The media band wagon on this topic is sickening and Fox Left wing Radio is the worst.

They literally convicting and smearing this person before a police report is issued .

Jeff Sessions comments about domestic terrorism are new low for this pitiful man .

Car attack and other aspects of this incident look like a false flag operation by left-wing activists, who are trying to hang the “white nationalist” sign on the Trump Administration.

I know this has everyone wound up, but you need to remember:

It. Won't Work.

The American people are way ahead of the Media and Swamp.

We're going to have to grit our teeth while the Enemy engages in these smears, but these smears will not be effective.

Given all the evidence of the utter failure of the Media to wield the power they have historically had—but which has now been irretrievably lost—I'm surprised that more around here keep falling back into the belief that the Propaganda Media is finally going to succeed "this time".

They aren't. They've been exposed as frauds, and there's no putting the toothpaste back in the tube. The Media will remain frauds in perpetuity, until such time as someone else is running it.

Stop ascribing power to the Media that they no longer have! Don't accept their talking points: point out the fact that they remain fraudulent, and are trying to sow division among decent people. Trump supporters are simply not racists, and the Democrats and Media repeating that smear endlessly will never convince any significant segment of the population that they are. Did nobody watch the election season last year? They tried the same thing. Endlessly. It didn't work.

This issue should NOT be about white nationalists or any of their beliefs..

The REAL issue here is DENYING others' freedom of speech rights. Doesn't matter what a group believes, they are entitled to EXPRESS THEIR OPINIONS REGARDLESS OF EXTREMES. If Team Soros had ALLOWED the nationalists to march or PEACEFULLY ASSEMBLE, the violence would not have happened.

Team Soros' Antifa are the perpetrators here. End of story. THE POLICE BEING TOLD TO STAND DOWN IS A BROKEN RECORD PERPETRATED BY DEMONRAT POLITICIANS WE SEE OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THE VIOLENCE WAS ALLOWED TO HAPPEN IN ORDER TO TWIST THE TRUTH TO STRANGELY DELEGITIMIZE TRUMP.

One way to combat this tired scene is for extremist groups to get permits to march ALL THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY, THEN CANCEL. CANCEL, CANCEL, CANCEL. This will force the Soros buses to scramble throughout the country then disband. They will soon tire of the false starts and lose their momentum.

The citizens of Charlottesville are the ones who have the right to decide what to do with the statue. It’d be a diiferant matter if the statue is on federal property.

But the video also clearly shows people running to get out of the way before someone strikes the vehicle with what appears to be a bat.

Everyone, of every ideology, needs to disavow Nazis and Hitler.

How often do you require, 'architect'? My uncle got his head blown apart on D-Day.. defeating the lunatic Nazis... I am sick and tired of pimples like David Duke getting necklaced around my neck. Do not think for a minute, that the David Dukes of this world, know full well how to get the lying hypocrite media to carry their attention whoring water. Problem is, the lying hypocrite media fully support and ignore the lefts other terrorists Intifada..

I assert there are a lot more “Flat Earthers” in this country than real Nazis.

Beyond the baseball bat to the tail light there is nothing.

Right. And other than a bullet in his head, Lincoln had an uneventful night at the Ford Theater.

Go back over some of the threads posted by Freepers with links to lengthy YouTube clips from all over Charlottesville on Saturday. One of the common themes in many of them was a bunch of leftist mutants attacking any motorist with out-of-state license plates.

This guy may have been chased down this street by other mutants who had already attacked him.

I think you are correct on that point. The election of Trump symbolized the outing of the media as nothing more than a political arm of the DemonRat party. Failure of Lynch and Comey to prosecute Hillary AND THE MEDIA PROTECTING HER also played heavily in Trump’s victory. The media’s constant attempts to FRAME OUR REALITY AND ESTABLISH FAKE NARRATIVES no longer works. Trump’s election symbolizes this.

How many of those “citizens of Charlottesville” are left-wing college kids who are from other cities in Virginia and other American states?

Once they graduate, they’re gone, so they are not really citizens of Charlottesville.

