Gettysburg 'flag-burning hoax' sees armed far-right groups assemble


As usual, right wing fascists hear some bs rumor, and jump on it as if it were true! Gullible and paranoid republicans will believe anything!

Gettysburg 'flag-burning hoax' sees armed far-right groups assemble

Far-right groups, some armed, arrived at the historic grounds at Gettysburg



Rumours that anti-fascist protesters planned to burn American flags on the Gettysburg Civil War battleground site led to armed far-right groups turning up in numbers on US Independence Day.

Posts on social media by supposed antifa leaders urged members to meet at the Pennsylvania site on 4 July.

In response, far-right groups assembled on the historic grounds on Saturday - but no adversaries showed up.

The holiday marks the US declaration of independence from Britain in 1776.

The posts that appeared on social media ahead of the Independence Day celebrations reportedly called for people to flock to the site in face paint.

Activists would "be giving away free small flags to children to safely throw into the fire", the hoax call suggested.

"Let's get together and burn flags in protest of thugs and animals in blue," one anonymous Facebook post said.

There is no evidence to suggest that those responsible for the online posts are in any way linked to antifa - a loosely-affiliated network of mainly far-left activists.

Hours before the flag-burning was supposed to start, far-right groups gathered in a parking lot next to a Wal-Mart. Some were armed.

Why is it that not one of the Republican officeholders objecting to Biden's victory have objected to their own wins on the same day on the same ballots using the same election systems??!

Since Auntie Fascist would actually do that, one can hardly blame them for responding to the call. Fortunately, these people can't be defunded.

Yes, Spud - for that cause, armed demands and public armed checkpoints done by those people are fine, just fine.

I'm glad that those fine patriots described in Tombs' OP showed up on the 4th, when they thought such lefty activities were going to happen.

The same lefties that would demand prison for burning a Koran, would love to see both American Flags and Bibles be burned. We certainly have plenty of vids of Lefties burning and otherwise abusing Flags.

Good on those fine lads for showing up!
