Tthe "ANTIFA COMMANDER" has been arrested so everything is fine now.

Apparently, groups of white men armed with sticks, baseball bats, and helmets are more dangerous in the eyes of cops than groups of white men armed with guns which is...a bit weird but whatever.
But why would the officer pull up?
Military-style gear is not illegal, and is worn by PATRIOTS on the right.
Metal helmets aren't illegal either, and are often warn by PATRIOTS on the alt-right.
The Antifa flag is no more violent, deadly, or threatening than the Confederate flag, which is often carried by PATRIOTS on the right.
So the only difference was they had bats, which are decidedly less dangerous and less of a threat than a rifle.
And the "ANTIFA COMMANDER" that got picked up was, unsurprisingly, a 23 year old dude who immediately went into the fetal position because of course this chucklefuck would.
I'm just impressed that law enforcement seem to take people armed with flags not waved during a civil war and with melee weapons and personal protection, while they are usually quite gracious towards heavily armed vigilante yahoo's with multiple firearms on their person.
Almost like there's this weird cultural/political double standard or some shit. WHICH IS WEIRD, RIGHT?!
