And was it even right wing in the sense of the conservatism we know? There are fronts out there.

Of course, they mean more dead cops by natural causes, right Yoav? Just as some people say that when all the old white people die off, things will get better.

And we still don’t know the entire story of how the woman died in Charlottesville.

Well let’s face it, most of these alleged groups would not identify at all with the Dems. Sorry, it’s just the truth. So, in that sense, right wing.

These people are mentally ill delusional. The person who wrote this believes it.

Are those regular leftist thugs or the Moslem variety?

We don’t actually know what happened or who was whom at all in Charlottesville.

Convenient for the leftists, come to fight, make the crowd demographics murky, then blame the group that actually planned to come.

But that doesn’t mean they are not open to exploitation against the whole. Dollars to donuts a Soros figure saw this group that wanted to protest the relocation of confederate monuments and gleefully said hey! The perfect foil for our loyal lefties!

Oh? “What do we want? Dead cops etc.”, professors hitting people over the head with bike locks, causing chaos to drive conservative speakers off the stage or to cancel all together, riots, looting, arson.

WaPo Fake.

Goebbels would be proud of his Washington Post; they learned their socialist lessons well. Even as political lies go, this one is a whopper . . . so they repeat it more often.

When did THAT happen? The Left has been rooted in violence ever since the Jacobin Terror.
