I am in favor of letting the police do their job. I don't think it's my job or your job or anyone other private person's job. And anyone who is favor of armed groups breaking the law saying they're there to protect polling places is as bad as Antifa in my book. That's anarchy too. Just like Antifa are anarchists. We have a government -- we should obey the laws they make.
So far, I've not seen either Antifa or BLM saying they intend to interfere with elections. We have seen right-wing groups saying they would. We have heard Trump urging his supporters to show up and do it when he should have been urging people to let the police do it.
It reminds me of how he tweeted, "Revolution" when armed men went into the capitol building of Michigan. Trump seemed to enjoy that because the governor was a Democrat. Here's a picture of how they behaved towards the police guarding the capitol building.
Would Michigan's Capitol be ready for a 200-man attack?
Protesters toting assault rifles crowded inside the Capitol on April 30, and photos of angry, maskless men screaming in the faces of Michigan State Police officers went international.
And Trump liked it? He liked it because they were angry with a Democratic governor. He is not really a law and order guy.

The constitution talks about the right of peaceful assemblies. People wielding guns and shouting at cops and trying to break into the legislature doesn't strike me as "peaceful." Those people were trying to scare the governor and legislature who were elected by the people. They're anti-democratic. They don't believe we should respect the results of elections. People are so wound up now in Michigan, they were plotting to kidnap the governor. They also had planned to attack the police so they couldn't protect the governor. They had plans to make a bomb. The FBI was on the job and nailed them before they could do it. That happened -- did you hear about it? I started a thread about it -- I thought it great news that FBI as a law enforcement agency showed us they were doing a great job -- but no one responded -- it's as if people thrive on negative news and ignore it when law enforcement actually does a good job.
We don't have to guess that maybe someone would do it the way you say Antifa and BLM might be planning something. There are some right-wing groups that are dangerous. Both the FBI and Homeland Security know it and have said so.
