Pro-Antifa protesters caused a ruckus in Washington State on Monday as city officials recognized the leftist movement as a domestic terrorist organization, according to multiple reports and footage.
Two masked leftists with Antifa and black anarchist-style flags loudly interrupted a public meeting as Battle Ground Mayor Eric Overholser read aloud a proclamation that condemned Antifa, The Chronicle and The Post Millennial reported. Police were seen arresting one shrieking agitator who refused to leave.
âFuck you!â a woman with the black flag began exclaiming as the mayor spoke, footage from The Post Millennial shows. Officials then motioned for police to ask her to leave. âIâll stand right here. Iâm not fucking moving,â she said.
The Antifa proclamation passed unanimously as the incident unfolded, leading to a two-minute recess. The footage shows officers gradually pushing the woman out of the room. âHold on, hold on, hold on. Thereâs no need to get physical,â said her companion, a purple-haired individual with a male-sounding voice.
Overholserâs proclamation recognizes President Donald Trumpâs September designation of Antifa as a domestic terrorist group warranting greater law enforcement vigilance, The Post Millennial reported.
The woman began repeatedly screaming expletives as police escorted her out, with the other protester trying to block the officersâ path and pleading with them, the footage shows.
âIâm just trying to make sure that everybody stays calm and fuckinâ rational,â the purple-haired protester said.
Officers eventually pinned the woman to a wall outside the meeting room and restrained her arms while shouting âhey!â to someone off-camera.
âYouâre fucking breaking my goddamn wrist!â the arrestee screamed, adding, âlet go of me!â
