Prince John posted:Which raises the difficult question of whether the police should be policing these demonstrations more aggressively, if the participants are able to attack the public at will. When the EDL were in Sheffield as far as I could tell there was no real effort by police to contain them, they were just wandering about in the road outside Wetherspoons shouting at people until the counterprotestors started turning up and then they were mostly trying to keep them separated. Bashing or not is a bit of a moot point because they tend to respond to counterprotests with violence and it is perfectly legitimate to want to shout at fascists who've turned up in your city uninvited.

But hey, i'm sure you had a real good view from behind your computer.

Besides, dosen't the police only show up when the anti-fash appear anyway? Fascists I don't think go and ask permission to display bigotry around public places.

You should generally avoid seeking out violence for the sake of it but if you know someone else is going to be seeking out violence against people who would prefer not to be violent, and you're willing to meet it yourself then yeah go seek out violence with them. Basically cunts are fair game.

I remember bullying a bully at secondary school because he kept bullying this disabled person. He started pissing me off when he kept annoying me and then I just snapped. I chased him with a steel pipe in the boys brigade. It took three 16-19 year olds to hold me back. Fun times. He never bothered me since.

We were kettled fairly early, but before we were a tiny woman with us managed to clock a human thumb with something. Got him in the shoulder pretty good. If I wasn't involved I'd have asked her out then and there.

It all depends if you see violence as always bad, or not. I don't see violence as inherently bad, just that it leads to bad outcomes. It is perfectly possible, to achieve good outcomes with violence or its threat.

Though I never quite got the whole releasing anger being healthy thing. Whenever I released my anger I tried to kill people, fortunately I was a hilariously pathetic child and unable to actually kill anyone. But yeah releasing anger never did me much good. nothing to seehere posted:It all depends if you see violence as always bad, or not.

Violence is inherently bad but it is far from inherently the worst. There are things much worse than just the commission of violence.

As I mentioned before, better the fash get into a scrap with some big lads looking for a fight than some poor pensioner who fails the paper bag test. It's all well and good being all "oh, I abhor all violence" until the judicious application of violence is the only thing stopping Nazis cracking innocent people's jaws.

Stress relief is great and I spend as much time as I can doing it, just the whole "act on your anger to get rid of it" which i got a lot (and still get) is exactly the thing that got me into most trouble.

Turning up to fight fascist agitators is like turning up to fight football hooligans. It's not an amazingly well thought out plan.

Fascists aren't amazingly thoughtful people, so that seems more than sufficient. Even if you just give them something else to focus on it's better than them marching around smashing up anyone and anything they think isn't aryan enough. Which they will. Because the police won't stop them.

It's about trying to figure out why you're angry and taking positive steps towards resolving the issues I guess. Stress relief is a good way of releasing the anger but you need to treat the cause ultimately.
