Undercover video shows Antifa teaching how to 'eye gouge'
James O'Keefe
An undercover video released Thursday by James O'Keefe's Project Veritas shows an instructor for the far-left militant movement Antifa teaching newcomers how to injure people.
"The whole goal of this, right, it to get out there and do dangerous things as safely as possible," says an instructor for Antifa, which is blamed for much of the violence that has enveloped the protests of the death of George Floyd over the past week.
"Practice things like an eye gouge. It takes very little pressure to injure someone's eyes."

The video show Nicholas Cifuni of Rose City Antifa discussing the importance of hiding the fact that they are armed.
"Police are going to be like perfect we can prosecute these f------ look how violent they are, and not that we aren't but we need to f----- hide that s---."
The video was created with the help of an infiltrator who warned of becoming the target of violence if identified.
Antifa is a loose collection of groups, networks and individuals that describes itself as "anti-fascist." Arising mostly from the anarchist movement, it gained momentum after the Charlottesville rally in 2017. The instigation of violence amid the current protests prompted President Trump to propose designating Antifa as a terrorist organization.
The video also shows Adam Rothstein of Rose City Antifa saying, "If you ruin their day, if you like heckle them … you make them feel like they look ridiculous, make them feel outnumbered … and therefore, their whole yay yay America Trump thing is gonna go by the wayside."
O'Keefe said it's a "sad time in our nation’s history with Antifa activists hijacking #blacklivesmatter protests in cities across the country, attacking the police and engaging in violence."
"In many places, it appears the violence is planned, organized & driven by anarchic left extremist groups — far-left extremist groups using Antifa-like tactics," he said.
The unidentified Project Veritas undercover journalist says Antifa members "do not hesitate to either push back or incite some kind of violence."
In our classes and in our meetings, before we do any sort of demonstration or Black Bloc, we talk about weapons detail and what we carry and what we should have."
