Brawls erupt as torch-wielding white supremacists march through University of Virginia campus
Daily News ^ | 8/12/17 | Jessica Chia

Dozens of white nationalists marched through the University of Virginia campus on Friday night carrying torches while chanting “You will not replace us.”

The demonstrators, who also yelled "blood and soil", a phrase tied to Nazi ideology, made their way through the Charlottesville campus before encircling a group of counterprotesters gathered around a statue of Thomas Jefferson.

A fight broke out, and some of the white nationalists swung their tiki torches at people, according to the Daily Progress.

Protesters wielding torches march through campus chanted "You will not replace us".

Members of both sides were reportedly hit with pepper spray, and several people were treated at the scene for minor injuries.

Police arrived on campus, declared it an unlawful assembly, and ordered the crowds to disperse. At least one person was arrested.

“Please tell us what hateful things they said. People need to know.”

“Chanting “White lives matter!” “You will not replace us!” and “Jews will not replace us!” several hundred white nationalists and white supremacists carrying torches marched in a parade through the University of Virginia campus last night.”

Those chants do not appear to be all that loving, but just maybe, hateful.

“If those same white people walked in a black neighborhood at night there’s a good chance they’d be killed. Idiots.”

I walked through Central City yesterday, and if we get a break in the rain today, I’ll walk through the Treme and lots of places downtown and Uptown. Heck, I might even head over to the 9th Ward.

Would you like to see this happen where you live?

Sure is eye-opening to note all the people wound up over white people exercising the same 1st Amendmendment rights that blacks, hispanics, gays and moslems have been exercising in recent times.

It’s a PR win.

Torch lit processions look fantastic. White people standing up for themselves is something new and exciting.

The Alt-Right has made conservatism inc and the official Republican party look weak an ineffective. As an example: The Alt-Right fought for, and won, the right of Spencer to appear at Auburn University. Young Americans for Freedom backed down (shortly after Spencer et al had showed them how to win) regarding a Coulter speech at UC Berkley.

Fighting for your identity and posterity (what do you thing the American Revolution was about?) is more inspiring than arguments over GDP and tax rates.

Most men under 50 (and some older too) looking to choose between arguments over abstract principles at CPAC and the torch light processions asserting their identity will choose the second.

“You are a Nazi yourself. Protesters should lose their jobs? Maybe you should lose your posting privileges.”

You may need to read my post again.

No where did I say that those protestors should lose their jobs.

Instead, I did say with the media saturation of this rally and the clear pictures that were taken of the participants, I indicated that many would lose their jobs.

It was their free choice to attend the protest where they chanted, “Jews will not replace us!” and will be the free choice of their employers to fire them for chanting, “Jews will not replace us!”

The only thing that is clear is that they might be replaced at work.

“The silent majority is getting its voice.”

And who among the silent majority want to chant, “Jews will not replace us?”

You can count me out.

“Chanting “White lives matter!”

Hateful? Really? Mask slipped just a bit there, sport.

Do White lives not matter? Should they matter?

Do you want you want to be replaced? Do you want your children to be a minority in their own country? It has not worked out well for Whites in South Africa or Zimbabwe.

Regarding the last chant: it speaks to the act that organized Jewry is heavily involved in pushing ‘diversity’ and population-replacement levels of immigration.

I did not suggest they should be fired, I simply said that when their companies get word that they attended the rally, they will be fired.

In my view, chanting “Jews will not replace us is hateful.”

I’m sorry we may disagree.

That’s bull. The torches were intended to evoke National Socialist Germany. They’re proud of it.

Hey, if you want to play stupid and act like this is just so fun and “exciting” then by all means go all in and make complete fools of yourselves, because that crap that Spencer pushes isn’t conservatism. You know damn well what he is about, and just think you can BS us as well as you BS yourself.

I’m sure while you guys are marching with touches, screaming about Jews and how genetically inferior non Europeans are, we here will actually take things a bit more seriously and stand with the nation and Constitution.

Bloody morons. Half of the time I seriously wonder if you guys are leftist plants. The moment you break out the flat-hand salutes it will be damn obvious.

Eight years ago I didn’t know any racists. Now they’re everywhere. Obama created them through White suppression.
