In testimony to the Homeland Security Committee, Wray also diverged from Trump’s claim that “antifa” is a terrorist organization. Rather, Wray said antifa is “more of an ideology or a movement than an organization” and though there has been violence by some who self-identify as antifa, it has not appeared to be part of a central organization.
“Antifa is a real thing,” Wray said. “But it’s not an organization or a structure.”
Under questioning from Rep. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.), Wray indicated that white supremacist violence is the largest portion of what he described as the most significant domestic terrorism threat in the country: “racially motivated violent extremism.”

Presumably you're white. Should we be concerned about you?

More importantly (maybe), why would being white necessarily make one a "white supremacist" versus an "antiracist"??
as I said, temporary act on the other thread.

The likelihood of an older lacrosse player being anything other than white is somewhere around negative -100%. I think ‘presumably’ fits fine.
That said, the CU’s here (88 and 77) seem preoccupied with ‘white supremacy’, which is of course another absurd Democratic sideshow. I’m wondering if they’re projecting?
Would that explain why Trump is fighting to get more blacks released out of prison, financially supporting HBCU's, provide school choice for inner city kids? Or is that just smoke and mirrors to throw you all off the trail?CU88 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 01, 2020 7:04 am What is wrong with our FBI?

While skepticism of government is undoubtedly a common sentiment, the Boogaloos have distinguished themselves by carrying out significant acts of violence in furtherance of this belief. For example, this summer, one Boogaloo, Steven Carrillo, is alleged to have killed two law enforcement officers in Northern California. True to the group’s desire to hasten the next civil war, Carrilllo is alleged to have killed the law enforcement officers at an otherwise peaceful demonstration with a silenced machine gun, in hopes of provoking retaliation from the police against the demonstrators. Later in September, two other Boogaloo members were arrested and charged with providing material support to Hamas. The two men are alleged to have told an FBI informant posing as a Hamas member that they shared a common ideology in opposing the US government, and offered to act as mercenaries.CU88 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 01, 2020 7:04 am What is wrong with our FBI?
