James Alex Fields Jr. was found guilty on Friday of killing Heather Heyer when he plowed his car into a group of counterprotesters last year at a "Unite the Right" rally that quickly turned violent in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Fields, 21, was convicted on all counts, including first-degree murder in connection to Heyer's death and five counts of aggravated malicious wounding, three counts of malicious wounding and one hit and run count for injuring dozens of others with his vehicle.

IIRC, his car was backed into by another car.

Is that the case?

Good. The sooner this racist scumbag is shown off the better. If they need someone to throw the switch, I’m available. Most of the preceding comments are disturbing in the extreme. Has FR become an outpost foe white supremacists, fringe conspiracy theorists and the like?

He’s a guy who had never been to Charlottesville. He intended to exit through another street, but Antifa moved a road closed sign blocking that street. His car was hit with signs and sticks and there was an armed Antifa member on the same street. He’s a scapegoat.

Richard Spencer is controlled opposition.

If you hear Richard Spencer is organizing or attending any event, do not attend. Stay far, far away.

When your life is on the line, don’t settle for a public defender.

It’s not the smart thing to do.

Apparently since he used a Dodge Challenger it was first degree. WOW! First degree? Yikes. And had it not been for aunt-teefuh he most likely wouldn’t have reacted as he did. They skate though as usual.

Your disparagement of fellow FReepers is disturbing enough for me to have checked your profile. You do realize that as a Traditionalist Catholic it's you who is a member of a fringe hate group according to the SPLC, whose categorization is accepted and utilized by the FBI, don't you?

Guess not.

Exactly.

I am glad Fields is going to prison.

May Fields rot in eternal hell.

I am guessing you did not look at the right profile as I am not Roman Catholic.

Calm down there, sweet pea. You’ve been to one too many “white privilege” seminars.

No, I looked at your profile, NRx. Beg pardon, I see now that you're Orthodox. Six of one, half a dozen of the other, as far as the SPLC is concerned. You oppose gay marriage? Hater. You oppose birth control and abortion? Hater.

You're no better than this man, according to the SPLC and hence the FBI. You're lumped right in with him.

Understand the implications of this, please. You seem like a relatively intelligent human being. Put two and two together.

most public defenders are excellent because they do it all the time

I’ve read things along those lines, too. Not disagreeing. Thanks for the info.

Put him on Trump’s pardon list, if he survives whatever amount of prison, til then. I hope if the kid has a public defender, he’s a hungry one. This is outrageous! Now I want to go out and protest! Was the kid supposed to sit there and let the mob attack him?