Years ago, I lived in Santa Barbara, California. It used to drive me nuts when college kids at the University of California at Santa Barbara were allowed to vote in local elections, but most of them were not from Santa Barbara and high-tailed it out of there once they graduated. But the liberal politicians and policies they voted for remained.

"You can be sure we will charge and advance the investigation toward the most serious charges that can be brought because this is unequivocally an unacceptable evil attack,” Mr. Sessions said, adding that terrorism and civil rights investigators were working on the case.

WTH?????? This is the head of the department of "Justice"? He just played prosecutor, judge and jury all at once with that quote without any investigation of the facts?

That alone should disqualify him from serving in this position.

I have no doubt this guy panicked and floored it. Whether he overreacted is a debate AFTER THE FACT BUT THE TRUTH IS MOST OF US WOULD REACT IN THIS SAME WAY, THINKING "WHAT HAVE I GOT TO LOSE, I AM GOING TO DIE ANYWAY"

I once ran a red light at a major intersection because some very bad dudes WANTED MY B*TCHIN' CAR. The trouble began long before in a parking lot where a group of inner city thugs walked towards me in my vehicle when I immediately pulled out. I COULD SENSE SOMETHING BAD WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN so I drove right through them regardless whether they got out of the way or not. They then ran back towards their car, got in and started to chase me, I recognized their car behind me. I ran a red light AND THEY STOPPED AT THE RED LIGHT WHICH INDICATED TO ME THEY COULDN'T RISK GETTING CITED BECAUSE OF THEIR RECORDS, THEY WERE ARMED OR CARRYING DRUGS.

I got away with my life. That car NEVER let me down. I was prepared but I would NEVER run a red light, EVER, but I did that night because I knew I HAD TO OR ELSE.. The guy in the Dodge Challenger was thinking the same thing.

Well A.G. Sessions.....

Are you going to go after the Mayor with accessory to murder???

After all the Mayor of Charlottesville knowingly and willfully ordered the Charlottesville police to stand down AND the same police told the protesters to march back through the ANTIFA and BLM crowd.

The dead woman would be alive today had the Charlottesville police done their job instead of running and hiding like cowards.

Jeff are you going to arrest Soros too or are you going to continue to delay and make every excuse in the book why you will not go after Soros?

You said - “”I don’t get it.””

I’ve been shaking my head for the past three days. I don’t get/understand any of it. The one group protesting the removal of Robert E. Lee’s statue from a city park had a permit for a rally. Who invited the counter protesters? Were members of the original group with a permit causing any problem? Did the counter protesters have a permit? If not, why weren’t they thrown out of the area? Oh! - Freedom of Speech, right? WITHOUT A PERMIT?

Why can’t we just deal with the simple story? WHY did the news find the need to LABEL the original protesters? WHY didn’t they put the emphasis on the reason they were there? Did they go to cause trouble? Who were they going to cause trouble with if they were the only ones there?

If the reason for the rally is true, they didn’t want the statue of Robert E. Lee torn down. I don’t either and in spite of where I live now, I grew up in Yankee territory....
For every Confederate statue torn down because of any government’s actions, one statue of civil rights leaders has to go also..along with every street named after them in this country. Erase history - erase ALL OF IT!

Everyone here knows the answers to my questions - the troublemakers in this country can be ready to go at the drop of a hat or transportation from any place in the nation to a place that doesn’t need their interference!

Why did Trump feel the need to placate the complainers and come out a few minutes ago to place labels on the people who had the permit to hold the rally? They are remarking on FOX how great he covered his faux pas from over the weekend. HOW? By further labeling people?

The city was full of idiots that day. We can all agree on that. BUT as others here have said, why don’t we hear this about the driver running his car into the crowd - “We don’t know what his motive was.” That person has been named as being part of the ORIGINAL PROTEST GROUP (who had the permit)...

Had he been part of the counter protesters, how soon would we have heard that news?

People are sick and tired of the double standards practiced every day in this country. And it doesn’t help when the president bows down to the perpetual complainers and feels the need to clarify his remarks....

So far this has been a very successful op for the liberals.

They have introduced new words to the countries vocabulary which use enough ambiguity to confuse the Dalai Lama, and redefined a couple more.
