I know of at least three groups having "Antifa" in ther name in my town here in Germany, only on of them has been known to be on the militant side every once in a while, and even then that mostly meant "try to prevent right wing demonstration marches from succeeding, even when they are protected by the police". So while not strictly legal, most of their actions can still be put into "civil inobedience" category, and not really the "extremist action" one IMHO There is no formal "THE Antifa" in Germany. There's for sure the "Autonome Antifa" and the so called "black block", that would qualify as unacceptable militant / extremist IMHO, but as far as I can tell they are actually a very vocal, but nonetheless rather small fraction of all the different groups collecting themselves under the "Antifa" label. -- hartmut _______________________________________________ talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
