White supremacists have murdered 73 since Charlottesville rally

White supremacists have committed at least 73 murders since the far-right rally two summers ago in Charlottesville, Virginia.

That comes from a report released Thursday by the Anti-Defamation League that says 39 of the killings were “clearly motivated by hateful, racist ideology.”

The violence of the Unite the Right rally has led to an increase in white supremacist activity, according to the report, which is titled “Two Years Ago, They Marched in Charlottesville. Where Are They Now?”

“The violence on the streets of Charlottesville has kindled two major tracks of white supremacist activity,” the ADL said. “The first is the rampant dissemination of propaganda designed to promote their views and attract attention. The other, more troubling track is a broader series of violent attacks in the two years since Unite the Right.”

Among those attacks were the shootings at a Parkland high school, the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, the Poway Chabad and Saturday’s attack at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.

According to the report, the recent attacks are part of a four-year resurgence in white supremacist activity and activism driven in large part by the rise of the “alt right.”

The Unite the Right rally in August 2017, which left one counterprotester dead, drew far-right extremists from at least 39 states and presented approximately 50 different extreme-right movements, groups and entities, according to the report.

More than a dozen Unite the Right attendees have been convicted and sentenced for crimes related to violence committed during the rally, most notably James Alex Fields Jr. of Ohio, who was sentenced to two life sentences plus 419 years for deliberately driving his car into a crowd of protesters, killing Heather Heyer and injuring dozens more.

They are MAKING racists.

They’re saying, “DIE OUT completely by adopting my ideas, or become a Nazi.”

Agree here. They are creating conditions such that being a racist is the less objectionable choice. I've said for several years that the leadership in Europe are singlehandedly reviving the worst aspects of Nazi racism, and they are going to regret having stoked that nastiness.

Similar efforts are occurring here. They are playing with fire, and they need to stop it.

Uh, Leo Frank may very well have been innocent and was brutally lynched. Certainly the state of Georgia thinks so. Just because the ADL is corrupt like most liberal organizations today doesn’t mean it didn’t do the right thing in the early part of the 20th century.

I used to drive past the hanging spot off of Freys Gin Road, on the way to work every day. There was a commemorative plaque on the wall of a building there. The place is under the new I-75 Southbound on-ramp now.

If you read the records of the trials and the hanging testimony you might be shocked to see all of the family names are still prominent in Marietta political circles today. And the Democrats claim the parties switched...

but all things considered he probably did murder that girl.

There is no doubt in my mind that he did not.

Give it a study before you make an knowledgeable claim with the statement, "all things considered."

If you're wondering why this obviously false narrative of "white supremacy" is being hammered so hard, here is your answer:

Trump Support Up This Week Among Black Voters

And I find this explanation quite plausible. The entire left works to craft an agenda that they see as bringing them to power, and Trump, by making inroads into normally Democratic constituencies is a grave threat to their efforts to gain and hold power.

I’ve given it a study, Leo was most likely guilty.

The ADL was sometimes/often over-wrought in its defense of Jews under Abe Foxman, but I think he was a decent guy, and an honorable place for him at the table. Since he has been gone, it has been taken over by complete lying loons.

Meanwhile, in Chicongo, 251 Black Supremacists have murdered people in that city alone so far this year.

"White Supremacists" are not the real problem, here.

LOL! Interesting!

[TwelveOfTwenty]

As opposed to how many murdered by Democrats and Democrat supporters since then?

Not clueless. They knowingly perpetuate what they know is a hoax.
