With every cowardly attack, Antifa is drawing a pretty clear picture of what the leftist militants are all about:
- They like to isolate small groups of people and physically attack them using far greater numbers. They especially like to gang up on lone victims.
- They aren't averse to hiding out of sight and then ambushing their targets. Killing those who don't share their beliefs isn't out of the question, either — in fact, it's celebrated.
- They despise the First Amendment — except when its protections work in their favor.
- After acting as the aggressors — and then getting their rear ends handed to them — Antifa militants tend to shift into the innocent-abused-victim role, screaming and shouting and howling in bewilderment as if the aggression thrown back in their faces was unprovoked.
- Even when in a gang, Antifa militants will back down from one person who's demonstrated the ability to knock them around.
- They're very good at running away.
What's the latest?
Oh, almost forgot: Antifa bros also like to attack their opponents from behind. And that stomach-turning tactic was on full display after the rally supporting President Donald Trump in Washington, D.C., on Saturday.
A couple was caught on video strolling down the sidewalk with a gang of Antifa militants following them.

Then the man — an apparent Trump supporter — declares as video rolls that "Jesus Christ is coming again!"
There's a brief cut in the clip that shows the couple having moved down the sidewalk about a building's length — and then a rather large Antifa militant comes up to the man from behind and wallops him in the side of the head:

Soon after the victim apparently was maced:

But does the leftist who hit the man stick around to finish him off? Nope. As noted above, Antifa also are very adept at running away — and that's just what this tough guy did.
Not that it deterred the victim at all, who put aside turning the other cheek for the moment and ran after his assailant:

But alas, it was to no avail; the Antifa bro was rather fleet of foot.
At some other point in the proceedings the victim — after being punched in the head from behind and maced — was tackled from behind near a bicycle by yet another Antifa militant who also punched him from behind several times:

Of course, like clockwork, the assailant scoots away. The victim appears to have some sort of baton on him. Maybe it would come in handy — if his attackers ever manage the guts to come at him face to face.
