Antifa is not just an idea; it’s a dangerous organization with a similar structure to that of an Islamic terror cell, according to the National Police Association spokesperson and retired Sgt. Betsy Brandner Smith.

“Antifa is more than just an idea, Antifa has quite a history, going back to the 20s and 30s and Hitler’s brown shirts and then we come into the anarchists of the 60s through to today,” Smith told The Epoch Times “Crossroads“ program.
