I also thought it was weird that The Punk called it a state of Emergency before anything happened!

Excuse me, but you are the one that suggested that “whites” as a group, have their own set of rights to assert.

The easiest way to cop out of a weak argument on FR, is to call someone you disagree with a leftist.

Worker’s World Party is involved... Ramsey Clark’s group which openly supports North Korea.

“Never ceases to amaze me who many people, even those on here, who appear to think that white people have no legitimate self-interests. They are quick to join the left in their denunciation of any one or any group that identifies itself as white.”

Says a guy who calls himself EurAm!

Lol.

What are the chances that George Soros fingerprints are some how involved?

My thoughts as well. Some plants from the left to organize a movement and make the right and Trump look bad. All of a sudden, David Duke shows up? And who are some of these so called leaders on the alt right? I've never heard of them before.

Geesh....how many KKK kids are there
= = = = = = = = = =
College students(?) or not, doubt most of them could spell KKK much less tell you what they are.

A ‘rent a mob’ is a ‘rent a mob’ and the beauty of it is the only ‘object’ is the pay check, not really the cause.

Probably just enough dissidents (good & bad) to keep everyone in a state of anger.

Remember during the ‘Rodney Riots’, some of the defense was ‘them boys wouldn’t have done that if they weren’t encouraged by the others’ so it was ‘free because of association’ and the threshold of the generation that figured you could do anything you wanted and there would be no consequences.

The Narrative is that the Left has justified anger and need to protest that which is denied them.
The new term ‘Alt-Right’ is the new label to use during the ‘Two Minutes of Hate’. All the ‘Progressives/Regressives’ have is identity politics.

I’ve no doubt that FBI agents have been provocateurs in the past. I’m just not sure that is what’s happening now. Communists and fascists have been boxing ears in the street for more than a century now with no provocation required. Add the car hitting pedestrians and urine balloons and you’ve got a circus with no outside help required.

I have to admit, they have some memes that make you wonder. Google CNN Jews. How did the folks at CNN fail to realize pumping libtard propaganda into the world like an open sewer and being just about ALL Jewish would go unnoticed? Check the image for yourself. I don’t consider myself anti Semitic or racist or any of it but you gotta ask yourself how any group who wields that much influence can be so stupid as to become exclusively Mormon, Muslim, whatever but to BE Jewish and do that is just plain stupid.

Looks pretty intentional to me....

Hate to piss in yer cornflakes, but that ain't the "perp car." The white convertible was on the receiving end of being rammed by the Dodge.

. . . angry about the planned removal of a statue of Gen Robert E Lee from Charlottesville. Gen Lee commanded the pro-slavery Confederate forces in the US Civil War of 1861-65.

The Ctrl-Left media continues to inaccurately characterize our first civil war.

Looking at this photo really makes me wonder if it wasn’t a friendly fire incident.

That’s what I mean. Soros behind the scenes pulls this crap all the time with his minions that include Duke etc.

I wonder how many democrats in power in the are also helping? They'd want nothing more to build something like this up to attack Trump with it.

The FBI plants have a history of being agitators who promote militancy and even perpetrate violence.

Deep State and Soros are working hard to try and take down Trump. It would surprise me in the least to have a plant in these groups. David Duke seem to pop up out of know where and now is trying to attach himself to Trump and his base.

Remember all the reports on the "far left" protesters at Berkeley when Milo was going to speak?

No, me either.
