The dailymail is reporting that he only plowed into the protesters after they threw rocks at his car.

[Tanniker Smith]

Yeah, that’s not a great defense.

[Behind Liberal Lines]

Not a justification at all even if true

[Sacajaweau]

So he came all the way from Ohio....and drove TOWARD the crowd...

“The dailymail is reporting that he only plowed into the protesters after they threw rocks at his car.”

He can ponder the irony as he sits in prison for the rest of his life.

[Karl Spooner]

Good have been a lot worse if it weren't for those cars in front on him.

=========================================

[MNDude]

Supposedly he’s a registered Republican?

[gaijin]

This was BOUND to happen.

AntiFa sees traffic-locked cars as fair game, even boring, apolitical cars.

He’s a white guy in MUSCLE CAR. You know, that type that The Patriarchy drives.

It doesn’t merit DEATH, but the guy was probably a car freak and the blue-haired set decided they were going to f*ck up this rich honkey’s car.

AND HE SAID NO.

Hey, sorry..!

People are getting sick of people laying down in front of their hoods or screwing up their car.

This was BOUND to happen and it’s probably going to happen MORE.

"Tech reporter for The Hill​ Taylor Lorenz reports that police believe the suspect didn’t intentionally mow down protesters out of malice intent. Lorenz reports that authorities believe that the suspect acted out of fear as protesters swarmed the vehicle, some allegedly acting violent." http://coed.com/2017/08/12/james-alex-fields-jr-charlottesville-suspect-arrest-driver-rams-car-into-protesters-white-nationalist-rally-counter-protest-injuries/

Did the cops in VA say if Fields was part of the nationalist protests?

That had to be one of their fist questions to Fields.

[ifinnegan]

The question is why was he there in Viginia?

Reginald Denny taught me to never slow down or stop when surrounded by a mob.

Down shift and gun it.

[LeoWindhorse]

I’m sorry , this does not bother me much . In fact I have been wondering when folks were going to start pushing back on these anarchist MF’s , Hard . Not surprising that they got what they deserved

[mrsmith]

There is something in law about holding the causers of a crime at fault.
In this case that would be the violent counter-protesters who deliberately frightened the driver.
Doubt the media lets that get much play.

This kid needs a hard-working lawyer.
Maybe in ten years he can salvage his and his family’s lives.

There is absolutely NO JUSTIFICATION for this man’s actions. None whatsoever. He should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

And I would say the same with respect to the rabid anti-Trump guy who shot his neighbor to death, as reported by the Gateway Pundit yesterday.

Each “alleged” perpetrator killed an innocent victim whose politics differed from his own. The shooter was a deranged Democrat. The guy in the car was a deranged Republican.

In the former instance, only one media outlet of which I am aware reported the party affiliation of the shooter. But every media outlet from here to Kingdom Come has led with the fact that the driver of the car was a “white supremacist.”

[Lonely Are The Brave]

The left media is priming the pump for all it's worth not even bothering to point out the other side against the white supremacist were armed and out for blood, too. They want Pres. Trump to genuflect to what is really small potatoes in the long run. If the police had done their job and kept the groups separate, it never would have happened.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Pro-tip: drive AWAY from the crowd, call a cop for a police report, and call your insurance company. I don’t care how tough a 20 year old thinks he is, he’ll find out day 1 of prison and won’t be happy about it.

WSJ reports Field being held for criminal homicide.
