Are ‘Antifa’ and the Alt-Right Equally Violent?

[...]

Brian Levin, criminal justice professor at California State University at San Bernardino who is an expert on hate groups, said ideology aside, street violence is generally increasing at political demonstrations, as extremist groups are egged on by each other’s words and actions:

--
To be sure, there is a violent subsection of antifa which is getting much publicity and much more prominent — to say they’re not is just false. By the same token there isn’t a moral equivalency in philosophy, but there is an escalating arms race with regard to extremists on different sides, of which I think alt-right are now at the forefront.

No. No moral equivalence. No equal blame.

nwsun, while both sides do have unsavory elements it's far from your "Tit for tat, both sides".

It's the false equivalence, your conservative 'get out from under' misrepresentation, which is patently untrue.
