Aside from this random act of journalism--the media has gone way beyond bias now. They know that Antifa, Black Lives Matter and other left wing extremist groups with a long history of violence, were just as responsible for the violence at Charlottesville, if not more. And they are deliberately lying to give cover for their violent leftist fellow travelers in antifa, BLM etc.

One simple questions to sort this out:

Who had a permit to hold a rally, and who did not?

Witness #1: "I was in the front of the rally and I saw the guys in the white hats starting to hit people."
Witness #2: "I was in the back of the rally and I saw the guys in the black hats starting to hit people."

Media: "So you both agree that Trump started it?"

Witness #1 and #2: "What? No. That's not what we're saying at all."

Media: "Okay. It's settled. Trump started this."

Absolutely

Just look at the stupid racist genocidal crap we see posted here from college “professors”

Who still have their jobs

Then there were the Antifa assaults

And blm encouragement and cheering of cops being shot

Pigs in a blanket
Fry em like bacon

Remember that? Now ask, who were the “haters” here and what did Obama & Holder/Lynch have to say about that? How hysteria did the enemedia get over that? How many cops were assaulted and killed? How many plots were busted?

Remember when they made excuses for the King Rodney rioters?

FIGHT BACK against these bastards . . . go on OFFENSE

The answer was simple: one side was chanting "Blood and Soil!", the translation of a infamous Nazi slogan Blut und Boden. The other side was also itching for a fight. Since the Virginia state police didn't keep them far apart, it was a political powder keg waiting to go off--and go off it did.

The MSM knows that the groups in question (Antifa, BLM, etc) are all funded by Open Society (ie George Soros and their ilk) which wants one worldwide government without borders. The members of these groups are just pawns in a much larger game of chess that the globalists are frantically putting into place before the masses can figure out their plan. They know that there is a short window with which to implement their vision and they will use all the resources at their disposal to make it happen. This is a battle of principalities...pray, pray, pray.

Antifa was using violence in a deliberate attempt to provoke violence in return -- which worked all too well. Failure to condemn that makes you a hypocrite at best, and an accessory after the fact at worst.

Unite The Right had a permit to protest. There was no violence at their protest until Antifa showed up to provide it.

Antifa had no permit to protest, so their protest was illegal.

When violence occurs pursuant to committing a crime, you are legally liable for it -- even if you didn't do it yourself.

Antifa violated Federal law:

18 U.S. Code § 241 - Conspiracy against rights:

If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or

If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured—

They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.

=> https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/241

And the city of Charlottesville did also:

18 U.S. Code § 242 - Deprivation of rights under color of law:

Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or to different punishments, pains, or penalties, on account of such person being an alien, or by reason of his color, or race, than are prescribed for the punishment of citizens, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.

The Democrats won.

The rally was cancelled.

When a team wins a game, do they then attack the other team?

In court, does the winner in a civil trial then go over and attack the other lawyer?

No.

The Democrats won and then attacked the people leaving the rally.

It’s the Democrats that started this one.

AFTER THEY WON!

Who started it? I surmise that the NWO ruling elite and George Soros indirectly started it by their control of Governor Terry McCaulif and the leftist and RINO establishment political class

Case in point. Back in the 1990s at the advent of the first Gulf War,the little town a few miles from me,Bell Vernon,Pa. held a pro-war Parade. Me and my family attended. Lots of biker Nam vets and other service members. About three bus loads of anti war folks showed up. The State Police would not let them off the buses and turned them all around and made them leave. This (or something like this) could have been done,but wasn't. Why? We all know why.

“lots of guns, utilizing Virginia’s loose firearm laws”

Hmmm...I have yet to see a single firearm in any photo or video?

...

Almost, but calling violent law breaking anarchists, anti-racism protesters, isn’t journalism.

This was a fight between the Democratic Party old guard and the new guard over the future of their party.

The big loser in this fight is the memorials to even older Democrats.

Had Antifa not showed up, there would have been *no* violence.

And if Heather Heyer had stayed home, she’d still be alive. But no - she went there with the full intent to take part in a violent protest. There’s a moral here somewhere, something found in the gospel of Matthew, something about swords...
