have dominance over others.
Stage 7: Destroying
– The ultimate goal of haters is to destroy the object of their hate.Mastery over life and death imbues the hater with godlike power and omnipotence,which, in turn, facilitate further acts of violence. With this power comes a great sense of self-worth and value, the very qualities haters lack. However, in reality, hate physically and psychologically destroys both the hater and the hated.

There are already laws against the violence ANTIFA normally employs. Lock the bastards up!
When we start labeling groups though, it usually doesn't end well.
Leftists during the Obama regime labeled anyone who disagreed with them as racist, anti-American.
I'd prefer it if we didn't act like them.
