    A demonstration of 10.000, however, will reach far, far beyond the organizations.
    Haha do you actually believe that yourself. The hardcore antifa are recruited at universities, they come from well-off families.

    Having spent time with such groups, I don't believe - I know.

    Freaks, punks and squatters make up the active core. They are more likely to have a history of a dad with active hands than lots of money.
    Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban

    Freaks punks ans squaters are the active core, agreed. But than the comming of age comes and they become lawyers, or get a job at a NGO. And you know that's true. The extreme left has no problem with having a choice, they just have too much time to be bothering with making one, it's a hobby, pretty soon they will be wearing a tie.

    Former anarchists have a tendency to get a degree in sociology or similar, yes. Anarachist organizations are already NGO's, and quite a few stick to that field.

    They do not tend to become lawyers.

    Patently false, sorry.

    I suggest you read up on the Sex Pistols.

    Also, I'm a radical leftie. Where is my well-off family?

    The Antifascists over here were actually working class, the rich kids snobbed away at things such as the demonstrations. What happened then is that the fascists used to take pictures of them, attempting to track down their names and addresses and post them on a website called 'Red Watch', then they used to terrorise those people by mailing them dogpoop, egging their houses, encouraging crimes such as destruction of their property, spray painting the houses, and all that fun stuff.

    Are you going to mob-rule demonstrations wearing the typical black clothes and arafat-swahls?
