You mean Billy Buckner.

Yeah, the joke later was:

Did you here Billy Buckner was almost hit by a bus?

No! What happened? Is he OK?

Yeah, he’s fine. Bus went right between his legs!

Seriously, though, the real goat was Bob Stanley, the relief pitcher. All he needed was 3 outs. He got two, and then—bam! He throws a wild pitch. Mets come back and tie it. Buckner’s debacle was later in the game...

Oh now we have sanctimonious Lindseed saying how he is glad the White groups don’t like him.

Wonder if we will have pro-Trump Gingrich or anti today?

Brilliant post. , I don't know if I would trust Cruz or not after researching what he and his wife have been up to over the years

He and they should call out the press on their racial fanning the flames and steal their phraseology NOW which today and this week will be , Trump’s Alt Right, skinheads, white nationalists...They will be called ‘HIS’ supporters’... He needs to get ahead of this now and turn the argument around...he needs to call out Soros or they will own the narrative.

You are absolutely correct and I'm watching happen just as you said right now on the wall ass show as his black panel memeber is all but calling trump a racists.Evidently Trump didnt say exadclty what the DNC wanted him to say so he's a racist.

Sad times we live in. Newt makes the case that univ. professors have to make hiding places on campus since they know the students will come after them when somethning happens they don't like but when BLM people do anything its A-OK.

What you described is our illusionary two party system.

What we're experiencing now is a type of civil war, the voters versus the bureaucracy, and at times it's hard to tell who's on which side.

The picture of him holding that shield, the Vanguard thing looks like two rolling pins crossed. What are they suppose to represent?

Looks like there was violence on both sides during the riots. Why should the President immediately condemn this kid when all the facts are not in? He knows more than most as to what was happening, but it looked like the BLM and Anifa were doing their usual violence.

Buckner was there because of his bat not his defense. He should have been pulled at the start of the inning.

No mention of the role of BLM and Antifa who have been causing violence throughout the country.

Who shot the Rep Congressmen at the ballfield? Who trashed the campus and town at Berkeley? Or Ferguson? Or stopped the Trump campaign rally in Chicago? Or trashed Portland?

The list of leftist violence against Trump supporters is a mile long. The overwhelming amount of violence is being committed by the Left who are trying to stifle free speech. This one incident doesn't change that equation. Trump was correct to say that hate is coming from all sides, but the reality is that the Left is the primary perpetrator.

The demonstration in VA was primarily about keeping public statues of Confederate heroes intact and in their current locations.

Fasces, the symbol of power in ancient Rome from which the modern term "fascist" is derived. It's a bunch of reeds bound together and carried by the leading entourage of Roman emperors.

Yup. Anybody who shows up wearing face masks and carrying baseball bats and crowbars is not a peaceful demonstrator. I'm not defending the puke in the car, but I sure with some here on FR would stop referring to the Soros goons that were there as "peaceful".

The left showed up to fight the White rally and that is what they got. Surprised there were no guns.

What they do not get is one of the major reasons people are leaving the DNC is not everyone in America or the world hates America as much as they do.

Democrats and the world's 'elites' hate America because our 'strong middle class concept' is a threat to their power and thuggery.

No doubt the left probably started the whole thing. It's what they are hired to do. But the skinheads were dumb to fall into their trap and even dumber to use muzzie tactics with a car.About as dumb as you can get.

As I said before the left doesn't care.It's all politics to them. They will blame Trump no matter what. The goal has not changed,impeach Trump at any cost.

President fails as healer-in-chief=F.Chuck open on MTP.

...Trump will challenge cRuz to work w/DOJ to ‘dig into ALL aspects of crowd disposition, ....etc....

.... he (cRuz)/they should call out press for ‘fanning the flames’....


Looks like cRuz is already ‘on it’...and fanning flames.....

The Nazis, the KKK, and white supremacists are repulsive and evil, and all of us have a moral obligation to speak out against the lies, bigotry, ant-semitism, and hatred that they propagate,” Cruz said in a statement.

Having watched the horrifying video of the car deliberately crashing into a crowd of protesters, I urge the Department of Justice to immediately investigate and prosecute this grotesque act of domestic terrorism,” he continued.

Ted Cruz.

Since when is the President the healer in chief? This was a riot and bad things happen in riots. We are one step away from a Civil War and the Right has been taking the brunt of the abuse.

Are we sure the car driver planned on running people down or was terrified he was going to get beat up and punched the gas? Either way he was a 20 yr old kid in a middle of a violent riot.

Exactly. This riot didn't come out of nowhere. City fathers of Charlottesville decided that history didn't matter when it comes to pc. PC rules.Sad day for America when locals decide what is history and what is not.

Of course that's no excuse for what happened.This entire event should have been avoided in favor of the court system.A well financed group in search of preserving historical truth should have won the case even if it had to go all the way to the SC.

The hard left has been changing our history books for years yet few ever riot.

Truth is history remains blind. It either happened or it didn't. If a statue is erected to remind folks of the local history how can anyone claim its not history?

Plenty of white demonstrators were carrying weapons, but they didn't use them. VA is an open carry state.

Here is some onsite reporting of the event giving the other side
