Following the violent attacks by purported ‘anti-Fascist’ activists on peaceful protesters demonstrating against the Halal Expo at the Melbourne Showgrounds yesterday, one of Victoria’s highest ranking police officers has proposed banning masks at future protests.
The cowardly assault by masked activists left one protester bleeding heavily from the head and others injured and beaten with flag poles.
Late last year, masked ANTIFA (‘anti-Fascist’) activists attacked a group of protesters who were marking the 10th anniversary of the Cronulla riots in Sydney. One ANTIFA activist confessed after the attack that “peaceful confrontation is not going to work” for their purported ‘anti-Fascist’ goals (which funnily enough seems to closely resemble actual Fascism).
Anti-mask laws have been previously introduced in Canada and in several states in the United States. Similar laws are also in place in several European nations.
Would you support the introduction of laws banning the wearing of masks at protests in Australia or elsewhere? Tell us what you think.
