Cowardly May 2012 Leftist ARA Antifa Attack on Peaceful Nationalists at Ashford House (Tinley Park, IL)
This was the attack on a Chicago area restaurant by members of an ideologically “Anarcho-Marxist” gang known as ARA/Antifa. Five members of an Indiana chapter called HARM were sentenced to prison. A Sixth is awaiting trial. More suspects are still at large.
The radical left refused to denounce the violence and some on the left even praised it. The Southern Poverty Law Center [SPLC] dedicated an issue of their magazine to romanticizing the attack, calling the thugs “flawed freedom fighters” and “a constructive force.”
