Antifa Prepares For Preemptive Violence
ANTIFA/RADICAL LEFT PROMOTES GUN VIOLENCE -- LEFTIST GROUPS TAKE UP ARMS
‘If others have rifles, we’ll have rifles’: why US leftist groups are taking up arms.
Unlike some of the other masked antifascist groups at the march that day, the Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club consider themselves to be an “aboveground” organization, and choose not to cover their faces.
“Part of the reason we don’t cover our faces is that we don’t want to present as though we are a militia,” Fozz, a longtime member, explained. “We are not. We want to build relationships with people in our community, we want to appear approachable.”
While the group has not used deadly force, a former member of the group, Willem Van Spronsen, recently made headlines when he was killed by police after trying to set fire to Ice vehicles in a parking lot outside the Northwest Detention Center In Tacoma, Washington, a private immigration detainment facility.

ICE Detention Center Firebomb Attacker Was Antifa Activist
Willem Van Spronsen was a member of the Antifa paramilitary organization, the
Puget Sound John Brown Gun Club.
69-year-old Willem Van Spronsen was fatally shot on Saturday after throwing firebombs at buildings in the detention center. Police also say he attempted to set a commercial-size propane tank on fire, and managed to set some vehicles on fire. Court records of the deceased man show that he was previously arrested last year following a protest at the site.
Video footage of Van Spronsen, captured by Andy Ngo, show him participating in a Seattle demonstration with other members of Antifa. He is a documented member of the left-wing paramilitary organization, the John Brown Gun Club, based in Puget Sound.
Van Spronsen was previously arrested for protesting the facility in June 2018. During his previous arrest, the prosecutor states that he lunged at a police officer who was detaining a fellow protester. He later pled guilty to obstruction of justice. (Human Events)
