Antifa is the new Brown Shirts: Democrats use violence to silence their opponents

An Antifa member tried to chain Republican students at the University of Washington who were having a meeting into a classroom.

Fortunately he was caught because the students were aware of the propensity of the left to use violence to silence people they don't like.

The Emerald City Antifa Facebook page encouraged members to show up and disrupt the peaceful meeting so this wasn't some random person acting on their own.

While some Democrats have condemned the worst excesses of Antifa they generally downplay or ignore the violent tactics that Antifa uses to shut down anyone who disagrees with the Democrat agenda.

This is one more example of how the Democrats are comfortable with Antifa's use of violence and intimidation to silence not Nazi's but any conservative who objects to the Democrats destruction of the Constitution.
