The same police we are supposed to call instead of protecting ourselves with our guns? Ugh.
And yet the Mayor of Charlottesville gets headlines blaming Trump’s ‘ lack of leadership”
President Trump: don’t let them make this your “ Hurricane Katrina”
Considering that both sides came looking for trouble I’m not sure I blame the police for not wanting to wind up in the middle, job or no job.
Kay, so SAN JOSE east, basically.
Trump supporters funneled right into an ambush.
The silver lining:
San Jose is now getting sued, and (my best Trump-speak, here) BIGLY.
“because people were congregating at Lee Park and Emancipation Park wearing helmets, body armor, carrying big heavy sticks. Nobody was intent on peace here from either side. People were intent on causing havoc and causing damage. “
This is identical to Berkeley. Antifa openly publishes their suggested battle gear for their Black Block mobs. There’s ad hoc groups who oppose them that are now doing the same. This isn’t secret.
These city officials know exactly what can happen. It’s not like they don’t care- they do. They want the violence to go forward. If they didn’t they would let the police control these mobs and keep them separated.
The story I’ve heard from one of the organizers is that they worked with the Charlottesville police for two months to obtain a permit for their demonstration. They got their permit but two weeks before the protest date, Charlottesville’s Mayor or Managing Director pulled their permit, denying them their assemble. They took the city to court and a FEDERAL judge reenstated the permit, allowing them to conduct their protest. On the day of the protest, the anti protest crowd had already assembled before the scheduled start of the protesting, blocking and harassing the protestors. The Charlottesville police were nowhere to be seen and the anti crowd started their violence. It is obvious the city and Governor did NOTHING to insure the exercise of free speech on behalf of the protestors and ALLOWED the violence and injuries to happen. This is what we have come to. If you are black, you will be given the “freedom to destroy” - Ferguson. If you are whiter, you have No rights.
“Nobody was intent on peace here from either side.”
No, one side was prepared to create violence. The other was prepared to counter violence.

My support for the police is ebbing quickly.
An estimated 30% of the Alt-Right people were openly armed with guns. There wasn’t going to be a serious challenge to that,
In a sense the police were put in the non win situation
“IF YOU ARE UP TO YOUR NECK IN $HIITE & SOMEONE THROWS A BUCKET OF SNOT AT YOU, DO YOU DUCK?”
If the Police have NO confidence in their Mayor/City Council/Dept Heads etc then why get your head bashed in when you will eventually end up getting blamed if you use force to quell things.
THAT Said, quit drawing the paycheck if you are not willing or able to DO YOUR JOB, which sadly enough, includes protecting the citizenry from itself at time.
Is this another media concoction by the same venues participating with the major difference being it’s not being promoted by none other than a President of the united States. Claiming the perpetrator of an assult killed in an attempt to take a security guards gun was a “victim” which inflamed racial attacks that led to a score of deaths that has yet to be answered for..
What actually occured here ? Is it true that the 20 year old kid who’s being accused of intentionally driving into a crowd of protesters actually had the vehicle he was driving surrounded by a mob and was threatened by them drove off in an attemptto escape harm ? Winds up killing someone ?
This is the Paul Wellstone funeral Part II.
The evil degenerate baby killer communists are attempting to equate resistance to Marxism with White Supremacy and Neo-Nazism.
Every American communist from Warren Wilhelm to Elizabeth Warren are busy getting out in front of cameras and CALLING ALL TRUMP SUPPORTERS NAZIS!!!!
Like the head of the motorcycle gang said in Dawn of the Dead, “They just effed up real bad”

“We’re leaving. It’s too dangerous.”
If that can be proven, it dovetails with Chicago Mayor Richard Daley’s famous malapropism:
“The police are not here to _create_ disorder. The police are here to _preserve_ disorder!”
President Trump and team, it is time to call out the Left by name and Soros and Obama BY NAME!!!
You are letting them control the narrative by not digging and throwing BIG LIGHTS on the tactics...fine, call some of the protesters racists, but giving the Left a free pass still gives the media and Soros and Obama the upper hand.
We are your supporters and we have your back. We are pleading with you to shout the truth.
The truth is in the threads on this blog. Surely your team’s are savvy enough to go after Soros...if not now, when???
“Doug McKelway: We are now beginning to hear criticism bubble up on all sides of this event about the initial slow response by the police. When I got out of my car yesterday in Charlottesville about 10:30 in the morning you knew this was a bad scene and bad things were going to be happening because people were congregating at Lee Park and Emancipation Park wearing helmets, body armor, carrying big heavy sticks. Nobody was intent on peace here from either side. People were intent on causing havoc and causing damage. And even as wounded were being brought out of the park police were sitting idly by. I was standing off a cordoned off area where the police had set up as a staging area, the state police, and they said you can come in here this is a safe area. But when the tear gas started to fly, thrown by protesters, the police themselves began to evacuate then. I asked the guy who was in charge, “Where you going?” He said, “We’re leaving. It’s too dangerous.” They had a chance to nip this thing in the bud and they chose not to.” http://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3576878/posts
There seems to be vile collusion between liberal mayors and the violent forces, who hate Trump, by prohibiting their police from protecting Trump supporters from BLMers, Antifa and other hired left wing thugs
This collusion appeared to be very evident at Charlottesville this past weekend.
Remember the riots in San Jose when Trump came to speak? The San Jose cops under orders from their liberal mayor let Trump supporters be harassed, attacked and chased by hired thugs.
Then, the first UC Berkeley riots last year were a replication of the San Jose attacks on Trump supporters. The cops were under orders from the mayor to let the Antifa thugs run wild to harm, harass and chase our people away.
The mayor of Charlottesville, apparently attended UC Berkeley. So, he would have been very familiar with how to set up riots like this by controlling his police like the Berkeley mayor did!
I posted shortly after the Berkeley riots had started, “That my wife had asked during the early so called tv news why the cops just stood by watched our people being attack?”
I told her, that it was apparent the cops had orders not to protect our people.
It is real simple. In any city with a police force, the mayor and maybe the city council tell their police chief what his/her cops can and cannot do in these situations.
So the individual cops with their mortgages, kids in braces and maxed out credit cards just stand by when our people are attacked without any police protection.
Remember, when the mayors shut down their cops at Chicago and later, in other cities did nothing when the anti Trump protesters tried to shut Trump down in his appearances in 2016!
In the above riots/near riots, the mayors and their mediots blamed Trump and his voters, not the criminal rioters.
