“I’m not sure I blame the police for not wanting to wind up in the middle, job or no job.”

I blame Virginia’s governor, the odious Terry McAuliffe, for not ordering the Virginia State Police to Charlottesville by last Friday. This confrontation was brewing for months before August 12th. Everyone knew there was serious potential for violence, and a “police wall” separating the two groups would have staved off much of it.

In Berkely and in Crown Heights circa 1991, they just stood around and did nothing.

This is the guy with Fox who is reporting that the cops essentially ran away from the fight.

Sounds pretty persuasive coming from McKelway.

Great video. You need to understand the demographics of Central Virginia.

Charlottesville is deep blue, but it is surrounded by a lot of red counties. I think there are a lot of regional law enforcement types that know what happened.

I have to say that I have been shocked at the blatant lying I have seen and read, Even on NRO.

it was too scary for the police, but safe enough for Doug McKelway?
