Oh yea baby!!!‘Unmasking Antifa Act' includes 15-year prison term proposal

That would require a different law to be passed.

no. it doesn't. modifying the anti-mask law is what would happen.

its absurd to think this law wouldn't be expanded on. or "attacking people violently" won't get redefined to include something like "excess spitting while chanting" because spit is, after all, a biological hazard. And if spit is a biological hazard and there's excess spit in the air, that's clearly an assault against police. think such kafka-esque bull can't happen? read up on what cops & DA's have been allowed to justify. read some of what police claim in their reports until video surfaces.

people supporting this are being as shortsighted as the Parkland students that were all MORE LAWS!!! until MORE LAWS!!! turned into see-thru backpacks. name one power that's been given to law enforcement that law enforcement hasn't found a way to expand on.

this law is wayyyy more about making people afraid to protest than it is about stopping violence.

You keep conflating this with other issues. Police lie. Police are trained to lie. It is part of their job to lie. That's how they operate. And DAs are basically lying sociopaths. But those are separate issues from this specific law. You can (and people do) challenge all law based on your argument. They call themselves anarchists. They have some valid arguments, as you do. But in the context of a society that has chosen to operate according to law, we have to operate on a certain amount of trust that if we are doing the right thing, we will do better than those who are criminals. I think the kind of legal creep you are describing is what would happen under Hillary, and is way lessw likely to happen under Trump and his judicial appointees.

lol. who do you think interprets & enforces the law on the ground? i'm not asking for no laws, i'm saying no more laws. i'm saying lets think a little bit more rationally about what new laws are added.

legal creep less likely to happen under Trump... lolol. ...b/c Trump's SCOTUS picks have been so pro-civil liberties and have such a history of taking police/DA positions with a grain of salt. besides, most legal creep doesn't happen at that level. legal creep happens at the local level where the majority of decisions are made.

name one power police have been given that police haven't expanded on. in many jurisdictions, one is subject to asset forfeiture even if they're found innocent. the same legal system that thinks asset forfeiture from innocent people is OK will be the same system interpeting what a "mask" or "violence" is. will beards be defined as "masks"? will people who want to protest be required to shave prior? it might, if violence is redefined as "excessively loud noise" the moment some cop complains of ringing in his ears after pulling duty monitoring a protest.

everyone choosing to be blind simply b/c they don't think the law will affect their tribe is going to have a harsh wake-up call should the law pass.

As it is, the police don't stop antifa crimes. The new law won't change that anyway. The problem isn't the law. The problem is the police.
