Was the car owned by the 20 year old who got arrested? Why would any 20 year old ram such a car into a crowd? I mean it looked like a brand new expensive car and one would be proud to own it and go crazy if there would be even a tiny scratch on it.
Because the BSM has to relabel folks so they can be pushed off into a “two minutes of hate” corner and be destroyed. So the day before (Friday) the BSM was saying “alt-right” but by midnight Friday they were “White Nationalists” and by Saturday afternoon they were “White Supremacists”.
There was an excellent article yesterday about activism. Specifically marching, etc. the author pointed out that this isn’t something you do to change minds. It is something you do to show your power and intimidate. The Trump administration could stop the violence by crushing the people who are violent and demonstrating that they DON’T have the power anymore. Why Antifa is tolerated I don’t know.
There isn’t any need for the President to say much more than to express condolences for the victims and that the matter is under investigation and will be handled in accordance with the law by the justice system.
In other words going across the board in condemnation was the right thing to do.
But this was a “peaceful” protest, doncha know...
It was those “evil” permit carrying demonstrators that started it all.
This narrative was written a loooong time ago, waiting for the match to light the fire.
This has zero to do with Trump. Just the next smear on the list after the Russia Russia Russia narrative collapsed spectacularly.
I stand with Trump now more than ever.
This event was staged with 2 leftist groups attacking each other. NAZI’s are socialists, as is the Antifa group and BLM.
WELL IT APPEARS WE’RE GOING TO WAR.
Rarely distance?
I think the correct description would be "avidly embrace." Hasn't their rhetoric since Hillary's loss been all about urging people to violence, and then blaming Trump for it?
It sure seems like the media is focused on the thought crimes of a mass of unknown people over the actual crimes of individuals.
It seems to me that Obama did that routinely. No matter what happened, he was quick to blame "racism", and it worked out well for him: he set back the cause of peaceful coexistence between people of different races for decades. And we are seeing the fruits of that long labor in events like what happened in Charlottesville.
The same freaks want to remove Christmas, American flags and God.
We need Beauregard to RICO everyone and find their funding,or just ask the NSA for their dossiers!
Excellent point to reference Obama playing the “race card” as the universal answer to all issues. Your final sentence is the sad result. Thanks for bringing that context to the discussion.
Yes the President should limit himself to facts and not try to taint the investigation, he was smart not to make a “police acted stupidly” comment.
IMHO Trump did and said the correct things.
There have been KKKers, Neo-Nazis, etc forever, but they ceased to be a political force quite some time ago. They are a set of impotent and dysfunctional (or even mentally ill) people whose moment of glory is being out with their tiki-torches. But what has made them look more important and given them some gloss of justification (self-defense). is precisely the unopposed violence of their ideological opposites, the BLM and Antifa crowd.
Obama spent eight years whipping up black hostility to and fear of whites, as well as hostility towards law enforcement, and of course the white exploiters of the black resentment movement, such as Occupy, got in on the act too. Many of the Antifa placards in Charlotte had “revcom” printed at the bottom, meaning the Revolutionary Communist Party, a radical group that has been causing trouble for years.
Law and order has got to be restored and applied equally; no more “hands off” when black rabble rousers and white anarchists are out there burning down neighborhoods and beating passers-by. For years the white-power nutcases were pretty tame because they knew they had become sort of a laughing stock, but I think seeing the largely unopposed and even praised violence of the left has made them feel much more justified and has encouraged violence and aggression across the board.
No doubt about it. Soros is setting us up to be like Germany in the 1930's pitting violent leftists against other violent leftists mislabeled as being on the right. The outcome is good for Soros whether it is the fascist or communists that take over.
The only way out is to reject all violence as Trump did. It is very simple, either you support peace or you don't. If you show up with bats at a peaceful protest you are violent. If you show up in a vehicle to run down anyone, you are also violent.
I'm not "showing up" at any "protest." But if you attack me or my family ANYWHERE at ANY time I will, if I can, blow your brains out in the name of "peace."
Who is the guy you are talking about? It looks to me you didn’t even read the op-ed.
“The intentional vehicular murder of protesters Saturday was an act of domestic terrorism”
Assumes facts not in evidence. Everything else can be disregarded.
L
Same reason that violent communists (KPD) were tolerated in Germany in the 1930's The people reject facism whether corporate facism or socialist facism. That's really a minor distinction because even Obama would outsource his death panels to giant corporations. Trump rejects state control of any sort. He rejects violence. He rejects the deep state banana republic that Obama created. He can and will prosecute violent individuals in Antifa, but he will definitely not go after them politically.
Perhaps he will be pushed aside by an American corporate fascist who will go after Antifa as a whole. That would be a bad outcome.
