Police Kill Antifa Extremist Attacking Immigrant Detention Facility
Police Kill Antifa Extremist Attacking Immigrant Detention Facility
07-14-19 ~ By Ivan Pentchoukov
Police in Tacoma, Washington, killed an armed Antifa extremist early on July 13 after the man threw firebombs at the building and cars in the parking lot and attempted to blow up a large propane tank. The man succeeded in setting one car on fire before officers responded at 4 a.m. and gunned him down, according to the Tacoma Police Department. The man was armed with a rifle and wore a satchel with flares, the police said. No officers were hurt in the encounter. “This morning’s attack at the ICE detention center in Tacoma was a horrific act of violence that has shaken us all,” Washington Governor Jay Inslee wrote on Twitter.
The Pierce County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the man as Willem Van Spronsen of Vashon Island, according to the Seattle Times.... A friend of Van Spronsen, who described Van Spronsen as an anarchist and anti-fascist, said that she thinks he wanted to provoke a fatal conflict, the Seattle Times reported. Anti-fascists in the United States refer to themselves as Antifa.
Comment:
The Epoch Times correctly identifies the group “Antifa” in the title. I bet nobody else does. This is the violence caused by Democratic divisiveness and hysteria. Both the biased media and law enforcement especially in the state of Washington have been excessively tolerant of Antifa’s violence that has only encouraged them to step up their violent tactics.
The radicalized Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Left attacks because mainstream media encourages Antifa to commit the violence. This is a symptom and a sign of what is to come. Weakness encourages aggressive behavior. Time to clamp down on these extremists.
As always the anti-fascists committing fascist maneuvers. Only one side is participating in this civil war, (so far). There is a tipping point and it is coming soon. When the police cannot handle it anymore, things will get loud and bloody.
