The mother of the man who allegedly plowed into a group of people protesting a white nationalist rally Saturday in Virginia said she knew her son was attending a rally -- but she thought it was a rally for President Trump, not for white nationalists.
In an interview Saturday night in Toledo, Ohio, with The Associated Press, Samantha Bloom said of her son James Alex Fields Jr., "I just knew he was going to a rally. I mean, I try to stay out of his political views. You know, we don't, you know, I don't really get too involved, I moved him out to his own apartment, so we -- I'm watching his cat."
Bloom was informed by The AP reporter that the rally was indeed organized by white nationalists. "I thought it had something to do with Trump. Trump's not a white supremacist," she said.
"He had an African-American friend so ...," she said before her voice trailed off.
In an interview with The Toledo Blade, she said, "I told him to be careful. [And] if they’re going to rally to make sure he’s doing it peacefully.”
Bloom told The AP she didn't even know about the incident until she spoke with the AP reporter. She said she was indeed surprised with the deadly outcome. "Yeah, that he would run his car into a group of people for... I'm really not clear on..."(continued)

Yes, there is definitely something odd about this interview.
She seems very disengaged from her son’s life.
And apparently, there is no father figure in the young man’s life either.
Lots of odd stuff associated with this story.
Has the person who was killed been identified yet?
I don’t know just the media showed his registration info. I didn’t see a date. Maybe 18? That’s when I registered.
Not that I know of.
They were still trying to notify family members. I have read that she wasn’t part of the protest, but was only a pedestrian.
I live in Cville and stayed in yesterday, except for a quick stop at a store a few blocks from where I live. The store and the parking lot were almost completely empty in the early evening. The cashier told me it had been like that the entire day.
I caught that too
You DO REALIZE you’re addressing one of the founding members of this board. ?
That article has a lot of information- thanks -
If mom is Jewish, then her son is Jewish.
So sad to lose a loved one for no good reason.
Stay safe!
As Mel Brooks says, “We know who the mother is!”
From the video i saw on FOX it appeared the AP ambushed her in a parking garage. She did not even know of her son’s involvement. I think what the AP did was outrageous.
I’ve seen reports that say a Heather Heyer?
TRUTH is the new HATE SPEECH.
When spoken about the “protected”, that is.
When I went to basic combat training at Fort Leonard Wood we had a Nazi painting murals in the orderly room. He had joined to learn small weapons (gun-smithing) and had been found out as a Nazi.
This woman is lying through her teeth.
The usual smear and hit-run media .
AP is pure propaganda .
One thing I like to know: Is it the producers own opinion we are being spoon fed? And are we just been fed what that persons personally private opinions is, which leads to the memory of Hitler’s propagandas just leading the Germans astray. The RATs reminds me very much coming out of madman Hitler’s mouth. No less -— no more but unadulterated garbage. It’s a form of faked news the snowflakes sucking in. Protest dressed in pink image of a pimp vaginas.
Give me a break, most childish ever seen at a protest and that’s all they got. ROFLMAO
He was in the military just long enough to get processed out.
